Hello,
Thank you for your question about allowing the background image to show through a widget. You can accomplish this with custom CSS. Here are the steps:
Log into BoldGrid
Click the Customize link.
Click the Advanced option.
Click Custom JS & CSS.
Open the editor for Custom Theme CSS.
Copy and Paste the following below any existing code:
You can adjust the opacity (how transparent it is) by change the ".5" in the code above. It goes from 0-1. For example: 0 will be more transparent, while 1 will display "as is" with a gray background.
.palette-primary .site-header .well { background-color: rgba(102,102,102,.5); }
Thank you, John-Paul
