I recently updated my mac to Mojave and the Finder bar / Menu bar and Dock is now a solid color instead of the having the transparent effect. How do i fix this
See if "Reduce Transparency" is enabled in System Preferences > Accessibility > Display

You need to have a lighter object behind the menu bar and Dock to see transparency in Dark or Light mode. In the following, I am in Dark mode.
Exhibit A - Menubar (lighter than without a dark background desktop picture)
Exhibit B - Dock
I am running 10.14.6 (18G103) and in Light mode, using the same Desktop picture as you, my Dock background and the menu bar show color influence of the underlying parts of the Desktop picture — not what you have shown.
In the past, have you installed any third-party Dock or menubar customization software that may be interfering with the normal behavior now?
I tried turning it on and off still, the same
Sorry. Not true…
Light Mode restores semi-transparency to the Dock and menu bar. Dark mode is not transparent.
Nope its just a solid color
I think your post shows transparency in the Dock with a light Desktop picture, as does my follow up post.

FWIW, Your Dock looks dark because you are using a dark background image.

Yes I know. I was responding to your post…
Dark mode is not transparent.
I always use dark desktop pictures to spare my eyesight, so my bad, for not testing with a lighter pix before making that blatantly wrong assumption. 🙃
Why is my Dock and Menu bar not transparent/Blur Effect
