• Hi everyone!

    I am in doubt if I should post this question here or elsewhere.. I don’t see where the old CSS forum is.

    I am having a bit of trouble with my theme.

    It’s an old theme and it is not retina ready.

    Well, the images I post look fine on a retina display, with the exception of the header image, that looks a bit blurry.

    I would like to change that.

    The header image is supposed to be 945×150 px.

    So, I have one image with double that size, 1890×300 px.

    For what I researched, I need to change something on my functions.php file as well on the style.css.

    I had some trouble before, when changing things in the functions.php, that’s why I decided to come here, to avoid me typing wrong things on the functions.php and having that FATAL ERROR issue.

    My function.php file says this about the header image:

    /**
     * Styles the header image displayed on the Appearance > Header admin panel.
     */
    function blogum_admin_header_style() {
    ?>
    	<style type="text/css">
    		#headimg {
    			width: <?php echo HEADER_IMAGE_WIDTH; ?>px;
    			height: <?php echo HEADER_IMAGE_HEIGHT; ?>px;
    		}
    		#heading {
    			display: none;
    		}
    	</style>
    <?php
    }

    The header.php file has this:

    <?php
    		// Do we have a header image around?
    		if ( '' != get_header_image() ) :
    	?>
    	<div id="header-image">
    		<a href="<?php echo esc_url( home_url( '/' ) ); ?>" title="<?php echo esc_attr( get_bloginfo( 'name', 'display' ) ); ?>" rel="home"><img src="<?php header_image(); ?>" width="<?php echo HEADER_IMAGE_WIDTH; ?>" height="<?php echo HEADER_IMAGE_HEIGHT; ?>" alt="" /></a>
    	</div>
    	<?php endif; ?>

    The style.css file has this (no info about the size):

    #header-image {
    	margin: -25px 0 15px 0;
    }

    Do you think that I could change this, on the funcions.php

    width: <?php echo HEADER_IMAGE_WIDTH; ?>px;
    height: <?php echo HEADER_IMAGE_HEIGHT; ?>px;

    replacing it by the image’s size?

    Also replace this

    width="<?php echo HEADER_IMAGE_WIDTH; ?>" height="<?php echo HEADER_IMAGE_HEIGHT; ?>"

    on the header.php, with the image’s size?

    Or should I do something else?

    What do I need to write on the style.css file?

    What do you guys think?

    Is it something doable?

    The link to my website is https://exquisite.style

    Thank you guys!

    – Unfortunately, your currently used “blogum” theme is not in the www.ads-software.com/themes/ directory.

    – These forums are for free themes/plugins available in the WordPress theme directory at www.ads-software.com/themes/. So please contact the developer/vendor directly for support with your question. You’ll be more likely to find a good answer from them, for they have the access to its code. Forum volunteers are not given access to commercial/custom products, so they would not know why your /custom/commercial theme or plugin is not working properly. Keep in mind we encourage you to use the official support venues, as it allows the developers to be aware of issues with their code.
