 * I had a wood background on my pages and went to change it in Editor.
 * Here’s a screen shot of what I’ve got now:
    background:#http://www.almajwilson.
   com/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/green.jpg; } #main{ background:none; }
 * Here’s what happened. I deleted the image code and replaced it with a color hex
   code. The wood background remained even after I deleted the code for it. Then
   I tried to download another image. That’s the code that’s currently there, what
   I copy/pasted. I still had the wood background. Then the following day, the wood
   background is gone and the default background is in place, even though there’s
   a code for an image. ????
 * And yes, I cleared the cache. More than once. It had no effect.

 * `background:#http://www.almajwilson.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/green.jpg`
   is incorrect
 * Do you have any caching plugin, I think the image stayed until the cache was 
   flushed.

 * What do you mean by “incorrect?” And how do I correct it so I can change the 
   page background?
 * Yes, I installed the Performance plug-in to clear the cache.

 * the correct syntax for background image is:
    `background:url([http://www.almajwilson.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/green.jpg](http://www.almajwilson.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/green.jpg));’

 * I copy/pasted this code and plugged it into the bottom of the string in Editor.
   Nothing happened.
 * Then I wondered if the problem was with adding it to Editor. So I deleted it 
   from there and put it in the Custom CSS window. Still no change.
 * But. Now the dark gray background has been changed to the pale pink one I tried
   to change it to in the first place.
 * I think my biggest frustration is the time delay. What am I doing wrong?

 * So I’ve been playing around with my site. The bg still hasn’t changed, and I 
   wondered if I need a background page plugin. If so, which one would you recommend?
