Re: How to get background to be responsive in Divider template?

Post by dnlyko »

I have built 2 successful sites using WYSIWYG
Both are .wbs file format
The template for 'dividers is .wtp
Am I using the correct template?

I re-downloaded the template this morning and opened the .wtp file and...
left clicked on 'More Properties' bottom right
left clicked on 'Style' tab
changed 'Background' / 'Mode:' to image
selected my image in the 'Image:' browse field
selected cover option
pressed OK
changed page name to index
published to server

and of course it does not display correctly as described in my first post in this thread.

Please, what am I doing wrong?

standard projects are in wbs format
template are in wtp format. wtp files include images and other fiels so it can be more easily transferred to another computer.

As previously mentioned, Safari does not support fixed+cover.
This is documented here (unrelated to WWB) https://caniuse.com/#search=background-size

But is this what you are looking for?

Yes, that is exactly what i’m trying to achieve.

I don’t think it is a Safari issue but an IOS issue.

I use Chrome, Firefox, DuckDuckGo and Edge on my Apple devices and the issue appears on all those browsers.

I don’t have any Android devices to view my web projects

Does my example work for you on those devices?

Here's what I did:

Step 1
open the divider template

Step 2
open the page properties:
- mode: image
- image: tribute-small.jpg
- do not repeat
- alignment center center
- size: cover

Step 3
remove the background image from: home , banner1, banner2, banner3

Step 4
in page properties -> advanced -> use safari mobile background fix

Also, make sure you have the latest update of the software (14.3.4)
I use Chrome, Firefox, DuckDuckGo and Edge on my Apple devices and the issue appears on all those browsers.
On iOS, all these browsers use the same browser engine = safari/webkit.

To insert a image:
Page Properties->Style->Background and select image from the drop down then in image browse to were the image is and insert.
If the image doesn't display it is due to it having a invalid name.
See the following:
