Symptom
- After updating the home page to the latest version and saving a custom theme change (for example, header color), the home page displays a default light blue background image.
- The default background overlays or replaces the configured background (custom image or no image).
- Setting background image opacity to 0% as suggested in KBA 2787362 does not remove the default image.
- No error message is displayed.

Reproducing the Issue

Click Save.
