Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about cbParallax

You can access the main settings under Settings > cbParallax in your WordPress admin. If you enable the "Individual Background Images" option, a meta box will appear on your post/page edit screens.

Most likely your theme doesn't support the WordPress custom-background theme feature. Check with your theme author to see if they can add support. The theme needs to call add_theme_support('custom-background'). My theme supports custom-background but it still doesn't work! Make sure no container element (like a full-width wrapper) is covering the body element where the background is displayed. You may need to add some CSS transparency to your content container.

If you're a theme developer, add this to your theme's functions.php: add_theme_support( 'custom-background' );

For the best parallax effect, use images at least 1920px wide and 1200px tall. This ensures smooth scrolling on fullHD displays with room for the parallax movement.

Yes! There's an option in the settings to disable the parallax effect on mobile devices, which can help with performance.
