 * I am trying to use a different background image for the mobile version of my 
   website ([designedbygeeks.com](http://designedbygeeks.com)). I have set the background
   image in my style sheet but the theme is overwriting it. Please advise.

 * I believe that accomplishing this would require quite a bit of modification to
   some of the theme’s core files. I tried looking for more information on how to
   accomplish this, but came up empty handed. The developer will have a definitive
   answer, but I think this would be something you accomplish with a child theme
   or perhaps javascript modifications.

 * Hey kjcc,
 * Awesome site!
 * You would need to use media queries for this.
    Search on Google CSS Background
   Image Media Queires
 * Here’s an example below:
 * ‘
    [@media](https://wordpress.org/support/users/media/) only screen and (max-
   width: 767px) { .contentclass, .nav-tabs>.active>a, .nav-tabs>.active>a:hover,.
   nav-tabs>.active>a:focus, .footerclass, .headerclass { background-image: ; } }‘
 * I’ve listed/condensed all classes that use the same background image, above.
   
   If you would like you could do it the same way as your current style sheet, where
   it’s split in to sections.
 * Have a read on custom media queries, and let me know if you require any further
   help!:)

 * I had been trying body instead of the list of classes you provided bobbyduff.
   That worked. Thanks!
