    Hello,

    trying to follow the tutorial on the centric pro theme.. in the document it is said you should see a custom background menu when pressed on (appearance > custom background).. but instead it goes to the customize menu.

    Could you tell me why this is?

    Thank you

    Yes, it should display the Customizer => Background Image page.

    There you should be able to select your background image from the media library or upload a new background.

    Yes thank you, I have seen that. But the tutorial said:

    The Centric Pro theme demo can be configured to display an image behind the first, third, and sixth home page widget areas.

    Navigate to Appearance > Background in your WordPress admin panel.
    Use the “Browse” button to select the background image you wish to use from your computer.
    Once the image has been selected click the “Upload” button to load the image for use on your site.
    Alternatively you can use the “Choose Image” button to select the background image you have loaded to your site previously.
    The Display Options settings for Position, Repeat, and Attachment can be set depending on the best settings for the image you have chosen.
    To select a Background Color to show around, or instead of a background image in click “Select Color” and choose a color or enter a hexadecimal color code.
    Click the “Save Changes” button to preserve your changes.

    This is not correct if it goes to customize instead where you only can set one background image and the other options are not available. So the tutorial is confusing and it takes time to figure it out, it is not up-to-date the tutorial if it changed.

    Yes, it's not working for me either. I didn't understand the problem.

    The settings have been moved to the customizer now. You can add the background image that way.

    Yes thank you, but not all settings are there as seen on the screenshot in the tutorial. So some alterations can not be made in the same way the tutorial said you can.

    Thanks for the feedback. The setup guide may need updating if thats the case.
