In today’s quick tip we will add a background image to the DIVI mobile menu using a few lines of CSS.

First of all add the image to your media library and get the URL of the image. Make sure you choose an image that contrasts well with the menu item. You can also change your menu and sub menu item colors using the DIVI theme customizer. I have used an image of 600×900 pixels.

Copy the URL from the media library as shown below.

CSS to Add a Background Image to the Mobile Menu

Add the following CSS. To do this head over to your style.css in your child theme and paste the following CSS. Alternatively you can also go to DIVI -> Theme Options and paste the css in the Custom CSS box.

.mobile_nav.closed #mobile_menu,
.mobile_nav.opened #mobile_menu {
-moz-background-size: cover;
-o-background-size: cover;
-webkit-background-size: cover;
background: url(“https://wpportfolio.com/staging/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/mobile-background.jpg”);
background-position: center;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-size: cover;
}

Make sure you change the background url to the image url that you copied from your media library.

Here is what it should look like.
