nav background image?

Post by tbuzz88 »

Hi
I'm trying to adjust the Bulletmenu Vert 1 col template to my current layout, it's all going well apart from the back groung image to the navigation menu. The original CSS used background-image: url('../images/menubackground.jpg'); in the 1st block of #menu code. Everything else has come out ok font, padding, position etc but I can't get the image to display. The original site was designed by a friend and I know very little about html/css so any help would be greatly appreciated
Thanks

Do you have a link or is it installed on your comp.?

Most of the images go in the uploads/images folder, you need to find the img. and point the url to it, url('../images/menubackground.jpg');, this is a typical path for non CMSMS templates the image is in the root of this in a folder called images so just upload the images to your uploads/images folder and change the path to url(uploads/images/menubackground.jpg);

I've put the img in the uploads/images folder and changed the path but it still isn't showing. I'm probably being dense and putting it in the wrong place, where should I put it in the nav-vertical stylesheet?
Thanks

You should be able to just change the path in the original CSS.
