Description

This plugin allows you to add and image as background of posts, pages or custom post type in general (in the same way as a thumbnail).

FAQ

How it works?

Exactly in the same way that thumbnails works. It includes the get_the_post_background_src function which return the url of the background and the get_the_post_background_id function which return the id of the attachment.

Do I have embed the same background if I a page inherits its parent background?

No. You can pass true as second parameter on get_the_post_background_src function.
