How to add logo to theme.

  • Hello. I am new to word press but i am getting the hang of it.
    The latest edition to my 2day old blog is a new theme.

    Now i have edited it as i like and changed a couple of things and its great. Now the main thing i would like is to be able to add my Website logo along the top section, Around the place where it says the Website title.

    The time i have is this one: https://themes.wordpress.net/columns/3-columns/4165/redie-30/

    I tried with the right code of html and image link and so on and it displayed fine! but it made everything move down on the page but none of the images and of course the website title is still there.

    Thanks for reading

    Sorry but its a little confusing, even for someone who has a small amound of html knowledge,

    First of all it doesnt tell you what files to add and where to add any code.

    <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "https://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"><html xmlns="https://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"><head profile="https://gmpg.org/xfn/11"><meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="<?php bloginfo('html_type'); ?>; charset=<?php bloginfo('charset'); ?>" /><meta name="description" content="" /><meta name="keywords" content="wordpress themes" /><meta name="copyright" content="" /><link rel="stylesheet" href="<?php bloginfo('stylesheet_url'); ?>" type="text/css" media="screen" /><link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="RSS 2.0" href="<?php bloginfo('rss2_url'); ?>" /><link rel="alternate" type="text/xml" title="RSS .92" href="<?php bloginfo('rss_url'); ?>" /><link rel="alternate" type="application/atom+xml" title="Atom 0.3" href="<?php bloginfo('atom_url'); ?>" /><link rel="pingback" href="<?php bloginfo('pingback_url'); ?>" /><link rel="icon" href="/favicon.ico" type="image/x-icon" /><link rel="EditURI" type="application/rsd+xml" title="RSD" href="https://scott-m.net/xmlrpc.php?rsd" /><meta name="generator" content="WordPress <?php bloginfo('version'); ?>" /><?php wp_get_archives('type=monthly&format=link'); ?><?php wp_head(); ?></head><body><div id="wrapper"> <div id="container"> <div id="headers"> <div class="right-head"> <div id="s-form"> <form method="get" action="<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']; ?>"> <p class="pfield"><input name="s" type="text" class="ptext" value="<?php the_search_query(); ?>"/></p> <p class="pbutton"><input name="submit" type="image" src="<?php bloginfo('stylesheet_directory');?>/images/go.gif" /></p> </form> </div> <div id="navigators"> <ul><li><a href="<?php echo get_settings('home'); ?>">Home</a></li><?php wp_list_pages('title_li=&depth=1'); ?> </ul> </div> </div> <div class="left-head"> <h1><a href="<?php echo get_settings('home'); ?>"><?php bloginfo('name'); ?></a></h1><p><?php bloginfo('description'); ?></p>> </div> </div> <div id="top-content"></div>

    This is whats in the header of the theme and i want to remve the title of the blog and description and add a logo in place of my choice.

    Keep reading the codex until you get to this part:

    As listed in the two above examples, the styles for the header are contained within the h1, header, headerimg, and description CSS selectors. These are all found within the style.css, though may be found in the styles in the header.php of the Theme you are using. You will have to check both places.

    Note that it indicates that you will find the needed information in either the file “style.css” or in the ‘styles’ SECTION of the file “header.php”.

    I’m just beginning my own journey into this particular brand of madness, so my answer probably isn’t definitive but might be enough to give you a shove in the right direction.
