Background Showing Through Containers

Topic summary

Issue: After adding a custom background in base.css, sections that should have an opaque black container are showing the page background instead. This occurs when adding sections and removing text/buttons, and also with the Image with text section.

Expectation vs. behavior: The container behind these sections should be opaque black, but transparency/bleed-through is occurring.

Evidence: Two screenshots are attached; visuals are central to understanding the problem.

Request: Looking for tips on how to fix the background showing through containers.

Response: A participant asked for the store URL (and password if protected) to inspect and provide a detailed solution.

Status: Unresolved. Awaiting store link/access for further diagnosis; no code changes or fixes shared yet.

I have a custom background that I’ve added to my base.css asset file. when i try to add sections to pages and remove the text and button, my image has a section where the background shows through. This is also happening when I try to add an image with text section. There should be an opaque black background / container behind the section, but the background is showing through instead. Any tips on how to fix?
