Hello all! Long time follower, first time poster.

I’m a graphic designer, so I’m new to this coding nonsense.

The question that I have is in regards to a client’s website that I’ve built. It’s built from a single-page template called BusinessCard by Elegant themes.

The site is potentimli.com. I need the background image to link to the home page (refresh it, essentially, because it’s a single page site).

The CSS that I’m looking at is below. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

[CSS moderated as per the Forum Rules. Please just post a link to your site.]

The image that I want to link is obviously “images/pink/home_final_square.jpg”

Thanks in advance!

As this is a commercial theme whose template files are not freely available, we cannot help. You need to seek support from the theme’s vendors.

-___- Well, crap. My subscription to Elegant Themes has been expired/cancelled for quite some time. I’d hate to join again just to get this help.

Anything I can do to lead to a solution through all of you knowledgeable people?

Haha. Well played, alchymyth.

I found this link that did exactly what I want to do, but being new to back-end, I have no idea how/where to do what he says:

What you can do is simply use anchor tag <a> within your <div> which holds the background image and apply the same css that you used for the div to anchor tag and comment the css on div.

See if this helps.
