Background won't update via Shoppica Theme CP

ThemeBurn SupportForumsOpenCart ThemesShoppica OpenCart ThemeBackground won't update via Shoppica Theme CP

This topic has been marked as resolved.

Hi there,

Before the most recent update I had a fixed background which looked great by pasting the following code into my screen.css

body.s_layout_fixed { 
padding: 0px; 
background-image:url(../images/BACKGROUND.jpg) !important; 
background-repeat: repeat-x repeat-y; 
background-attachment:fixed; 
} 

Now with the ability to do this via the theme cp I add the settings in, and nothing updates.

Also, when I paste my code above, the background shows up as before, but scrolls with the content, therefore it is not fixed.

How do I rectify this to keep a fixed background?

go to module/shoppica in admin. there go to background section, enable it, , add your background image, position like you want it, save and then return main page of shoppica settings, and hit launch color schemer. when is launched, your background can be chosed from last section, called texture. select it and now will work.

Hello.

I´ve the same problem to insert my own background-image.

Where is background section in module/shoppica?

I go to module/Shoppica Theme CP but I can not see that

enetr opencart administration. go to extensions, than modules, Shoppica Theme CP, hit edit, and you will have a window compose of several tabs. the last tab is called background

see the original message from here. you will have to add in screen.css the code that is there mentioned. replace his filename with yours. if you did that than set the absolute adress meaning url(www.your site.com/image/BACKGROUND.jpg) after you place the background in /public_html/image folder

i’ve followed your instructions but my background doesn’t appear.

None of my background textures will update…Squares, Noise, Rough. It worked when I installed the theme yesterday. I had set it to no texture. Today, I had tried adding my own and it didn’t work. My CP won’t remove the custom texture I had added. I click ‘Remove’ and then ‘Save’ and it still appears.

Oh I just realized you can’t change the background if Layout Type is set to Full Width

thanks honeybadger! changing layout to “Fixed Width” did the job! I have backgrounds now!

Hi honeybadger and stuffthatspins,

You are correct: there couldn’t be any background (image or color) in full width mode. Its not a bug, but intentional feature.

Maybe it is our mistake to leave the background dropdown enabled in the full width. We will try to fix this in the next update.

Best regards,

Will this work for 1.4.9.5 version? If so where do I need to add the code above in the screen.css. Can’t quite seem to get this working for our custom background.

Thanks

I solved my own problem but have posted the solution just in case someone is needing the same info for version 1.4.9.5.

Go to catalog/view/theme/shoppica/images/texture_1png and just create your own image to replace the “texture_1.png” image in that location with another image called “texture_1.png”

In catalog/view/theme/shoppica/stylesheet/screen.css on or around line 1445 replace the below…

FROM…..


body.s_layout_fixed {
padding: 20px 0;
background-repeat: repeat;
background-position: top left;
}

To.....


body.s_layout_fixed {
padding: 20px 0;
background-repeat: repeat;
background-position: center top;
background-attachment:fixed;
}

Next launch your color picker from the admin side of Shoppica CP and choose texture_1png or whichever of the 3 textures you replaced with your new image.

That should do it!
