Transparent image background is getting filled in

    I’ll say right away that I can’t provide a link to the page, because it’s behind a construction page.

    I’m using WPBakery. The theme for my site is Avada, although I don’t use the Avada editors.

    The row in question has a .jpg background. It’s working fine.

    There are two columns in the row. The image in question is in the left column. Neither the column nor the single image box has any background color or image.

    The image is a .png file with a transparent background. The row .jpg should show behind the image. However, on the page, the image background is a white square.

    What could be causing this?

    Hi,

    Got a screen capture you can share with everyone? I’ll admit, it’s hard to follow without a visual display and access to code or screen capture of the code.

    But, from what I gather, the left column is/is not showing your png? But, the background of the left column is an opaque/solid white. Did I get that right?

    If so, try to make sure your left column’s background colour is 100% transparent. E.g. rgba(255,255,255,0). More on RGBa opacity/transparency here https://www.w3schools.com/csSref/func_rgba.asp

    Good luck!

    P.s. Recommend in the future, if you can’t provide access to the exact page with the issue, please try to create a minimal reproducible example somewhere else. Miminum provide screen captures with your description of the issue.

    The problem is solved. It was some kind of weird glitch with WordPress (or maybe my browser?) remembering the previous version of the file (which I had “permanently deleted.”) I “permanently deleted” the new file with the transparent background and renamed it. Now it’s working.

    If I have more problems I’ll upload screenshots.
