Changing the white background of the landing page (hero section) with background: url() is not recognised by netlify about simplefolio HOT 6 CLOSED

After several hours of fruastration (lol), I got it to work, by removing the quotes from the url(), i.e. changing url("") to url().
Thanks everyone, might be helpful to someone

Also if you're having problem getting your resume to showup when you click the view resume button, this worked for me:
In your template.html: target the resume with the href attribute:

<a target="_blank" class="cta-btn cta-btn--resume" href="./assets/name_of_pdf_file.pdf">
                  View Resume
</a>

then in your index.js:
(1.) import the resume

import MyResume from './assets/FranksResume2020.pdf';

(2.)Then modify the addResume function like this, using whatever name of your resume as parameter(in my case, I named it MyResume as you can see):

function addResume(MyResume){
  const elements = document.getElementsByClassName('.cta-btn--resume');
  for(let el of elements){
    el.href = url(MyResume);
  }
}

also remember to call addResume function at the bottom... or I think it should already be there... well check to see:

...

addResume();     
initSr();
initTilt();

hey did you manage to change the background to an image?

from simplefolio.

if so can you post the css / scss

from simplefolio.

In your _hero.scss, under hero id: (don't include quotes in your url( ) )

background: linear-gradient(to bottom, rgba(0,0,0,.7), rgba(0,0,0,.7)),  url(../assets/background.jpg) center no-repeat;
  background-attachment: fixed;
  background-size: cover;
