    Hi All,

    Using WP 3.8, Genesis 2.0.1, Genesis Sample Theme 2.0.1

    Does anyone know how to override the body Custom Background Class? I am using a Custom Background, but I would like the background to change on each web page. I have researched this, and found I can do it with Custom Body Class on a page, and place the class in style.css with a background-image element. The only problem is Body Custom Background class is overriding it in CSS?

    Any Ideas?

    Thank you,

    I figured, since Custom Background is inline, I had to remove all custom backgrounds, and create a custom class for each page, and than change the background images.
