Hello, I used this code to adjust the color, however the site does not interpret the alpha channel settings.

#frontpage {
background-color: rgba(255, 206, 82, .5);
}

also tried the body #main which did not even change the color.

Thanks

The browser does the interpreting. If the rule doesn’t work you’re either applying it to the incorrect element, or the custom style is not specific enough and gets overwritten by existing styling.

Try
body #frontpage { ...

Note that the #frontpage element is located on top of a different layer which already has a white (configurable) background, so any semi-transparent color you’re applying will be applied to that background, it will not make the content background semi-transparent all the way down to the site background.

I know I have selected the correct element because the color changes when I change the color numbers.

The reason the background image was not showing through is I had the same color set for the background of the content. I removed the callout numbers and the alpha channel is now adjustable. Thank you.

here is the css code:

#pp-afterslider {
background-color: rgba(255, 206, 82, 0.8);
margin-top: -20px;
margin-right: 0px;
margin-left: 0px;
padding-left: 3%;
padding-right: 3%;
padding-top: 2%;
}
