Anyway, Glad that this is resolved. :)</p> <p>Cheers,<br /> Ismael </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/backgorund-image-for-flagship#post-78023 Mon, 01 Oct 2012 00:00:10 +0000 ngonzalez 78023@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Noo. that put's it on the side bar. But forget it. I decided to give up using SVG images (a lot of browsers don't know how to interpret them well). I just placed a PNG image at the top as the background and that works for me</p> <p>Thanks for your efforts anyway</p> <p>This theme is the bomb!... </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/backgorund-image-for-flagship#post-77375 Wed, 26 Sep 2012 03:54:27 +0000 Ismael 77375@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hi ngonzalez,</p> <p>Try to use this code instead:<br /> <pre><code>.sidebar { background: url(&#39;http://www.opsvenue.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/shutterstock_Right.svg&#39;) left top; }</code></pre> <p>Regards,<br /> Ismael </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/backgorund-image-for-flagship#post-77371 Wed, 26 Sep 2012 03:32:15 +0000 ngonzalez 77371@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>I'm sorry but I had not tried yet when I responded. It doesn't work for me. This is what I input under Theme Options, Styling Quick CSS. I entered the code and nothing happens. Also for some reason the same image comes' out considerably smaller on the page that has the contact form. No Idea why...this is my site <a href="http://www.opsvenue.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.opsvenue.com</a> (pls use Chrome or Safari, for some reason the SVG image doesn't render properlly with IE9 or firefox)</p> <p>input.sidebar {<br /> background-image: urlhttp://www.opsvenue.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/shutterstock_Right.svg;<br /> -o-background-size: 100% 100%;<br /> -webkit-background-size: 100% 100%;<br /> } </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/backgorund-image-for-flagship#post-77349 Wed, 26 Sep 2012 01:42:23 +0000 Ismael 77349@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hi ngonzalez,</p> <p>Glad that we could help. :)</p> <p>Cheers,<br /> Ismael </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/backgorund-image-for-flagship#post-77297 Tue, 25 Sep 2012 17:36:36 +0000 ngonzalez 77297@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>great</p> <p>Thanks </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/backgorund-image-for-flagship#post-77195 Tue, 25 Sep 2012 05:32:51 +0000 Ismael 77195@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hi ngonzalez,</p> <p>Try adding this code snippet in Quick CSS or custom.css:<br /> <pre><code>.sidebar { background-image: url(test.svg); -o-background-size: 100% 100%; -webkit-background-size: 100% 100%; }</code></pre> <p>Just replace test.svg with the right url of the svg image. Hope this helps. :)</p> <p>Regards,<br /> Ismael </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/backgorund-image-for-flagship#post-77169 Mon, 24 Sep 2012 20:47:43 +0000 ngonzalez 77169@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>OK. that worked but the .eps doesn't play well with most browsers anyway. So i'll stick with the svg format. Can you give directions to have the image appear in the side bars?</p> <p>Thanks for your assistance </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/backgorund-image-for-flagship#post-76869 Sat, 22 Sep 2012 06:05:29 +0000 Ismael 76869@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hi,</p> <p>Looks like you need to add this on the end of functions.php</p> <pre><code>// Added to extend allowed files types in Media upload add_filter(&#39;upload_mimes&#39;, &#39;custom_upload_mimes&#39;); function custom_upload_mimes ( $existing_mimes=array() ) { // Add *.EPS files to Media upload $existing_mimes[&#39;eps&#39;] = &#39;application/postscript&#39;; // Add *.AI files to Media upload $existing_mimes[&#39;ai&#39;] = &#39;application/postscript&#39;; return $existing_mimes; }</code></pre> <p>Please try and see if it works.</p> <p>Regards,<br /> Ismael </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/backgorund-image-for-flagship#post-76841 Fri, 21 Sep 2012 21:01:09 +0000 ngonzalez 76841@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Me again. Unfortunately when I convert the .eps file to .svg it looses lots of quality. So I really would like to use my .eps image. I found a piece of code that is supposed to remove the security restriction from WordPress and allow .eps uploads but I have to edit the fuction-flagship file. When I go there there I see a big note asking users not to modify that file.</p> <p>Is it possible to enable the support of .eps file upload somehow?</p> <p>This is the site that I found:</p> <p><a href="http://itswordpress.com/featured/add-additional-file-types-to-wordpress-media-library/" rel="nofollow">http://itswordpress.com/featured/add-additional-file-types-to-wordpress-media-library/</a></p> <p>Thank you </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/backgorund-image-for-flagship#post-76827 Fri, 21 Sep 2012 18:56:50 +0000 ngonzalez 76827@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>I'm using a .svg file type. The plugging did the trick (WordPress doesn't support .svg by default). The image uploads just fine now. Please let me know how do I make the image cover the side bars as well. </p> <p>I appreciate your help</p> <p>Thanks </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/backgorund-image-for-flagship#post-76658 Thu, 20 Sep 2012 10:48:02 +0000 Ismael 76658@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hi ngonzalez,</p> <p>What is the file extension of the image you want to upload? Try using that plugin, that might work. Also, this forum is using bbpress. :)</p> <p>Regards,<br /> Ismael </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/backgorund-image-for-flagship#post-76585 Wed, 19 Sep 2012 16:25:17 +0000 ngonzalez 76585@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>It just sais that it failed to upload (apparently is a known weakeness of wordpress). I found a pluging called scalable-vector-graphics-svg that is supposed to allow the use of vector images in wordpress but haven't had a chance to try it yet..</p> <p>In another note..Do you mind telling me what kind of support forum you use in your site. I'm trying to choose one for mine and this one looks very good.</p> <p>Thank you </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/backgorund-image-for-flagship#post-76523 Wed, 19 Sep 2012 03:51:04 +0000 Ismael 76523@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hi ngonzalez,</p> <p>We can make that background image appear on your header and sidebar. However, I think the problem is the uploading failed, can you tell us what error shows up when the image failed to upload?</p> <p>Regards,<br /> Ismael </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/backgorund-image-for-flagship#post-76506 Wed, 19 Sep 2012 02:10:05 +0000 ngonzalez 76506@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hello again,</p> <p>Is there a way of using a vector image as the header background? the file is a .ai (adobe illustrator). When I try to upload it the template give's me an error stating that the upload failed</p> <p>Thanks again </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/backgorund-image-for-flagship#post-76469 Tue, 18 Sep 2012 18:03:17 +0000 ngonzalez 76469@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hi,</p> <p>I purchased a background image which is vector illustration (.eps) that support any kind of re-shaping. Right now I have it as the header background of my site and it works just fine. I would like to use this to be the background of my header, side bars and footer or at least header and side bars. Is that supported by the flagship theme? </p> <p>Please advise</p> <p>Thank you </p>
