In order to increase the width and height of the logo and header column, please use the following CSS Code inside WordPress Dashboard > Appearances > Customize > Additional CSS:

.cm-site-branding img {
   width:200px;
}
.cm-header-1{
    height: 100px;
}

Let me know if this helps you or not and I will be back.

hi barsha,

thank you very much for your answer. i was able to change the header size, but not the logo size. i wanted the logo in the header and footer to be the same size as on my old website https://www.lifestyle-generation.it. but apparently that doesn’t work because the logos are no longer normal images, because i replaced them with the svg format.

Hi @seto76,

Thanks for reaching back,

Currenlty, the site is using the maximum logo size you have uploaded. Since the maximum size is being uploaded, it cannot display the logo size more than the uploaded size. So I suggest you increase the logo size and upload on your end, which might help you achieve the desired result on your end.

Let me know the update after doing so and I will be back.

hi barsha,

increasing the size of the logo does nothing. it doesn’t work. the logos are the same size on both sites, but on the new site it is strangely displayed smaller and i honestly don’t understand why.

i wrote down for you how the two sites differ, maybe you will notice something.

i also uploaded the logo from the old site to the new site and the logo is still displayed smaller. clearing cache etc. didn’t help either.

so i guess it has something to do with the new theme version.

old site:
theme version: colormag 2.1.8
uploaded logo: 446 x 75 pixel
displayed logo: 446 x 75 pixel
logo format: .png

new site:
theme: colormag 3.0.2
uploaded logo: 446 x 75 pixel
displayed logo: 342 x 58 pixel
logo format: .svg

Hi @seto76,

Thanks for reaching back,

As mentioed earlier, with the latest version of the ColorMag theme we have set the size of the logo i.e logo gets displayed within that specified area. It doesnot display the width more than 342px with heigh of 244. This was done to make sure that the right sidebar content doesnot get effected due to the large size of the logo added. So wth the major release of ColorMag, we have set the size of the logo within the theme.

Also, while checking the site, the logo seems to be looking fine. For your confirmation please check the screenshot here: https://prnt.sc/Q7y51bqdemQv

I hope you’re clear. Let me know of any confusion or issues, and I will be back.
