 * Hello.
   Greetings to the community, I’ve been struggling for a few days now trying
   to modify the opacity of the header background and I can’t do it, I just want
   to make the header back have an alpha of 50%, I’ve tried with some direct CSS
   codes but I’ve only been able to modify it when the header enters mobile mode,
   I don’t want that alpha to apply to the menu elements or logo, any recommendations?
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fheader-background-opacity-help%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
