Image went darker on a slideshow

Shopify Discussion

Topic summary

A user encountered an issue where slideshow images appeared darker than intended on desktop (but not mobile) on their Shopify store using the Enterprise theme.

Problem Details:

  • Images displayed with unwanted darkening overlay
  • Issue only affected desktop view
  • Located in slideshow section

Solution Provided:
Two community members offered the same CSS fix:

  • Navigate to Edit code → main.css
  • Add the following code at the end of the file:
#template--24656934895961__slideshow .media::after {
    background-color: unset !important;
}

Outcome:
The solution successfully resolved the darkening issue. The problem was caused by an unwanted background overlay on the media element, which the CSS override removed.

On my website https://sofareva-literie.myshopify.com/ , the image is going darker than it should, and it’s not the case on mobile. The section is a slideshow.

I tried differents code, none really worked, if someone can give me a quick solution?

My Theme is Enterprise

Thanks !
