Try this:
Go to Header under Appearance in your WordPress Dashboard
Now click on Choose File and select an image from the desired location and click on Upload
Then you will see “Crop Header Image” box where you can use your mouse and select an area to crop in the image
Finally, click on Crop and Publish
Let me know if that works 🙂
That works I’m attempting now to add this:
remove_filter( ‘HEADER_IMAGE_WIDTH’, ‘ catchbox_header_image_width’ );
remove_filter( ‘HEADER_IMAGE_HEIGHT’, ‘ catchbox_header_image_height’ );
define( ‘HEADER_IMAGE_WIDTH’, apply_filters( ‘catchbox_header_image_width’, 840 ) );
define( ‘HEADER_IMAGE_HEIGHT’, apply_filters( ‘catchbox_header_image_height’, 100 ) );
To the Custom CSS styles to see if it will allow me to add a custom sized header image.
I managed to get it to work BUT….
I really want it in the background and the header text to be on top of it not forcing it down. any ideas?
whats you’re site address? I can take a look and let you know If I come up with some CSS to fix that for you 🙂
I’d love to remove the search in the header and make it one big image.
Is there also a way to have a full screen image in the background that does not tile?
Images in background: use the css background-sizing property. See https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/background-size for how to use.
So I tried some of this – it looked, well ROUGH.
I witched my theme Twenty Fourteen and am now customizing it.
The only two items I can’t find are changing the green rollovers to gold and adding an image above the title.

Sorry, just trying to narrow down what you’d like to do with the header and search bar…
Are you wanting to change the color of the header at the top and add some space between the top of the page and the page and the header?
I changed the theme because it looked horrible and wasn’t working out right – I found the issue but still looked bad.
Now I’m just trying to change the green navigation to – #fdb610
I’m going through the entire style.CSS but can’t find the roll over links.
Also not sure how to add the logo.
ah, okay, re read your last post lol. You want to add an image above the header or a slider to your page?
If you look at how it is now – it’s much more clean would you agree?
The theme has to roll over in green on the top and side nav which needs to match my gold. Do you know where those tags are in the style.css?
Yes I also want to add my logo above the name.
How about you email me and we can get this figured out 🙂 I’m more than willing to help you out
So far, I’m not seeing any changes on the website. Have you saved the changes to make them live?
Completely new theme – published: http://www.ev2.me/test/blog/
