Background images

Permalink Browser Info Environment
Hello.

Is there any way that I can alter the way the background banner images work in Salix. Specifically, I would like them to display in their native aspect ratio and resize accordingly.

Is this possible?

Thanks.

Hello,

The banner images use backstretch.js which makes them cover the whole area or div. You can resize the div they are in using media queries to ensure the image is taller with wider screens, e.g. adding this CSS to your custom styles: 

@media (min-width: 768px) {
  div.ccm-page #salix-banner.salix-image-background {
    min-height: 400px!important;
  }
}
@media (min-width: 992px) {
  div.ccm-page #salix-banner.salix-image-background {
    min-height: 600px!important;
  }
}
@media (min-width: 1200px) {
  div.ccm-page #salix-banner.salix-image-background {
    min-height: 800px!important;
  }
}


You can adjust the heights in the CSS to get the images showing how you would like.

Thanks,

Jennifer

Wow. Good reply and great support.

I am assuming this will 'ideally' depend upon the ability to customise the Theme. Is there an alternative place I can put these bits of custom CSS that won't get overwritten by a theme update?

Hello

No problem, thanks! If you put it in Custom CSS in the design panel then it won't get overwritten with theme updates.

Of course we are aware that the design panel is not working right now in 8.5.4, so you would need to upload the files that we sent previously or update your theme when we make that fix.

Thanks, Jennifer
