    Hi, i was wondering if there is a way to make the header image bigger than the suggested size of 1180 × 160.

    Thanks.

  • Could you provide a direct link to the file you want to use for your header? It may be possible to do it with CSS alone, but we’d need to see the dimensions of the file. Thanks

    Any image with an height bigger than 150 really.

    for example : https://www.longhiver.net/image/biglogo.jpg

    Thanks for your time answering this!

    Instead of uploading your logo as a custom header, I’d suggest you use the Site Logo feature built into Sela. The feature is available through the Jetpack plugin. Once active, you’ll be able to upload your logo in the Customizer, under Site Title, Tagline, and Logo. Not only does this allow you to display a logo of any size, but the image will behave responsively, looking good at any size of device, unlike the custom header, which is a background image and may be cropped on smaller devices.

    I uploaded your test logo in version 1.0.2 of Sela with Jetpack’s site logo feature, and it appeared at its original size:

    Sela 1 0 2 by Automattic tagline

    Let me know if you have any other questions.

    It worked great.

    Thanks a lot for your time!

    Great, glad that did the trick and you’re very welcome.

    What are the minimum dimensions for the logo (if any)? I ask because I uploaded an 1180×180 image, and it appears pretty small. How do I get it to fill in the entire area?

    Here is the link to my file: https://www.adonyawong.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/10/header.jpg.

    Thanks!

    adonyawong – there isn’t a minimum logo size. Did you get this issue sorted out? I checked adonyawong.com but it looks like perhaps you’ve disabled right-clicking, so I’m unable to troubleshoot using a browser inspector. The header image is being displayed at the maximum of 1180 x 380px.

    If you still need help, could you please start a new thread? Thanks.
