You can change background image to color

Open templates/ja_mitius/css/custom.css file

Add new this script

body {
background: blue;
}

You can find css for the background of your site, see the screenshot

+ Css file
<blockquote>templates/ja_mitius/css/template.css</blockquote>

+ Script css


body {
background: url(../images/body_bg.jpg) no-repeat center top #000
color: #444
font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 13px;
line-height: 20px;
margin: 0;
padding-top: 30px;
}


+ Background path
<blockquote>templates/ja_mitius/images/body_bg.jpg</blockquote>

If it still doesn’t work, you can send the URL of your site. I shall check it directly on your site

1. I have tried to change the colour as mentioned above but unable to run Compile Less to CSS . When I click on Compile Less to CSS, It says Unexpected error. Please refresh the page try again later.. I have talked to my host, he has tried to increase the memory limit upto 128 mb but that also didn’t work. Whether this is hosting resources error or something else. If it is related to server, Can you please guide what Hosting resource is restricting Less compiling.

2. Further, I have change the background image also but image is shown in only half upper part of the site. Once these issues will be sorted out, I will setup the homepage and layout for other pages.

Site URL is http://www.cajunction.org

1) Compile LESS to CSS option in JA T3 framework is compatible with hostings and we have not received any bug / issue related to hosting. The problem on your site is from something else and I would need to take a closer look at your site. Please pm me admin access and ftp account of your site. I shall check it for you.

2) About the background image problem, you can fix it by

from

body {
background-image: url(../../../templates/ja_mitius/images/themes/blue/body_bg.jpg);
}

change to

body {
background url(../../../templates/ja_mitius/images/themes/blue/body_bg.jpg);
}

The background of your site will repeat and show on full site

1. I have sent PM to you with admin and ftp access details of my site. Please check

2. As you have mentioned the solution for repeating the image so that it will show on complete background full page. But when I have uploaded the image with same dimensions as that of provided by you. Why we need to do such customisation. Complete image one time should fill up the complete background area, as that in demo site.

Please see the following updates in the problem:

1. I have increased the memory limit to 128 MB but no result.

2. I have installed JA mitius on localhost, its is showing same error. ” Unexpected error, Please refresh the page and try again

3. I have logged in on the demo site at t3-framework.org and tried to compile less to css on t3 blank . But there also it is showing the same error. Hosting of t3-framework.org must be compatible at least with with joomlart t3 framework. If compile LESS to CSS is not even working on t3-framework.org admin demo joomla 2.5 , then how we can expect it to process on our servers.

Please look into it urgently.

From your screenshot, I see the problem – you are editing template and compile LESS to CSS and thats the reason you got the problem

If you want to compile LESS to CSS go to link: /administrator/index.php?option=com_templates&view=style&layout=edit&id=115#overview

+ If you don’t know much about LESS and structure of css on JA Mitius Template, you can easily customize it in the custom.css file and not care about less

Open templates/ja_mitius/css/custom.css file and customize it

Custom.css file will not be overridden when you click compile LESS to CSS
