    Hello!

    Why the background image in a page or in other page widget will not resize with the page?
    Did i miss something or this is how it work?

    I see around that there are plug in for wordpress, for some dollars, that do it…so the background image will not resize with the page????

    I remember it worked with html, asp, and old code….!!
    Sigh 🙁

    hi Roman,
    i dont find now a site that looks like mine, anyway i make 2 clear screenshots:

    1)
    https://onedrive.live.com/redir?resid=A5588F5B361A1EAD!6312&authkey=!AIVfM3f73-8Ubx4&v=3&ithint=photo%2c.jpg

    2)
    https://onedrive.live.com/redir?resid=A5588F5B361A1EAD!6313&authkey=!ALNMboPJLJwtg1Y&v=3&ithint=photo%2c.jpg

    1 – is the home page where i’d like to have only the backgound resizable toghether with footer (copyright,info, etc..) and logo and text.
    2 – is a example page where i used the [fullwidth] with “paddingTop=”100px” paddingBottom=”100px” to have the background without blank line up and down and with these options:

    [fullwidth backgroundcolor=”” backgroundimage=”http://localhost:8080/ciampininew/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/aperitivox.jpg” backgroundrepeat=”no-repeat” backgroundposition=”center top” bordersize=”0px” bordercolor=”” paddingTop=”100px” paddingBottom=”100px”]
    xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
    xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
    xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

    [/fullwidth]

    and the background “dont resize with the page” when i resize it smallest, but resize when i resize the page bigger!
    I’d like the same effect i described before “backgound resizable toghether with footer (copyright,info, etc..) and logo and text, bigger or smallest!

    hope this help
    thanks again Roman! 🙂

    I created a page, selected Blank template on the right side, then I picked an image for Background Image for Main Content Area , 100% Background Image – Yes, Background Repeat – No repeat. for me it resize the background image when I am resizing the window.

    i made the same now,
    and i have only a blank page! 🙁

    here is the html code:
    https://onedrive.live.com/redir?resid=A5588F5B361A1EAD!6329&authkey=!AChpzx04K1VZs3A&ithint=file%2c.txt

    anyway, like i ask before:

    i make a simple page, with a center image logo and i have also a fixed footer with copyright info and so on.
    then I set

    “Page options”:
    – display header: no
    – Page: Full Width Yes

    Background options:
    Layout: default

    Following options only work in boxed mode:
    left all default

    Following options work in boxed and wide mode:
    Background Image for Main Content Area: “my image”
    100% Background Image = yes
    Background Repeat = tile

    and all the other options are defaults!

    if i preview the page i dont see the image, only blank background and the footer…
    …BUT if i set this:

    Quote:
    <div style=”text-align: center; color: #c9b57d; font-size: 18px; height: 800px”>
    </div>

    i see the background image and the image is resizable!!!

    …..BUT i have a fixed heigth (i used a DIV tag) !

    if i resize the page the image RESIZE CORRECTLY but scrolling (down and up) i see logo,text, all, moving over the background image….
    and the background image looks like flashing!

    what i mean is:
    there is a way to make “all resizable? (background and every objects over it) without having them scolling over the background image
    and without using the “DIV TAG”?

    Sure i’m doing something wrong…but i dunno what!!!

    hi Roman, i have another question.
    check this site:

    http://www.iphoneitalia.com/

    as you see the background image is “always” at the center of the browser and have a fixed size, not resizable!
    I tried every setting but i didnt find how to set it…!
    I got the scrolling contents in the center of the page (using boxed mode), but the background is never at center of the broswer page and fixed!
    Looks like i have only 2 options:
    – background at the center but only resizable and the image is always distorted,
    – background is fixed but not at center, is on the left

    suggestions?

    ok try this, uncheck the 100% Background option and add this to the Custom CSS section field:

    Code:
    body {background-position:top center;background-attachment: fixed;}

    it will keep the original size of the background, it will have fixed position and centered. this worked for me when I set background image for Background Image For Outer Areas In Boxed Mode

    great Roman, this work!
    Fixed position and centered, thanks a lot!

    I’d like to resolve the other background problem, when you have time.

    “there is a way to make “all resizable” using “[fullwidth backgroundcolor=”” backgroundimage=””” etc…” ?
    (background and every objects over it) without having them scolling over the background image and without using the “DIV TAG”?”

    If you dont understand what i mean/write (sorry for my english) i’ll try to explain it better,
    let me know and thank again! 🙂

    And without using fullwidth?
    I mean a simple page with background a center logo and some text, “all resizable”
    BUT without having them scolling over the background image?

    Maybe i write it wrong or there is no way?
    Thanks Roman 🙂
    Have a nice day, always!
