Header Image

I have made the changes but nothing seems to help………after I save the file is there anything else I need to do

My file header.php currently looks like this………..

/* To ease the insertion of a personal header image, I have done it in such a way,
that you simply drop in an image called ‘personalheader.jpg’ into your /images/
directory. Dimensions should be at least 760px x 200px. Anything above that will
get cropped off of the image. */

#headerimg { background: url(‘https://diningonthevine.com/wp-content/themes/default/images/personalheader.jpg’) no-repeat top;}

</style>

This makes no change on my webpage though………….I have also named and placed the file personalheader in the image file located at wordpress/wp-content/themes/default/images

any suggestions would be so helpful….thanks to all who have help so far

I don’t know if you read my previous replies. I just took a look of your source code, your #header definition is still not changed.

Which CSS file are you changing? You want to alter /wp-content/themes/default/style.css .

When I try to load the image that you have specified in your #headerimg style, which is this img, I get a “file not found” 404 error. That’s at least part of the reason you’re not getting anything to display.

I finally got it working……..I was updating the file in the Word Press folder. When I updated the file located in the Public HTML folder it worked…….thanks to everybody for helping and having the patience with a beginner……..thanks again…

I am having the same problem. where do I find the “Public HTML folder?”

Hey all – I am having this exact same problem. I’m trying to change the header image on my site, mylifeonmars.com, and i’ve followed all the advice above and it isn’t working. please help. thanks!
