 * Hello,
    I would like to know if it’s possible to disable carousel on the front
   page. I would like to use full size static background image instead. Please help.

 * Hi,
 * You can disable the header slider from: Customize > Header area > header type
   > front page header type > then choose “Image”

 * My mistake not to make this clear. I want my front page to have a full page background
   without sliders. When I changed the header type to “image” and its height, all
   the pages have the same header. I don’t want the sub pages to have the full size
   background.

 * so basically, I want to keep the sub pages to have header type image as is, but
   the front page have the full page static background image.
 * Thanks.

 * I see, then you can try these CSS code below:
 *     ```
       body.home .header-image{
         height: 100vh;
       }
       ```
   
 * And if you want to adjust the overlay color, use this:
 *     ```
       body.home .header-image .overlay {
           opacity: 0.3;
       }
       ```
