Shopify themes, liquid, logos, and UX
Currently I've solutioned a background image using the following code in the Custom CSS for various sections for desktop viewing:
.gradient {
background: var(--gradient-background);
background-attachment: scroll;
background-image: url(https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0606/5707/4263/files/Gradient_Checker_Background.jpg) !important;
background-color: transparent !important;
background-position: center !important;
background-size: cover !important;
background-repeat: no;
}
However because this is a wide image, I would like to add an alternate image for the background when viewing on mobile. https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0606/5707/4263/files/Gradient_Checker_Background_mobile.jpg
Example:
1. Is there a better/easier way for me to apply background images to all of my pages?
2. How do I change the background image for mobile only?

Hello @GLL2024
Go to Online Store, then Theme, and select Edit Code.
Search for assets/base.css.
Add the provided code at the end of the file.
@media screen and (max-width: 750px) {
.gradient {
background-image: url(https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0606/5707/4263/files/Gradient_Checker_Background.jpg)!important;
}
}
You can add code by following these steps
1. Go to Online Store -> Theme -> Edit code.
2. Open your theme.liquid file
3. Paste the below code before </body> on theme.liquid
<style>
@media (max-width: 767px) {
.gradient {
background-image: https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0606/5707/4263/files/Gradient_Checker_Background_mobile.jpg !important;
}
}
</style>
