Heading Blur

Topic summary

Goal: make the fixed header appear as a white, semi‑transparent bar with a blur effect (matching screenshots) so underlying dark elements don’t obscure header text.

Actions taken:

  • Shared initial CSS with backdrop-filter and fixed positioning. Multiple helpers requested the store URL to tailor CSS.
  • Proposed fix added via theme.liquid (before ): fixed header, width:100%, backdrop-filter: blur(10px), background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0.9), color: black, opacity: 1.
  • Header width issue arose; resolved by adding header.header { max-width: 100% !important; }. User confirmed improvement.

Latest updates:

  • Blur effect still not applying despite adjustments. User provided the preview URL; helper requested password if applicable.
  • User reported footer layout issues after changes. Helper asked for details and suggested adjusting header position (top: -14px !important).

Status and next steps:

  • Background color and full-width behavior are addressed. Blur effect remains unresolved; footer concerns are unclear and likely need inspection on the live preview.
  • Further review of the shared store link (and password if needed) was requested to diagnose the blur and footer issues.

Notes: Multiple screenshots are central to understanding the visual differences.

Looking for some help, i’m try to get my header to look like the first photo where the back ground is more white and the black colours don’t cover the black text

header.header {
position: fixed;
top: 1px;
max-width: 100%;
left: 0px;
width: 1000%;
padding: 1px 1px;
z-index: 900;
backdrop-filter: blur(90px);
-webkit-backdrop-filter: blur(60px);
color: white !important;
opacity: 100;
}
