You can access the main settings under Settings > cbParallax in your WordPress admin. If you enable the “Individual Background Images” option, a meta box will appear on your post/page edit screens. ### Why doesn’t it work with my theme? Most likely your theme doesn’t support the WordPress `custom-background` theme feature. Check with your theme author to see if they can add support. The theme needs to call `add_theme_support('custom-background')`. ### My theme supports custom-background but it still doesn’t work! Make sure no container element (like a full-width wrapper) is covering the body element where the background is displayed. You may need to add some CSS transparency to your content container. ### How do I add theme support? If you’re a theme developer, add this to your theme’s functions.php: add_theme_support(‘ custom-background’ ); ### What image dimensions work best? For the best parallax effect, use images at least 1920px wide and 1200px tall. This ensures smooth scrolling on fullHD displays with room for the parallax movement. ### Can I disable the parallax effect on mobile? Yes! There’s an option in the settings to disable the parallax effect on mobile devices, which can help with performance. ## Reviews ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/518d1d445b7b51f8f4fe4d8a8de7f7207761bd1c0e5a87201cf2556fb1c9ad1e? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Working on last update!](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/working-on-last-update/)󠁿 [volicius](https://profiles.wordpress.org/volicius/) Agosto 15, 2020 And it does just want we need, BACKGROUND IMAGE WITH PARALLAX!! ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/982433ac839e5cb85cf2f5ee2206a5c67a991bb10e66cde654165c7904a17695? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Love it!

And it works with Divi! My only suggestions to the developer: 1. Update it to 5.0 compatiblilty (I mean, it WORKS, but make sure your plugin is secure) 2. Any way you can make it scroll smoothly? When I mouse-wheel the motion is choppy. Try interpolating the change in position… 🙂 ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/89a9b11eb653c1cc3f3bd2034b0bfb333897eede572a3dbf23886d2b3991fab5? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Great plugin](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/great-plugin-14336/)󠁿 [sharcs](https://profiles.wordpress.org/sharcs/) Hulyo 1, 2017 Plugin works, the controls are simple but effective and the support was great. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/a84e66606c5fc113f562ee893b795c30a88f634e4ff164a6f741ebd89052ca41? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Amazing plugin!](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/amazing-plugin-712/)󠁿 [alainmelsens](https://profiles.wordpress.org/alainmelsens/) Abril 19, 2017 3 replies This is an amazing and very useful plugin.

As of version 0.4.2, it’s not yet possible to have defaults for background images and parallax options for the scroll effect, so you have to repeat the setting for each page and post you want it on. But that’s already everything I’m missing a bit 🙂 Edit: As of version 0.6.0, Demis has added a feature for default background settings now. You find it at “Settings cbParallax” in your WordPress site.
