  Hello!

  Problem;
  I want to either have transparent background in the slideshow block – OR –
  change color to a darker.
  Can not find anything in “settings” – or at the wp.com help page for images.

  I have tried out snippets I’ve found here – not working so far.
  Answers given were perhaps before “block time”.
  Suggestions very welcome!

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  My latest try was:

  .special-media-slideshow-block {
  background-image: linear-gradient(to bottom right, #d8dcc0,#6d705a);
  }

  To no avail……….

  Ok – so after trying out a dozen ways I got to one snippet that worked;

  .wp-block-jetpack-slideshow .wp-block-jetpack-slideshow_slide {
  background-color:#6d705a
  !important;
  }
