Make Profile Cover Photo Transparent?

[Stormwolfe]

Good day and my apologies if I am posting this question in the wrong forum.

Prior to upgrading to 4.3, I was using this code in our theme's custom.css to make the profile cover image transparent.

#elProfileHeader{
  background-color: transparent;}
}

Since the upgrade, it has stopped working. I contacted the theme's developer and they thought the issue was a missing end brace. I added that, still no luck.

I have the option to upload a cover image turned off for all user groups (even Admins). The default cover image is really awful with my site's theme.

Is there something else that needs done to make the cover photo (image) go away? If so, could you give me the fix in Village Idiot terminology? I'm not a coder or developer of any kind.

Any and all help is greatly appreciated.

Post your site URL so the actual code can be inspected and a solution tested live.

Sorry about that! I usually remember to add the URL

Try:

#elProfileHeader .ipsCoverPhoto_photo { display:none; }

Getting closer - I think.

That code removed the image (pattern), but there is still a solid color background. I tried combining the original code...

This

#elProfileHeader{
  background-color: transparent;}
}

Still didn't work.

This is what I have using only the code you provided.

Okay. Then this:

#elProfileHeader .ipsCoverPhoto_photo { display:none; } 
#elProfileHeader .ipsPageHead_special { background-color: transparent; }
#elProfileHeader .ipsCoverPhoto_container { background-color: transparent; }

Still doesn't work. I cleared my browser's cache too, just in case.

I appreciate the help though.

Take 3 …

#elProfileHeader .ipsCoverPhoto_photo { display:none; } 
.ipsPageHead_special { background-color: transparent; }
#elProfileHeader .ipsCoverPhoto_container { background-color: transparent !important; }

YAY!

Worked perfect.

Thank you so very much!
