Hello! I would like my ghost site to have a global tiled background image (or even better, a background image that doesn’t appear under the column of post text on individual posts, but let’s start with the first one.) I’ve set up a local dev ghost environment and am modifying the London theme–what I ultimately want is a larger banner at the top of the main page, something more like the Casper layout, with a background image behind the whole thing like a watermark, but the watermark is the main thing I have been able to make changes to the fonts, uploading a custom font file, changing the fonts.css file to include the new files, so I think I have the right access to the assets folder, yarn running in dev mode, etc. Here’s what I’ve tried:
- I copied the background file to /mytheme/assets/images/PatentBG.jpg, restarted ghost, etc.
- I’ve tried all kinds of code injections; it seems like that would be simpler than figuring out what to change in default.hbs or whatever. My last attempt was:
.gh-site { background-image: url:({{asset “/images/PatentBG.jpg”}}) }
I’ve tried that with gh-header, gh-article, and gh-post and various variations of using handlebars or the path /assets/images/PatentBG.jpg and none of those options are changing anything on the site, as far as I can tell. Is this something that can be accomplished, and if so, how?
Thank you very much–I am obviously very new to this.
