Editing Background Image

Beaver Builder
1

Really want to tap into this plug in - I am a business owner not a developer. Cannot even figure out how to edit the background photo in the template - no matter what size I choose, it is way too big and distorted.

Hey Ross,

Welcome to the BB forums! :slight_smile:

Are you working on a live URL? Do you think you can share it so we can check?

Hi Ben

No - I have lots of pages I want to develop but could not get past first base. However, I would happily publish and send you the link if I knew how to save my work so far lol. I could send you a screen shot if you like

Feeling useless - I would like to be able to use the basics of the plugin but that seems beyond me

Hi Ross,

Are you referring to a background image on your theme or one you have added via Beaver Builder?

The one on your theme isn’t appearing as you have some custom CSS preventing it from showing. For example, you appear to have added the following:

body.custom-background {
    background-color: #000;
}
body { background-image: none; }

If you remove the body { background-image: none; } CSS it should resolve your issue.

Thanks,
Danny

Thank you very much both Danny and Ben. I am muddling along - I am in a page building project right now and am making some amateur type progress. I am loathe to tinker with CSS as it is beyond my comfort level.

I plan to take my work as far as I comfortably can and then hope I can find a subject matter expert I can hire to jazz it all up - technically and aesthetically.

Anyone wishing to put their name forward for some freelancing will be most welcome!
