使背景图像透明而不影响Jekyll主题中的前景文本

Question

I am a newbie with HTML and CSS. I am using this Jekyll boostrap landing theme to build a static responsive website. I want to change the background image for it and make it transparent in order to highlight the foreground text. I understand that there are similar questions asked already but they don't work when I tried to apply them for my code base. I would appreciate if I could get a working solution for the css styling that the theme has.

The relevant html & css code that comes with the theme is as below

<div class="intro-header">        
    <div class="container">
        <div class="row">
            <div class="col-lg-12">
                <div class="intro-message">
                    <h1>{{ page.title }}</h1>
                    <br><h3>{{ page.subTitle }}</h3>
                </div>
            </div>
        </div>

    </div>
    <!-- /.container -->

</div>

The CSS code is

.intro-header {
    padding-top: 50px; /* If you're making other pages, make sure there is 50px of padding to make sure the navbar doesn't overlap content! */
    padding-bottom: 50px;
    text-align: center;
    color: #f8f8f8;
    background-size: cover;
}

@media (min-width: 200px) {
  .intro-header {
    background-image: url(/img/website_background_d5moc7_c_scale,w_200.jpg);
  }
}

/* more media queries for different widths */

@media (min-width: 1329px) {
  .intro-header {
    background-image: url(/img/website_background_d5moc7_c_scale,w_1329.jpg);
  }
}

@media (min-width: 1400px) {
  .intro-header {
    background-image: url(/img/website_background_d5moc7_c_scale,w_1400.jpg);
  }
}

.intro-message {
    position: relative;
    padding-top: 20%;
    padding-bottom: 20%;
}

.intro-message > h1 {
    text-shadow: 2px 2px 3px rgba(0,0,0,0.6);
    font-size: 5em;
}

.intro-divider {
    width: 400px;
    border-top: 1px solid #f8f8f8;
    border-bottom: 1px solid rgba(0,0,0,0.2);
}

.intro-message > h3 {
    text-shadow: 2px 2px 3px rgba(0,0,0,0.6);
}

@media(max-width:767px) {
    .intro-message {
        padding-bottom: 15%;
    }

    .intro-message > h1 {
        font-size: 3em;
    }

    .intro-divider {
        width: 100%;
    }
}

How do I modify the above code to make the background transparent and foreground bright?

Thanks!

Set the Background Image to 'none' in CSS. In order to override the theme styles, make it more specific. Don't directly edit the theme CSS file, It's a bad practice. You have to write the below CSS in your CSS file.

div.intro-header {
  background-image: none;
}
