How To build A fast WordPress Website With Gutenberg | No Caching | No Plugins | Full tutorial

[@rich5759]

Thanks for the tips! Is it possible to set an image background for a specific page with the Gutenberg editor? I know I can set backgrounds per block, but I need to know how to set a full page image background for a specific page and have been pulling my hair out trying to figure this out. Hopefully you can help.

That is not possible through Gutenberg. You have to use CSS for that.

@@adriansticea Ok thanks, I did it with CSS, but now I see that the block content is completely covering up the middle of the background image. Any ideas on how to fix this? The background image is kinda transparent, so Ideally I'd like to see the background image showing through the page/block content.

@@rich5759 you have to set a transparent background for the rest of the blocks / groups

@@adriansticea Yeah, that's tricky, seems none of the blocks will allow a transparent color.

@@rich5759 You can give a class to every group something like -> 'transparent' and then in css you an do something like -> .transparent {background: transparent } or .transparent {background: rgba(255,255,255,0)}
