Transparent Menu Bar – Background Body visible (Vantage)

Hey Hugo,

is it possible to change the Opacity from body at Menu Bar Navigation to let the background image shining through?

Already tried:

zoom: 1;
filter: alpha(opacity=50);
opacity: 0.5;

But I’m also wanting the wrapper transparent displayed ;)

Best regards,
Ludger

    Hi Ludger

    To set opacity on the menu you could try:

    /* Vantage Navigation Opacity */.main-navigation {  background: rgba(52, 53, 56, 0.5); }

    Then for the header, body and footer, in order:

    /* Vantage Full Width Set Page Opacity */header#masthead {background: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.5) !important; }#main {background: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.5) !important; }#colophon {background: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.5) !important; }

    Just delete the selectors you don’t need. 255, 255, 255 needs to be changed to your color. All CSS to be inserted under Appearance > Custom CSS.

      Hi Mr Cahyono

      Which elements of your site would you like at adjust the opacity on?

  3. 10 years, 23 days ago AS Cahyono

    Hi Andrew
    just when menu background stay on top (transparent)
    not when it’s scrolling. (when its scrolling not transparent)
    hope that you understand for what I mean.
    sorry for my english.

    FYI, style I used is logo on menu bar, boxed layout.

    Hi, I Work Here

    Right now you have:

    .main-navigation {
    background: rgba(153, 116, 46, 0.5);
    }
    

    That applies to the menu both at it’s top position AND the menu once it starts to scroll. If you want to apply the opacity to only the scrolling menu use:

    .main-navigation.sticky {
    background: rgba(153, 116, 46, 0.5);
    }
    

    Or the other way around. If you only want opacity when at the top but not when sticky then you would say:

    .main-navigation {
    background: rgba(153, 116, 46, 0.5); 
    }
    .main-navigation.sticky {
    background: rgba(153, 116, 46, 1); 
    }
    

    Once you scroll a new menu is used with the class .sticky.

    Hope this makes sense.

    Superb assistance
    thanks Andrew.
    But actually I’m eager to see main navigation is no background it’s self.
    I mean is it possible to remove main navigation background on style.css, when it stay on top
    I’d like to see metaslider (slideshow or big image) as shown as header, where there are logo and menu (main navigation) above it.
    and I want to website background as same as main nav (menu) background.
    But when it’s scrolling (sticky), there’s color on main nav. background.
    it would be nice
    thanks again.

    kind regards.
