Hope this is in the right forum...

So I found the perfect theme style for my forum but I want to personalize it. I have changed the background but the theme background remains, as if it's "covering" the base background I added. I want to get rid of that. Currently using "Design-" by Josh1. I have a feeling it's the encoding but I have NO CLUE how to encode, and it's getting very frustrating... Even changing word colors isn't working... (topic for another thread elsewhere..)

If anyone can assist and point me in the right direction that would be awesome!

Hi,

This is because CSS is overriding the CP. Just Go to Display >> Colors >> CSS Stylesheet.

Look for: background-image:url(http://fc04.deviantart.net/images/i/2002/26/9/1/Misconstrue_-_Image_1.jpg);

You can either remove it or change the URL. Like:

Code:


background-image:url(yourimagewebsitehere.com);

If you remove the code, the CP function should work. And it should be easier for you too.

Regards.

Thank you for the thread relocation, mod

Ace, it worked but created an error message.

We have counted a different number of "{" and of "}". It means your CSS risks to be not valid and will not be posted correctly on your forum.

We advise you to reread your code.

As long as I got it to work, I aint changing anything else...except the word coloring...different topic...

It means that you have some codes in your CSS stylesheet that does not have a opening or closing or there are extra ones.  You need to fix it.

Please start a new topic and post your CSS stylesheet using the code tags.
