In Spree 3.1 Standard Themes (out of the box)
I tried to change background image.But not work. Perhaps the path is wrong. Help need.
Here what I did.
Upload image to be /app/assets/images/NewBackGroundImage.png
Add css in vendors/assets/stylesheets/spree/frontend/custom.css
CSS:
.spree-header{
background-image: url("/assets/images/NewBackGroundImage.png");
background-size: cover;
margin-bottom: 10px;
}
Here my inspect of the current page
This part is my attached screen shots for my comment of the answer below.
At the inspect screen it clearly display error 404 (Not Found)
Tried change to use asset-url then
SCSS:
Then Change my custom.css to custom.scss
And this is the inspect shot NOW IT WORK
As I can see, your page doesn't use your styles at all. Are you sure the div tag has the class "spree-header". Because in your browser it only has id "spree-header" and nothing about the respective class. Try to replace it from .spree-header to #spree-header. If there might be confrontation between styles, then you can always try the usage of !important tag: url(...) !important;
If the folder "vendors" is in the "app" folder, then you can use the relative path url("../../../../../assets/images/NewBackGroundImage.png") as well

I'm creating a Spree store, and trying to make a button use an image instead of the default button that is included with the extension (and bootstrap). I can target the proper button in CSS, and deactivate the background color, border, etc. The background url doesn't work for the image (path: "app/assets/images/heart-icon.png"), but it works fine for any external image url.
I assume my problem lies within the asset pipeline, but I can't figure out the proper path to set as the url.
From my .css file:
form.new_wished_product button.btn.btn-info {
background: url(assets/heart-icon.png);
background-color: transparent;
background-position: center center;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
color: transparent;
border: none;
}
The button doesn't need to change when hovered or clicked -- it's just a simple image.
Thanks!
EDIT:
I saw the related question but thought mine was different because I had tried those solutions. I was trying to do this with plain CSS and changing the file extension to .css.scss worked for me.
Have you tried the image-url() helper instead of url()?
image-url('heart-icon.png');
This will find the asset within your site's file structure.
When using the asset pipeline, paths to assets must be re-written and sass-rails provides -url and -path helpers (hyphenated in Sass, underscored in Ruby) for the following asset classes: image, font, video, audio, JavaScript and stylesheet.
#main {
background: url("images/bg_grey.png");
}
I have this code into my main.css but GWT can't find the image (it is into the default images folder of my GWT-project).
With JAVA there are lots methods like GWT.getModuleBaseURL(), but, into the CSS, how can i recover the correct path for my image?
It's relative to the CSS location.
For example, if the CSS is in /css/myStyle.css, the path for the image would be ../images/bg_grey.png
I am having trouble displaying an background image in my ASP.NET MVC 2 application. Currently, In ~/Views/Shared/Site.master, I set my link to the style sheet to:
<link href="<%:#Url.Content("~/Content/Site.css") %>" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
The image I plan to display is in my ~/Content/Images/Designs.png
Here is what I have tried
body
{
background-image: url(~/Content/Images/designs.png);
background-repeat: repeat;
font-size: .75em;
font-family: Verdana, Helvetica, Sans-Serif;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
color: #696969;
}
Other Tries Included:
background-image: url(./Content/Images/designs.png);
background-image: url(Content/Images/designs.png);
background-image: url(Images/designs.png);
none of the above tries worked. What can I do?
The url inside a CSS file is relative to the location of the CSS file.
So if we suppose that you have ~/content/foo.css and you want to include ~/images/foo.png here's how to reference it inside foo.css:
background-image: url(../images/foo.png);
Don't use any ~ inside a CSS file. It has no meaning.
So in your case if the CSS file is ~/Content/Site.css and you want to reference ~/Content/Images/Designs.png the correct syntax is:
background-image: url(images/designs.png);
If this doesn't work for you there might be different causes:
The image doesn't exist at that location
You didn't specify width and height to the containing element so you don't see the image
What I would recommend you is to use FireBug and inspect the corresopnding DOM element to see exactly what styles and images are applied to it.
This is what I had to do:
background-image: url('#Url.Content("~/images/foo.png")')
If you use bundles and have the directory structure like :
-Content
--lightbox
---css
----lightbox.css
---imgages
----close.png
then you can make a separate bundle for content in subdirectories by defining the bundle in that subdirectory:
bundles.Add(new StyleBundle("~/Content/lightbox/css/bundle")
.Include("~/Content/lightbox/css/lightbox.css"));
background-image: url(../images/close.png);
In my case I had to back out to the root and include a path to the Content directory.
So even if my directory structure looked like:
-Content
--css
---site.css
--img
---someImg.png
I couldn't do
background-image: url(../img/someImg.png)
I had to do:
background-image: url(../../Content/img/someImg.png)
This worked locally in debug mode (no minification) and deployed to AWS (with minification) correctly.
