  • What theme is it? Can you provide a link so that we can download it and see?

    I uploaded this and turned on their content from the original site template.

    If you’ve paid for that theme, I would ask them for assistance. If it was free I would download it and look, but I can’t go and buy it.

    Thanks.
    They don’t seem to support??
    Looks like I wasted my $$
    Cheers

    That doesn’t make much sense.. In the files that they gave you isn’t there a header.php file? All WordPress should have that.

    Theme Forest is meant to be one of the better ones. I would contact them if I were you.

    This is the Header.php code in the theme (I am not technical in this so it doesn’t make much sense to me?

    <?php

    * We filter the output of wp_title() a bit — see
    * twentyten_filter_wp_title() in functions.php.
    */
    wp_title( ‘|’, true, ‘right’ );

    ?></title>

    That looks like the header file to me. When you say you are trying to configure it, what are you trying to do.
    You can see from the code, that it’s using a set of template options. If all you are wanting to do is change the image or logo, then you should go through the options first.

    Hi
    When I use the standard template supplied with WordPress (Twenty Eleven) there is an option in the dashboard under Appearance called Header as well as Background. (as well as Theme, Widget, Menus, Theme Options, Editor)
    When I activate the Centivio theme these two items are NOT in the menu under Appearance.
    The header files I sent you were from c:/wamp/www/wp-content/themes/centivio
