    Sure. If for example you want the header image to be the post’s Featured Image,
    something like this should work.

    add_action( 'wp_head', 'add_header_bg_css', 999 );

function add_header_bg_css() {

	if ( !has_post_thumbnail() ) return;

	$img = get_the_post_thumbnail( get_the_ID() );

	echo '<style>#header { background-image: url(\'' . $img . '\'); }</style>';
}

    Thanks so much. What code would be used to change the header image when a person navigates to a certain wordpress page?

    What files do you add that action and function to?
