Content Background Image for Individual Pages

I have a client that would like to have a background image in the content area on just one page. I have "Backgrounds" installed and when I go to Appearance > Customize > Background Images > Content, I can select the image needed; however, it replicates on every page.

Is there a way around this to where I can still change the colors and possible images on the home page vs. a contact page, for instance?

Thank you in advance, absolutely love premium.

Hi Joe,

One way is to use Tom's fantastic plugin Simple CSS:

https://wordpress.org/plugins/simple-css/

In addition to adding a CSS area in the Customizer as well as a standalone CSS editor area (Appearance > Simple CSS) it also adds a CSS meta box for each page/post where you could add the following to provide a background image for the content area for just that page:

.entry-content {
    background: #ff3300 url("URL_TO_THE IMAGE");
}

Note that the color is the fallback color should the image become unavailable; set to whatever you want/need :)

Cheers!
Lyle

Worked like a charm!

Thanks,
Joe
