Boldgrid Theme "Vacation" Background image not filling page
Hello,
I have installed the Boldgrid theme "Vacation" for the website www.egalitarianviewpoint.com. I want the background image to show from the top to the bottom of the page as you scroll down. It's OK if it "tiles" as you go down the page. It works perfectly in the "Customize" view in editing mode, but only goes part way down the page in the "view page" screen while in editing mode, and that is also how it looks when published. I tried using a larger image for the background but it didn't fix the problem. Currently, I have the blank spaces between sections filled with fixed images, but it does not look nearly as good or as professional.
Is there any fix so that the published site reflects the "customize" view?
Thank you for your help - I hope I've been clear enough in describing the issue.

Thank you for your question regarding filling the background with an image in the Vacation theme. We spent quite some time looking into this, and there is no "built-in" way to overlay your background image over the theme. This is due to the specific way the theme is coded.
It is possible to custom-code/develop a solution, but you would have to test and troubleshoot this further.
You may want to consider using a different theme that automatically implements an image as the background.
Thank you,
