/* ================================================================
   PAGES — FEATURED IMAGE BANNER (matches single-post behaviour)
   ================================================================

   Kadence defaults: pages get title_layout=above (hero section),
   no feature image shown. Our functions.php filter flips this to
   title=normal + feature=show/behind for any page with a thumbnail.
   The CSS below supports that new layout and keeps the animated
   body background visible through all page content.
   ================================================================ */

      (body animation lives in Customizer → Additional CSS). */

.page .site-main,
.page .content-area,

  box-shadow: none !important;
}

/* 2. No white bar: hide the Kadence entry-hero section on pages.
      With title='normal' (set by the filter) the hero doesn't
      render at all; this rule is a safety net for any edge case. */
.page .entry-hero {
  display: none !important;
}

/* 3. Space below the transparent header so it overlaps the banner
      image rather than covering the article text.
      Mirrors the same rule already applied to .single. */
.page.transparent-header #primary,
.page.mobile-transparent-header #primary {
  padding-top: 80px !important;
}

/* 4. The entry article sits z-index:1 above the behind-position image.
      Ensure its background is transparent so you see the banner image
      through the negative-margin overlap area. */
