How to change an jpeg Image in my city revolution theme

  • I am using the City Revolution Theme and I would like to change one of the grafics on the right side. I have a 300 x 300 .jpg file that I need to insert. Can someone tell me how to do this? I went to the theme editor and saw the html code were the old file is but there is no way to save once that find old image and insert the new jpeg file. I can’t get my web designer to help me so I’m trying to figure this out myself. I do have access to the cpanel for my site and found the old file name there as well but don’t know how the change the image there.
    Please help!

  • Hi

    Open the sidebar.php file in the WP admin area under Appearances/ Editor

    Find this section in your file (it may not look exactly like the code here)

    <div class="newsletter">
   <!--To enable the eNews &amp; Upates feature, go to your WP dashboard and go to Presentation -> Revolution City Options and enter your Feedburner ID.-->
   <a href="https://magnoliainspector.com/?page_id=19"><img src="https://magnoliainspector.com/wp-content/themes/revolution_city-10/images/book-now.jpg" alt="Book Your Inspection Now! Click Here" border="0" /></a></div>

    Starting at the closing </a></div> in that code, make it look like this below. (You are inserting your new code in between the existing </a> and existing </div>)

    </a><br />
  <a href="https://magnoliainspector.com/{put URL for new images; link here}><img src="https://magnoliainspector.com/wp-content/themes/revolution_city-10/images/{newFileNameHere}.jpg" alt="Change to new description...Book Your Inspection Now! Click Here" border="0" /></a>
</div>

    Change the URL of the link and the filename of the image. That’s all.

    Thanks for the fast response to my question. I opened the sidebar.php file and this message is at the bottom “You need to make this file writable before you can save your changes. See the Codex for more information”.

    Do I have to do something special to be able to save changes once I insert the new code?

    Hi – This means the permissions that are set on your webhosting account for that file do not allow WordPress to make any changes to the file.

    You can change this in your webhosting control panel using the file management program. You can also edit the file (generally) within that same program. If you have no idea what I am talking about you may want someone who can get into your webhosting control panel to help you. If you do know what I mean, that would be a good approach.
