Hi,

I would like to know how to specify background image for a particular view such as “featured” in a component (com_content).

I want to set a background image only for Featured and Blog view of com_content. I tried it by adding

[Masshead option="com_content" view="featured" title=" " background="images/masshead/abstract.jpg"][/Masshead]
.
It works fine, but the background image is getting loaded above the slideshow in the Home page also, without dark shadow on both sides.

I think, my problem will be solved if I can set the background image for com_content and selectively disabling loading of that image in the home page which masks the slideshow.

I can use “display:none” in css after that image get loaded, but the size of that 1270x700px image is around 93kb which will slow down the homepage. So I would like to disable loading that image only for the homepage while using it for com_content.

Please help,
Thank you.

Hi arjunkrishna,

May I am misunderstanding something but if you do not want that module to display at the homepage just going to the module back-end, there at the Menu Assignment section, you unselect the module for home menu item. It would not display at the homepage aftwards.

Let me know if that’s not your ideal 🙂
