 * Hey guys,
 * I’m looking for a way to make my back-most background remain stationary. It used
   to be stationary, iirc, but now it’s not. I was wondering if there”s some easy
   CSS/HTML or other code I can add to prevent my background from also scrolling
   down when I scroll down throughout my site.
 * Here’s my website: [http://www.thegrassrootsgarage.com/](http://www.thegrassrootsgarage.com/)
 * Thank you!

 * Hey there,
 * You can achieve what you are after by adding following custom CSS to your theme
   using [Advanced CSS Editor.
 *     ```
       body.custom-background {
           background-attachment: fixed;
           background-position: center;
           background-repeat: no-repeat;
       }
       ```
   
 * Hope it helps.

 * Hi [@thefloodshark](https://wordpress.org/support/users/thefloodshark/),
 * there is no need to add any custom CSS to make the background image stationary.
   You only need to select “Background Attachment > Fixed” in “Appearance > Customize
   > Background Image”.
 * Best regards

 * Hi Tomas,
 * I actually didn’t download the theme and check this, as you might have guessed.
   [@thefloodshark](https://wordpress.org/support/users/thefloodshark/), please 
   follow Tomas’s solution as it is much more simple. Thanks for the help, Tomas!
