</div>

this seems to happen to me too, if I understood the issue correctly.

When I set a custom background images, posts within topics have no table white background, rather it’s just the custom background being displayed, and it’s not the best for clarity purposes.

Other things such as “suggested topics” properly display the background color.

I can provide examples if needed.
