    Hi. I’m using this Square theme.

    I would like to change page header, but it’s not an option in the customize -section.
    I tried using the editor -section (and read tutorials), but I don’t know php enough to succeed.

    Is there any other way for a non-coder to get it customized? I love the theme and I managed to get the front page super cool. But the placeholder header doesn’t fit my design.

    Hi,

    Currently, the header is static and there is not option changing it. But we are planning to release the updated version with the option to change the page/post header from the customizer soon.

    And finally thank you for your feedback. We would love to have your review with your rating.

    Thank you for a quick answer.
    Looking forward to get the update!

    Sorry to the dev but I didn’t want to wait for the new update to come out so I figured out how to change the camera picture in the pages to the image I want. I had changed an image in a header before using CSS but it’s been awhile so I had to relearn.

    First off, create a child theme. I used a plug-in for this.

    Next, the way that I change CSS is through my host’s control panel. I use one.com and I know it is different for each host. I believe you can get a plug-in to change CSS right from your WordPress admin area.

    Find the style.css file in your file manager in your control panel or through whatever plugin you installed to your admin area.

    What I did was I found the piece of code that controlled which picture the theme used, which I will just copy and paste here for you.

    .sq-main-header{
    background: url(‘images/bg.jpg’) no-repeat top center;
    padding: 137px 0 65px;
    margin-bottom: 25px;
    }

    Ok. here’s where it can get tricky if you aren’t in your control panel. I don’t know how to add a folder to your child theme through any plugin methods. Find out how to add a folder called images to your child theme and then upload the picture you want to the folder. Make sure to use a name that is easy to remember and type in. Now, see that part of the code after (‘images/ )? change that bg.jpg to the file name and extension type of the photo you just added to your images folder. click save on whatever method you are using and refresh your website page. BAM. New picture!

    VERY IMPORTANT NOTE: The height of your picture should be 975-988 pixels. I used an online image re-sizer to get the right height and keep the aspect ratio.

    Here is a page of my site with my new picture. Check it out. https://karens-krafts.blogofrandomness.com/checkout/

    Sorry to the OP. I read this and then figured it all out and forgot you said you weren’t a coder. I know that this information will be useful to someone out there with the same problems as us though, so I am going to leave it up.

    Sorry again OP

    Thank you for your effort!

    I’m sure someone else benefits of your work. Good to know that it’s possible. Though I think I’ll better wait for the update – otherwise I might break something ;).

    Hi,

    The Page header option has been added but there is some glitch in the sidebar. We have fixed this glitch in the upcoming version.

    Currently you can download the fixed version from here.
