    I am in the process of converting the Weaver ii-pro website to the Xtreme-pro theme.

    Reinstalling the full screen BG slider Supersized created a problem as it proves to be loaded, but cannot be “seen”.
    It looks as if the Appearances -> background -> color is blocking the sight. 
    Who knows the div so that this back-ground color can be changed to Transparent using CSS?
    Sorry for my not too technical worthing, but you might understand what I am talking about.
    Inserting an Appearances -> background -> image had the requested result: override of background color, image can be seen.
    So the second option might be to insert the slider in that same area / wrapper?
    But again, who can help to find that area?
    Thanks for helping to solve this problem.

    You need to elaborate on what you have done to insert your full page slider AND provide a link to your site

    There is no option “Appearances -> background -> color” in Weaver Xtreme. It is difficult to understand what you mean.

    But – for any of the BG color options, leaving the color blank should be the same as specifying “inherit”. You can also explicitly put transparent as the color.

    Website: Weaver Xtreme website, a clone from the Weaver-ii-pro 

    I am talking about the WP Appearances ->Background -> Color, which “blocks” the background, but cannot be set to transparent.
    This effects the Weaver Theme:
    If I insert an image in WP Appearances -> Background -> Image, the image shows.
    If i insert the same image in Weaver Xtreme 1.2.4 Options – Plus 1.2.2. -> Main Options -> Wrapping Area’s -> Back Ground Image Xtreme Plus -> Full Screen BG Image, the image doesnot show and seems to be blocked by the same background color.
    Although the site is under construction, I have made it accessible for review now.

    You have a rule

    body{background:#111;height:100%}

    causing this.

    I am not sure where it comes from. Do check all CSS+ boxes and the custom CSS Rule box

    If you cant find the rule and remove it, you should be able to override it with the rule below in Main Options > Custom > Custom CSS rule box

    body {background-color:transparent !important;}

    Thanks Scrambler,

    The CSS rule did it!
    Still trying to find the rule which caused the problem and will let you know.
    The BG slider Supersized slider doesnot work yet, but this was a step foreward!

    The WP Appearances Background color is “helpfully” provided  by WP itself, and does override other BG colors. It is not a theme option. Leaving that option blank should remove it. There are equivalent options in Weaver to be more selective about applying BG colors.
