Hi,
I've created this code in Scarlett (would apply to other templates here?)

1. Question

#container_main {
background-image: url(images/backgrounds/grass.jpg) !important;
background-repeat: repeat;
}

It only creates a repeating pattern on the home/index.php page but not the other pages.
How can I get the background to show on all pages in my menu?

2. Question - is it possible to have a different #container_main repeat background on different pages using CSS with Page Suffix used?
I've turned on Page Suffix in the menu items:

Home - home = .home (uses image 1)
About - about = .about (uses image 2)
Directions - directions = .directions (uses image 3)

I'm getting lost researching on the internet.
Many thanks for any help,
Peggy

Hello

1. Try using the full URL to your image..

Eg.

#container_main {

  background-image: url(https://www.yoursite.com/images/backgrounds/grass.jpg) !important;

  background-repeat: repeat;

}


2. As Joomla adds the page class to the component area rather than to the body, I am sorry to say this is not possible. I have changed this in Joomla 4 (https://github.com/joomla/joomla-cms/pull/18967) however that is a few months away. Your only option is to create 2 template styles with the above CSS.

Thank you again - was not aware of using duplicate template styles. I feel like I have a brand new box of crayons to colour with.
