What is the correct image path for the image you want to use?

Also, have you given any of the alternative CSS methods FOUND HERE[/url] a try?

the imagepath is: http://www.domain.(de)/images/bg.jpg

An yes, I tried from the samples (that is where i got my sample code from to play with…). But again – what is the correct css-file to write the code in???
My problem is, that i still don´t understand the structure of the css-files. Is there any guide which explains the different css-files (template.css, bootstrap.css, off-canvas.css, megamenu.css, eg.) I can´t find Information about it…
joomlart wiki seems to be down?

thanks william

thanks william

Hi William,

With Purity III template – which is built with new T3 framework, it’s recommended to add your custom CSS code into file /templates/purity_iii/css/custom.css (if this file isn’t existing in your site now, just create it)

Best,

Hi Tom, it doesn’t work for me. using Purity 3 i Just want a a bckgrd Pic for all sites. I copied the code from virtual24 and put it in the custom css file. it didn#t work out.

background: url(images/bg.jpg) no-repeat center center fixed; -webkit-background-size: cover; -moz-background-size: cover; -o-background-size: cover; background-size: cover;

dont i need a selector or some stuff before that? i tried *{ … } but that didn#t work also. i cant provide passwd and url cause’ it’s installed locally @ the moment. can you help me?
