Opaque header image

Hello team,
I’m stuck again with the ListingHive theme. You helped me really well last time, so I’m coming back to you and thank you in advance.
That said, when I put a header image on the home page, there’s a kind of gray that makes my image opaque and I can’t remove it.
Can you help me?
Thanks again.


Hello la team,
je suis à nouveau bloqué concernant le thème ListingHive. La dernière fois vous m’avez super bien aidé, c’est pour cette raison que je reviens vous voir et vous remercie par avance.
Ceci dit, lorsque je mets une image d’en-tête sur la page d’accueil il y a une sorte de gris qui m’opacifie mon image et que je ne peux pas supprimer.
Pouvez-vous me donner la solution.
Encore mille mercis.

Hello mon cricri,

Please make sure you write in English, if you want to get some support.
You should also provide a link to your website if you want some help.

Cheers !

Oops sorry.
thank you for your response.
For the link, I’m local.
I can put a screenshot, if that’s ok, or I can quickly host it if that’s easier for you.
THANKS.

Many thanks again.

Let me post a screenshot.
THANKS.

Can’t do anything without a link to the LIVE website, as it is mostly related to CSS.

Ok thank you,
I find a host, and I come back with the link.
Thanks again.

Hello mon @Cricri !

Since your theme is listing hive and is almost untouched (as far as I can see), I went on the demo site and tried to understand your problem.

This might do the trick :

.header-hero--cover:after {
    background-color: #fff;
}

Cheers !

Hello, thank you very much for your help, you are the best.
However Iam attaching below a link as well as the password and username to access the site.
I would also like to know if it is possible to limit the characters when adding ads in the title and description.
Thanks again.

Hello Cricri :

Try this :

/*CSS to add */
.header-hero {
    background-image: none!important;
    background-color: #fff;
}

My “free” time is limited. I need to put food on the table too.

I think you should tell Lucas to hire a proper developer. :wink:

Ok,
thank you very much for everything.
Lucas doesn’t exist, it’s a password.
Have a nice evening.

Hi,

Regarding the header image, you can try this CSS snippet:

.header-hero::before{
	content: none;
}

As for the title length, please use check this PHP sample snippet: Change maximum length of title and description for listings #hivepress #listings · GitHub. You can add snippets using this doc: How to add custom code snippets - HivePress Help Center

​I hope this is helpful to you

Hello Andrii,
thank you for your time.
concerning the header image, I tried the code, unfortunately the opacity does not disappear.
concerning the character limitation, I will check and let you know.
Thank you very much.

Hello,
Please excuse me, I come back to you again for a little help.
On Chrome, I inspected the page, I saw this source code, where there is the line that I would like to modify (circled in light red).
The problem is that I can’t find the source code in the theme.
I just ask you if you can help me find it.
Thank you.

Hello mon cricri,

If you use the code snippet provided above by @andrii, it should work (at least it does for me).

Hello and thank you for your answer.
My problem is that I don’t know where to put the code.
In “personalization” there is only “CSS Style”.
I am a real beginner.
Thank you.

Once again, even if you are a beginner, you should take time to read what andrii sent you :

This is PHP here, not CSS

Ok thanks,
I saw Anreii’s message and thanked him.
However, besides being a beginner, I’m a bit stupid, and I didn’t understand where to modify and how the code.
But don’t worry, I’ll get there because I want to.
Thanks again.
Have a nice day.

Ok, great,
thank you all, with perseverance I succeeded concerning the limitation of characters. I just have to find how to remove the dark that is applied to my header image.
Thank.

OK,
I finally found the header image.
I took the code given by Andreii (thanks a lot Andreii), I just changed “before to after” and everything works.
A big thank you to all for your time.
You are the best.
Persistence always pays.
Thanks again.
