I am just starting out with WordPress and am trying to add some controls to my backend to customize my site. The first control I added- an image selector- works just fine, but the second setting- background-size- does not save the value, so after refreshing the page, the image is back to the default value from the style.css file. All settings are applied correctly until I refresh.
Here's my code so far with both the background-image and background-size:
style.css:
section#banner {
background-image: url(images/banner.jpg);
background-size: auto;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: left top;
}
functions.php:
/**
* Customizer Options for #banner
* Theme Options Customizer Implementation.
*
* @param WP_Customize_Manager $wp_customize Object that holds the customizer data.
*/
function pf_banner_customizer( $wp_customize ){
/*
* Failsafe is safe
*/
if ( ! isset( $wp_customize ) ) {
return;
}
/**
* Add '#banner' Section.
*/
$wp_customize->add_section(
// $id
'pf_section_banner',
// $args
array(
'title' => __( '#banner', 'theme-slug' ),
'active_callback' => 'is_front_page',
'priority' => 1,
)
);
/**

$wp_customize->add_setting(
// $id
'pf_banner_background_image',

array(
'default' => get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/images/welcome-background.jpg',
'sanitize_callback' => 'esc_url_raw',

Sorry for the wall of code.
Here's a related question:
After I refresh, the Drop Down Control is empty. I would expect it to show either the current value or the default value, both 'auto'.
Any pointers are greatly appreciated!
