About this plugin
Custom Background Changer lets you control the background of every post and page individually. Go far beyond plain colors with beautiful CSS gradients, full-screen background images, translucent color overlays, and looping MP4 video backgrounds — all from a premium tabbed settings panel right inside the post editor.
Features in v4.0
- Solid Color – Pick any background color via the color picker.
- CSS Gradient – Pick two colors and an angle to generate a smooth linear gradient.
- Background Image – Upload an image with full control over attachment, repeat, position, and size (including cover/contain).
- Color Overlay – Add a translucent color layer on top of your image or video to improve text readability.
- MP4 Video Background – Set a looping, auto-playing, muted video as your page background.
- Performance – CSS and JS assets load only on post/page edit screens in the admin. Zero impact on all other pages.
- Secure – All input is sanitized. All output is properly escaped. Nonce-protected saves.
