- I agree with what you are saying, but as of last night's testing the whole
custom-background process is no longer working as it did?!<BR><BR>My first
thought *is* to remove the functionality (both in Parent-Themes and
Child-Themes) ... but I would rather only remove functionality as a last
resort.<BR><BR><BR clear=all>Cais.<BR><BR><BR>

remove_theme_support('custom-background');<BR>}<BR><BR>Bottom line is that if
the theme supports custom backgrounds, and<BR>you're not using the custom
backgrounds properly, then you should<BR>either use it properly or remove it.
Leaving it there while setting<BR>the background in an alternate manner is
just asking for problems.<BR>
