Question

I want to know how to change the background-color of  jumbotron  class  it has a default background-color  eee in bootstrap css    I tried to override by erasing this and giving the attribute none none  important  transparent into my custom css and still doesn t work    I tried inspecting the element in the browser window and removing the property there to see if there was any change  it s still the same problem   It will adopt any other color  except removing the color entirely  The reason I m asking this is because I have a full background image and want jumbotron to simply transparent with no background or color to it  Unless    I m missing something from the BootStrap 3 1 1 documentation in which I checked there as well   NOTE  I would use jsfiddle net to easily show you  but it doesn t support 3 1 1 and not sure how to implement bootstrap into it   HTML                             lt title gt Full Page Image Background Template for Bootstrap 3 lt  title gt    lt  -- Bootstrap core CSS -- gt   lt link href  css bootstrap css  rel  stylesheet  gt    lt  -- Custom CSS for the  Full  Template -- gt   lt link href  css full css  rel  stylesheet  gt         lt  --Displays the Navigation Bar Style-- gt   lt div class  navbar navbar-default navbar-fixed-top  gt       lt  --Displays the Navigation Bar Content-- gt       lt div class  navbar-header  gt           lt  -- displays the icon bar in responsive view  when clicked reveals a list-- gt           lt button type  button  class  navbar-toggle  data-toggle  collapse  data-target   navbar-responsive-collapse  gt               lt  -- displays the icon bars in responsive view -- gt               lt span class  icon-bar  gt  lt  span gt               lt span class  icon-bar  gt  lt  span gt               lt span class  icon-bar  gt  lt  span gt           lt  button gt           lt  --Brand  Logo of your website-- gt           lt a class  navbar-brand  href     gt Virtual Productionz  Inc  lt  a gt       lt  div gt        lt  -- Allows collapse show navbar in responsive view-- gt       lt div class  navbar-collapse collapse navbar-responsive-collapse  gt           lt ul class  nav navbar-nav  gt             lt li class  active  gt  lt a href     gt Home lt  a gt  lt  li gt             lt li gt  lt a href     gt About Us lt  a gt  lt  li gt             lt  -- Dropdown menu-- gt             lt li class  dropdown  gt               lt a href     class  dropdown-toggle  data-toggle  dropdown  gt Products  lt b class  caret  gt  lt  b gt  lt  a gt               lt ul class  dropdown-menu  gt                 lt li gt  lt a href     gt Integrated Laser Keyboard lt  a gt  lt  li gt                 lt li gt  lt a href     gt More    lt  a gt  lt  li gt               lt  ul gt             lt  li gt             lt li gt  lt a href     gt Contact Us lt  a gt  lt  li gt           lt  ul gt       lt  div gt   lt  div gt     lt div class  jumbotron  gt       lt h1 gt Welcome  lt  h1 gt       lt p gt We re an awesome company that creates virtual things for portable devices  lt  p gt       lt p gt  lt a class  btn btn-primary btn-lg  role  button  gt Learn more lt  a gt  lt  p gt   lt  div gt     lt  -- JavaScript -- gt   lt script src  js jquery-1 10 2 js  gt  lt  script gt   lt script src  js bootstrap js  gt  lt  script gt        CSS  w  bootstrap css    import url  bootstrap min css     import url  bootstrap-theme css     body   margin-top  50px     50px is the height of the navbar - change this if the navbarn height changes        full      background  url http   placehold it 1920x1080  no-repeat center center fixed     background  url     images laser keyboard jpg   no-repeat center center fixed   -webkit-background-size  cover   -moz-background-size  cover   -o-background-size  cover   background-size  cover      jumbotron  color   FFFFFF    background-color none  important

You don t necessarily have to use custom CSS  or even worse inline CSS   in Bootstrap 4 you can use the utility classes for colors  like    lt div class  jumbotron bg-dark text-white  gt        And if you need other colors than the default ones  just add additional bg-classes using the same naming convention  This keeps the code neat and understandable   You might also need to set text-white on child-elements inside the jumbotron  like headings
