Hi,

You have to edit /templates/ja-social/css/template.css and add the following code:


body#bd {
/* Add some background picture */
background: url(../images/bg_main.jpg) no-repeat;
background-position:center 0px;
background-attachment: fixed;
}


Regards

Manos

Hi,

You’ll have to do it in the custom theme template.css

If You have any other question do not hesitate to ask.

Hello I just copied the green-color theme from core/themes and pasted it in local/themes renamed it customtheme. When i go to (local/themes/customtheme/css) the customtheme css file there is no template.css but there is template-ie.css and template-rtl.css. Do I customize the template-ie.css and template-rtl.css? or should I copy template.css from templates/ja-social/css and paste in the local/themes/customtheme/css file? thanks

Hello,

You don’t need to copy anything, just create and upload blank template.css file and add the changes You want to make to the original template.css file.
