Inserting a logo into blog

  • I know this has been asked before and I’ve read soem of the responses but I get the feeling a lot of you are a bunch of geeks who want to show off the techiness and talk the lingo I just don’t frigin get.

    Is there anyone that can explain step by step where the hell I place my logo? I’ve read and read and still not getting it.

    We aren’t all IT savvy.

    Please.

  • I agree… This forum sucks. I got no help myself just a bunch of waste of time.

    Sounds like that’s what you wanted the whole time.

    wow. Newbieness doesn’t give you carte blanche to be a pissy jerk.

    There, I said it. ??

    I’m sorry I even wasted my time trying. Insolent bitch.

    This is not too hard if you know PhotoShop, HTML and understand CSS. If you do not, it would be very hard to explain. See my logo or changed head here

    For me, PhotoShop was the most important. You need to modify files at … WordPress\wp-content\themes\default\images

    Start with your header. If you can leave that the same size and just paste in your logo, it will be much easier.

    Wow! You do have a sharp tongue (mrkingid). Way to run a business with so much cursing going around. No wonder much time is wasted insulting people and getting offended with those who are honestly discouraged. Keep it up. You shouldn’t be representing WordPress… This is sad. Thanks, kmessinger.

    rootcauses,

    I don’t represent wordpress at all. No idea why you thought that.

    Being discouraged does not give you the right to be un-thankful, especially when I put over 2 hours in trying to help her. As for my remark, I think it sums her up pretty well, given her attitude in the first post.

    Glad you are at ZEN with yourself and can be so complacent in life.

    People need to learn that whilst wordpress itself is an easy system to use, writing your own theme requires patience and NON-WP specific knowledge i.e. a graphics editor, css, html.

    The support from people on the forum is generally top notch, but you do have to do some of the research yourself and if you don’t currently have the base skills (CSS/HTML) learn them and then come back.

    Learn CSS from sites like this
    https://www.w3schools.com/css/default.asp
    Then WP theme writing will make a lot more sense.

    I’m pretty new to wordpress and still very much in learning mode. I know this is an old post but just in case somebody else with the same problem stumbles across this thread, I thought I would post this as a possible solution. Insert the following into the header:

    This of course presumes that you have loaded your image into the images folder within your theme. It worked for me and may help somebody else with the same problem.

    <a href="<?php bloginfo('url'); ?>/"><img src="<?php bloginfo('template_directory'); ?>/images/yourimage" border="0" alt="" /></a>
    That’s what it should have been
