Hello,

I’m currently working on a new website and I’m having some issues with the slideshow in the Simfo theme. They are:
1) There is a black background behind the images. It’s larger than any of the images and I want to shrink it. Is there a way to do that through code?
2) The menu drop boxes are hidden behind the slideshow and are unable to be accessed. Is there a way to have them as the top “layer” of the site?
The website is: http://winekitzottawa.wordpress.com/
Thanks!
The blog I need help with is winekitziris.ca

Hi there,

1) There is a black background behind the images. It’s larger than any of the images and I want to shrink it. Is there a way to do that through code?

Try adding this code under Appearance > Custom Design. Click the CSS tab and add this completely below the existing green comments:
```
.slideshow-window {

background-color: transparent !important;

border: none !important;

}
```
Click Save when you’re done.

2) The menu drop boxes are hidden behind the slideshow and are unable to be accessed. Is there a way to have them as the top “layer” of the site?

Thanks for letting us know about this glitch. I’ll report it to our theme developers and we’ll let you know when it’s been fixed.

Hi there, I’m following-up regarding the slideshow. This is a glitch with the slideshow itself, and not the theme. I’ll report this to the developers who work on the slideshow. For now, you can fix this temporarily by adding a “z-index: 1” to the “.slideshow-window” CSS that Kathryn provided above. I went ahead and took care of it for you. So now, your CSS looks like this:
```
.slideshow-window {

background-color: transparent !important;

z-index: 1;
```
Let us know if you have any other questions!
