In the blocks section, I want to have a switch that – when flipped – it changes the background image. I see the block for changing the background image. You’ll see I’ve added it. But I don’t see any image picker or any place where I can actually select which image to set it to.

Any help on this?

Hey ! If you have uploaded your image already, just type its name (example : image.png) in a text block and insert it, if it is an online image, just paste the full url

Hope it helps 🙂
