    I'm using the featured widget text for Agentpress Pro with a slideshow behind it. I'd like to make the white background more transparent. It is now white and blocks a lot of my image.

    Anyone know how to do this?

    In your style.css, search for the follow:

    .home-featured .widget {
    background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.9);

    You can likely just do a search for "0.9" to find it as well, either or. That 0.9 is the transparency, the 0.0 is completely transparent, 1.0 is zero transparency. Change that to a different value (such as 0.4), and decide if you need to be more or less transparent.

    It worked!

    In /* Home Page
    --------------------------------------------- */

    I changed it to:

    }

    .home-featured .widget {
    background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.3);
    padding: 40px;
    margin: 0 auto;
    max-width: 80%;
    }

    But still looking the same.

    I'm confused, you said "it worked!" but at the bottom of the post, "but still looking the same", did you edit your post to say it worked, or is it still not working for you?

    The page shows 0.3 for me now, and is far more transparent. If it's still not working, clear your cache or in Chrome ctrl + F5 on the page.

    sorry, it DID work, and I didn't catch that last line to edit.

    Many thanks 🙂
