        @Sean said in How add transparent background to modules:

        .module.calendar {
        background-color:rgba(0,0,0,0.6);
        border-radius:8px;
        padding:8px;
        }

        I have tried this format …

        .module.calendar {
          background-color:rgba(0,0,0,0.6);
          border-radius:8px;
          padding:8px;
        }
        

        and it works perfect for most modules but simply will not work for currentweather, weatherforecast or compliments?
        Any ideas folks?

            @broberg Hi mate. Thanks for taking the time.
            I will copy it below… The PushBullet Notification one works fine but ones i mentioned don’t…

             body {
            
            
            
            
            .module.currentweather {
              background-color:rgba(0,0,0,0.6);
              border-radius:8px;
              padding:8px;
            }
            
            
             }
            
            .module.MMM-PushBulletNotifications {
              background-color:rgba(0,0,0,0.6);
              border-radius:8px;
              padding:8px;
            }
            
            
            
             }
            
            .module.compliments {
              background-color:rgba(0,0,0,0.6);
              border-radius:8px;
              padding:8px;
            }
            
            
             }
            
            
            
             }
            
            .module.weatherforecast {
              background-color:rgba(0,0,0,0.6);
              border-radius:8px;
              padding:8px;
            }
            

            Regards

              Okey,
              I see your problem.

              You have put the .module.currentweather{} within the body{ }

              Just remove the first line body { and the lonely } before .module.MMM-PushBulletNotifications {

              Then it will work just fine.

              And btw, You have a lot of stray }-brackets remove them aswell

                  I am not having any success with this either. Here is my CSS. Can someone help me out?

                  body {
                  	color: #aaa;
                  }
                  
                  .dimmed {
                    color: #666;
                  }
                  
                  .normal {
                    color: #999;
                  }
                  
                  .bright {
                    color: #fff;
                  }
                  
                  .module.clock {
                    background-color:rbga(255,255,255,0.4);
                    border-radius:8px;
                    padding:8px;
                  }
