Add background image to top level container

If that section is to be the Latest Post then you would need to add 2 x query loops.
The first one should have just 1 post with your featured image background set on the Container.

Then your other query loop will be as is with an Offset Parameter of 1 so it skips the first post.

Thanks David, i get the concept but it does not seem to be working.

I applied the background to this container

Does that look right to you?

I don't think you are supposed to add a query loop block into another query loop block.

I think i nearly have it, this seems to work

But does it look a little overkill?

One last issue is I can't seem to get an option to set inner container to restricted, so the content is to the left.

I can add padding to the text, but I think I am missing something obvious.

I decided just to go with a fixed container so I will close this.

Thanks

Just to cover, the issue you were having above is you had a Query Loop inside another query loop, and thats not supported today, in the future it will allow nested loops, for example loop for the Category terms and under each term show a list of posts.

For your need it would require 2 x Query Loops, both of which are separate so in the list view they would both be at the root level:

But if you're happy with your current solution then that is great :)
