putting image into the header

  • hi, first off i’m quite new to wordpress (been using it for about a month)and i dont really know a great deal of coding. i’m having a problem trying to insert an image into the header of my site, i use the vesper theme but i can’t find a way to add the image into the header without:
    1. making it the background
    2. it messing up the layout of the rest of the header

    on the odd occasion when i have done something right and it’s appeared i can’t move the image to where its needed in the header (left side)
    please help me i’ve been losing it over this for 2 days.

    thanks in advance for all your helpful advice

  • It seems like you have done the correct things – it may be more than you can handle from a programming standpoint.

    It may be best to post this job on https://jobs.wordpress.net – someone will be able to get this fixed for you quickly.

    Good luck

    Hi. I friend of ours set up our business website and I’m now trying to get ahead of things – without actually knowing much about wordpress. But I’m keen to learn. My first problem: We have our business logo in the header, unfortunately it’s an old one and I’d like to replace it. But I cannot make sense where the old logo was uploaded from. The logo is in the ‘media’ but the the code is a different one as the one I find the ‘header.php’ or ‘template.php’. I don’t just want to delete the code in there not knowing how I can get our new logo in the header again.

    hi, just found the solution to this. it is a fixable problem in word press and this is the piece of code you need:

    <img style=”position:absolute; top:-50px; left:-203px; width:400px; height:140px” src=”[insert img url here]”>

    ofcourse change the positioning to how you need it as well as the width and hight of image, and finally not forgetting to remove brackets when you insert image

    also for reference i found this out on this site:https://www.htmlgoodies.com/beyond/css/article.php/3470391/So-You-Want-Positioning-Huh.htm#an which explains the positioning well.

    please reuse this info for others that ask

    thanks again.
