    Hi all,

    I am trying to set up the beautiful One-Pager Genesis Child Theme from Sidhar Katakam. Work in progress. Theme is installed and I am following the set-up guide. However, I am already 2 hours searching how to change the background images on the various pages. Sridhar says in his setup-guide:

    "In wp-content/one-pager/images directory replace the following with your own:

    welcome-background.jpg
    portfolio-background.jpg
    about-background.jpg
    contact-background.jpg"

    However: I can't find wp-content/one-pager/images at all. Can anybody help? Names should be the same as above but in my media-library where I uploaded images, I can't change that either. If I just select an image I can see it places it behind Sridhars image.

    Hope somebody can help me out as I feel quite stupid 🙂

    You should log into your host C-panel and you can find the files in your Child Theme.
    Use the C-panel to upload your new image into the directory.

    It's in your wp-content/themes/one-pager-genesis-master/
    right under the file for css
    is the file for images
    inside it you find all your images
    /welcome-background.jpg
    /portfolio-background.jpg
    /about-background.jpg
    /contact-background.jpg

    Just upload new files...of the correct size.
    rename your file to match!

    * if you were looking to do it thru the media library, you can't.

    Thanks Andykev for your reply!

    "Host C-panel" I think you mean with that the Control-panel of the hosting party of my website? I asked the question to the support department as I see nowhere any directory files or coding.

    Thanks again for answering. I hope they can point me out where to find it and from there I will go on with your tips.

    Regards,

    René
