With the code you gave me I get this error

Fatal error: Call to undefined function remove_theme_support() in /home/iamaleksandra/visualizingclimatechange.ca/wp-content/themes/twentythirteen-child/functions.php on line 3

And here’s the child theme with functions https://visualizingclimatechange.ca/wp-content/themes/twentythirteen-child/

Hmmmm I am not sure why that is – but here’s my child theme css link https://visualizingclimatechange.ca/wp-content/themes/twentythirteen-child/style.css

I think so, here you go visualizingclimatechange.ca – and yes I did make the changes in the sylesheet as well.

Hi, I just tried the suggestion you posted on this thred, and it seems not to work for me https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/massive-headers?replies=16.

Where would I be uploading the new header? The header uploader on the admin panel still has 230px height and i have to crop my header to that.

This one doesn’t work, again, https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/how-to-change-twenty-thirteen-header-image-height?replies=7.

This one here I am just trying out. It seems to be your suggestion.

Do you know if your suggestion will adjust the uploader size in admin panel?

Thanks,

Umm…okay. And when I do that, what should I proceed to? Thanks!!!

Sorry I meant from the original theme Twenty Thirteen. I downloaded the functions.php file from Twenty Thirteen and then uploaded it into my child theme.

Hi there, yes I am. I had a functions.php file in there but it wasn’t empty. It was as is from the original child theme, and I just inserted suggested code fixes in that file. Should it be empty?

Thanks!

Hello FkdkWeb,

I tried using your method – but I can’t seem to get it to work. Are you able to determine what am I doing wrong?

Here’s the functions.php – I added it just under this first line:

/**
 * Add support for a custom header image.
 */
require get_template_directory() . '/inc/custom-header.php';

/**
 * Bigger header.
 */
function twentythirteen_custom_header_setup() {
	$args = array( 'height' => 300 );
	add_theme_support( 'custom-header', $args );}

add_action( 'after_setup_theme', 'twentythirteen_custom_header_setup' );

[Moderator Note: Please post code & markup between backticks or use the code button. Your posted code may now have been permanently damaged by the forum’s parser.]

And the CSS:

/*Make site header height larger*/
.site-header .home-link {min-height: 300px;}

This is at visualizingclimatechange.ca.

Thanks!

Thanks – I will remember that for future. Also, that fixed the problem so big thanks to you!

In addition I think this kind of explains some of it (found it on a different posting on the forum):

“What i ended up doing was wrapping the header in a div with a
width and height of 100% and set a background image to repeat-x; So the div basically encompasses the header with the navigation contained within it. This is all in header.php”

Okay, so I think I will have to revise my whole approach to this problem. I think i will start another topic and add a wrapper instead and then add a logo…thanks for the help thus far!

Okay so that kind of worked…halfway there. If you spot now you will see that the logo appears above the blue header image. I was hoping to put it on top of it as in front of the header image.

Thoughts?