Also, don't forget if you're using Bundle minification and you use #import in your CSS to still include the asset in the bundle. For example:
main.css
#import url(../../Content/css/some.css)
Be sure to include some.css in your bundle:
bundles.Add(new StyleBundle("~/Content/global").Include(
"~/Content/css/some.css",
"~/Content/css/main.css"));
No need to do this if you're using LESS or SASS bundlers as the handler knows how to find the files and include them (that's the point!); however, if you're doing it as a straight CSS import, the bundler won't know to include it when it minifies.
Hope this helps someone!
It could be a caching issue in the browser; that is, the browser may cache an older version if the css file. Clear the cache and try again.
use below code
.background
{
background-image: url("../Images/backimage.jpg");
background-position: inherit;
}
Keep it simple stupid.
At all times, try to stick to relative paths with css url attribute.
/* Assuming your Site.css is in the folder where "Images" folder is located */
/* Your Css Image url */
background-image: url("Images/YourImageUrl");
The problem with wrong urls is that css can't locate that image as it doesn't understand the convention used on that url, hence the image is not displayed. So to keep it simple use the reigning relative path approach, and you'll never have problems.
For anyone experiencing a similar problem with a razor page.
You can use your regular CSS form, you just need to play with your folder levels.
This avoids having to do CSS inline.
Using normal HTML/CSS
body{background-image: url("images/sparks.jpg");}
My folder structure for razor
body{background-image: url("../../images/sparks.jpg");}
This Works For Me
<div style="background-image:url('/images/home.jpg')">
AS i have images folder direct in my project so
i used in url
/images/image.jpg
like
<div style="background-image:url('/images/image.jpg')">
I would recommend to just drag and drop the image. Visual Studio will generate the code automatically for you,
body
{
background-image: url('../../Content/Images/dark123.jpg');
}
This URL code is auto-generated by Visual Studio you don't need to write the code manually.
Hope this will fix your issue.
Cheers!
Had the same problem. Solved by adding double quotes in the URL specification:
No:
background-image: url(../images/ic_Chevron_bottom.svg);
Yes:
background-image: url("../images/ic_Chevron_bottom.svg");
can some on help me on how i can reference images i have all my images stored in an image folder which is located in the root folder (..\images) in my css class i have the the following
#image
{ background-position: left;
background-repeat: no-repeat;}
.background
{
background-image: url(..\images\image.gif);
}
and in my .cs file i have
image.Attributes.Add("class", "background");
image is a div tag which is in my aspx code !!
when i run this code i image doesnt show, any ideas what i might be doing wrong
You should turn those slashes in your paths around from \ to /
Also, I usually put an url keyword before the parenthesis in CSS, but I am not sure if this is required:
background-image: url(../images/image.gif);
UPDATE: If the image field in your C# code is some kind of webcontrol, say an Image control, you should use the setts on its CssClass property rather than explicitly adding a class attribute. What you are doing now might yield two class attributes in the markup, which might not get handled well. You can do a quick "view source" on your page to test if this is the problem.
If this does not help, see Nick Cravers answers. The path from your CSS to the image is wrong, or the image file is not where you believe it is.
URL references in a CSS file must be relative to the CSS file.
Make sure that compared to the CSS file the image is in ..\images, if not, adjust it to be in relation to the CSS.
Also your background declaration should be like this:
background-image: url(..\images\image.gif);
Example:
CSS = \CSS\styles.css
IMG = \Images\image.gif
Style = url(../Images/image.gif);
CSS = \styles.css
IMG = \Images\image.gif
Style = url(Images/image.gif);
The style definition:
background-image: url(../images/image.gif);
is saying "go up one directory and into the images folder". Try:
background-image: url(/images/image.gif);
This assumes that the images directory is in the root of your website.
I can't figure out why the image is not resolving inside the div id="header_container"
everything looks ok, the image is on the server,,, what's the issue here?

any ideas?
thanks
When you make a CSS url() directive a relative path, it is relative to the CSS file, not the page the CSS is on. In your case, the header_container directive is:
background-image: url(images/logo.jpg);
Because your CSS file is in /mrw/styles/styles.css, the path that the image is being looked for at is /mrw/styles/images/logo.jpg. You need to adjust your CSS directive accordingly. One of the following should work:
background-image: url(/mrw/images/logo.jpg);
or
background-image: url(../images/logo.jpg);
Background image URL's in a CSS file are relative to the URL of the CSS file itself, not to the URL of the parent HTML page which included the CSS file.
So, to fix your particular problem, change images/logo.jpg to ../images/logo.jpg, otherwise it is trying to lookup the image in styles/images/logo.jpg
