Buildr - how to add different image backgrounds for different pages

zentoolsIf you use Zentools please post a review at the Joomla! Extensions Directory.

Hey Paul and co.

I have a project where my client wants different background images for different pages, and I thought I could use Buildr and set up different themes inside the template manager (I can only pick different background colors). So the only way I can see I can add background images is by custom css and then I am not sure how I can create different background css for different themes. Is there a way? If you can recommend a better template to use for this that would be helpful too.

Thanks. Happy Wednesday to everyone.
Nya

Hi Nya,

Have you tried using zentools2 modules published to the background position?

Using slideshow backstretch and try a super long slide duration with folder as image source

Page length might be a problem if the client wants all of the image to display

Hi Paul,

Backstretch didn't work as well as regular slideshow. I think I can make this work! And it is much easier than doing different themes. Thanks.

Another quick question, couldn't find anything about it in the forum. Is there a Menu Class Suffix style that makes the footer menu horizontal (right now it is vertical)? I tried _horizontal, but perhaps it changed?

As always, thanks for all of your great help.
Love
Nya

You need to add classes to menu class suffix field
