    Hi there

    The theme is really great - but there is an issue with the way you have implemented the Background image.

    There is currently no way to select a BG the usual way in the 'Appearance>Customise' section of Wordpress, where you can choose a small image element, and then tile, repeat etc. the image.

    You also do not provide a button or setting to simply 'turn off' the current 'fence' image and replace the BG with a specified hex colour. The only option you offer is to fully replace the bg with an image- which can be very large file and take a long time to load.

    So I have two requests:

    1. In the next update of the theme you provide an extra two settings in the Theme Options>General and Wordpress Settings:
    A. Background Image (same as currently)
    B. Select BG Colour (Hex)
    C. Allow Worpdress>Appearance>Customise setting to include the usual BG settings, where you can set tiled image, repeats etc.

    2. I the meantime, can you please let us know how we can add image tiling etc, or a specified bg colour in place of the current 'fence' bg, by using css etc.

    Many thanks

    Hello,

    Theme already contain features you are asking.
    Please go to the Dashboard > Theme options > General settings
    From there you can change background image and logo image for your site.

    For background color.
    Paste this code in Custom CSS
    Appearance > Theme Option > Styling Option > Custom CSS

    Code:
    .wrapper {
background: #fff;
}
    Note: Add your color value in place of #fff

    Hi Nitesh

    sorry you are not correct- the theme only provides one of three features normally found in Wordpress: the ability to replace an entire background image.

    The two things it does NOT do are:

    1. Provide the ability to replace a BG image with a colour (you have provided css but this is a hack, not built into the theme)

    2. Provide the ability to insert a small image and tile and repeat

    Can i ask that you provide these functions in next theme update, or reinstate them into the standard WP install via 'Appearance>Background'

    thanks

    Hello,

    It is not possible to do with our theme, sorry.

    You can change the background color and, apply tiles and repeat property on the images, only through css code.
