Adding Images in Polarity

Polarity allows you to add hero background, client, featured, and project or portfolio images in the template.

Adding a Hero Background Image

To add your own hero background image, follow these instructions:

  1. Select the image from your PC that you want to display and resize it, if necessary.
  2. Copy the image to the assets/images folder.
    • If you’re testing the template locally on your PC, then simply copy the image.
    • If you’ve already uploaded the template to your host’s server, then FTP the image into the assets/images folder.
  3. Open the index.html file in a code editor and look for the hero section within the file.
  4. Change the file name to the file name of your background image.
    • For more information, refer to the code example.
  5. Save the file and view the updates on your PC.
    • If you’re testing locally, simply drag the index.html file into an empty tab of your favorite internet browser.
    • If you’ve already uploaded the template to your host’s server, then FTP the updated index.html file, and then view it in your browser.

Here is the code which you need to modify to display your new hero background image:
