Adding a filter to my section affects my child elements

I’m trying to blur my section’s background image, without having it blur all of the child images as well. I know it can be done, cause of seen examples of it on the tutorials. I’m one week new to Webflow, so I’m still working my way around it.

I’ve experienced this problem before as well. The solution I found was to remove the background image from the section, add a div inside the section that is absolutely-positioned and set to “fill”, then you can add a filter to that div without affecting the rest of the elements. Just remember to move the z-index of your section elements above the background div.

I just tried your recommendation, but it’s still not working for me. Clearly, it’s working for you, so I’m not sure what I’m doing wrong.
