    Hi Jehannehya

    If you’re asking about the first row here: http://caletre.fr/. The background color of the slider container is showing because nothing exists on top of it. The problem lies in Meta Slider. Check that the slider is working properly. Perhaps try inserting it into a text page and see if it’s playing as you’d expect it to.

    I’m sorry, my english is definitively not clear ;)
    There are a video in full screen behind the page.
    I put a transparent png, 1600x 1200, in the meta slider just to be sure that
    a transparent space will reveal the background.
    I’ve got the same problem in all the page, i’l try to put a background (in the main) but all the panel, maybe raw and elements have a sort of white background.

    I use the same theme on this site :
    leseumenides.org
    look all the panels have a transparent background by default, we could see the background.

    thanks for your ideas in advance

    Can you try the following at Appearance > Custom CSS:

    #main {
    background: transparent;
    }

    Hello,
    Don’t work, sorry.
    always the same problem. I put a video in the background on full-screen, can see it when i scroll to much, it is on the back but a sort of background in the raw hide it.

    Thanks

    Please, can you take a screenshot and indicate using arrows the areas you’re referring to and the areas that are the issue etc. We’ll do our best to assist from there.

    Re,

    i want to do the same thing as here :
    http://etplussiaffinite.org/

    I made this with vantage and Cincopa.
    But to do this, i use a tricks

    header#masthead{
    height:1000px;
    }

    not really clean !
    Can i make the background video appear without this ?

    In this one :
    http://www.leseumenides.org/conf-felix/

    there is no tricks, the background is visible (with mb.YTPLayer) ?

  7. jehannehya 10 years, 5 months ago

    Maybe do this like that,
    but how i can modified the masthead only on the homepage ?

    The layout here, in my humble opinion, it’s ideal: http://www.leseumenides.org/conf-felix/. Text over a transparent background can be challenging for the user to read.

    It looks to me that you’ve edited the main stylesheet on that site. #main usually looks like this:

    #main {
        background: #fcfcfc;
        padding: 35px;
    }

    This is how it looks on that site:

    demo.siteorigin.com/media="all"
    #main {
        padding: 35px;
    }

    The same could be achieved by adding the following to Appearance > Custom CSS:

    #main {
    background: transparent;
    }

    and using: mb.YTPLayer.

    The masthead was also edited in your example site. You can use the following Custom CSS to replicate:

    header#masthead {
    background: transparent;
    }
