[Resolved] toolset layout to display on posts template and full background image on posts

This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem:
The user has a full background image on some pages and would like to have them for the posts pages too.

Solution:
The theme applies a white background on posts pages template. This must be resolved by a custom CSS style:

body.custom-background #main-content {
    background: transparent;
}

We can scope this style to specific page by ID:

body.custom-background.page-id-559 #main-content {
    background: transparent;
}

Hello and thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

I am not to understand what do you mean by "get toolset layout to display on posts"

I'll still suggest checking this reply which explains how to use an image in the background for the whole page or for a certain layout container
https://toolset.com/forums/topic/container-full-image-background/#post-369593

You may also want to check our reference site and how we created a background image on single property pages:
- https://toolset.com/reference-site/toolset-real-estate/

It is also worth to mention this documentation article https://toolset.com/documentation/user-guides/layouts/

Please ignore all my previous suggestions, they were about working with Toolset Layouts.

As you are building the "Inventory" page with blocks, I would suggest doing the following:
- Add a "Toolset Container" block to the page.
- In the block settings(right sidebar), choose your background image.
- Drag the View block and drop it inside this container block.

About tabs, you will need to install a plugin that offers a Tabs block, then insert inside each tab the content that you desire(gallery, text, field values, etc.). Here are some plugins that offer a tabs block:
- https://wordpress.org/plugins/kadence-blocks/
- https://wordpress.org/plugins/ultimate-blocks/
- https://wordpress.org/plugins/advanced-gutenberg/

I hope this helps. Let me know if you need anything.

It seems that your theme defines a white background color for the main content area. Check this screenshot hidden link

To make the background transparent for all the website add the following CSS code to the WordPress Customizer in Appearance.

body.custom-background #main-content {
    background: transparent;
}

If you want to apply it only for the Inventory page, add the following code:


body.custom-background.page-id-559 #main-content {
    background: transparent;
}

where do I apply can you send me a screen shot where to apply this code thanks
