How do I make apps semi-transparent with Blur my Shell

I've seen people on Reddit do make Blur my Shell make apps semi-transparent. How do I do that?

I already have blur my shell, I just don't know how to use it to make apps semi-transparent. I don't know if I need to download an add-on from github, or something like that.

In BLur My Shell extension -> Settings --> Application tab
Note: You icons will also get semi transparent, so for me it's a no-no.
