I am using the Venetian theme. In Customization, I successfully put a background image into the header. Looks great on the home page.
I added a below-the-header widget with text (using the exact steps of the tutorial). Not at all difficult.
Works beautifully on the home page.
So why is it that this same widget area has a solid blue background covering up most of the background image on EVERY OTHER PAGE BUT NOT THE HOME PAGE? This looks like a programming error to me. Is there a fix?
