Background image not showing in Section

Hi!
I am creating a page using sections. I have followed your video overview for sections, but I get a different result.
I want to create a section with a background image (the third section in the example video).
I do the same steps as you do in the video (except I did not have my image in the library and uploaded it on the fly when customizing the section), but the image does not show up when I publish the page.
I have tried to also activate the "Background"-add on (even though it is not activated in the video) just in case something might have changed. It had no effect.
I use WordPress 4.9.6.
I do not have any caching plugins.
I do not use any other page builder plugin.
I have searched the forum for a solution, not finding it.
I'm on a Mac (10.11.6) using Google Chrome (66.0.3359.181)
Any ideas?

PS Great new look on your website!
Hi Cecilia,
can you share a link to the site so we can have a look please.
I've opened the site and you'll find the link in my first msg to you. Let me know when you've taken a look so I can close it again (as it's not finished yet I don't want it to be up and running quite yet).
Hi there,
The background image is pointing to a sub-domain on your website.
It's not working because that URL is using https, but that sub-domain isn't configured to use SSL.
If you add SSL to that sub-domain, it should work :)
Ah, but of course!
Thank you!
Just a short note to confirm it worked.
I don't know why my webb host does that; adds a setting that puts media in a sub-domain? I recently got SSL so I didn't come to think of it. But it was easy to fix. I removed the subdomain and now store media in the same domain as everything else.
Thanks again!

Glad I could help :)
