  Hi,

  I’ve inserted a gallery on my homepage, of type slideshow. This slideshow has a black/dark background and I want it removed. Since I have the Custom CSS upgrade I went looking for CSS-code that might do this. I found following code:

  .slideshow-window {
  	border-color: transparent;
  	background-color: transparent;
  }

  When I add this in the CSS input box, the background dissappears and when I save I still see no background. If I refresh my homepage, the black/dark background is back, the CSS is still in the CSS-inputbox.

  Any idea how to remove the background from the slideshow-gallery?

  PS: also anyone an idea how to remove the navigate/pause buttons from the slideshow through CSS?

  Thanks in advance!

  Hi anaisstoelen,

  It looks like you might have removed the slideshow from your home page as all I see is a single image there now.

  So I can’t test this but sometimes I’ve found you need to put the !important flag to make sure it is picked up.

  So you could try this.

  .slideshow-window {
  	border-color: transparent !important;
  	background-color: transparent !important;
  }

  If that doesn’t work and you want to add the slideshow back, or to a test page, I would take a look again for you and see what I can figure out.
