I take it your theme doesn’t have an upload header option in wp-admin?

Unfortunately not… I was able to change it previously by editing it directly through the hosting site and just adjusting the file name.
Yeah, this part sucks. You have to edit the theme and either add in an upload header option OR change the code in the header to look for image-siteID.jpg instead of image.jpg
Then you would save each image like that in the theme folder.

It doesn’t look like I can add in a header option. With the second option, the theme seems to be held at the admin level and not at the site level, so updating the code in the header I don’t think would work. Is there a way to create the theme so each site gets its own version? Is there no real easier way to do this?
It’s still done at the admin level.
The code for the header image is pulling in image/header.jpg
or such, right?
You change that to pull in image/header-<?php echo $blog_id ?>.jpg
instead.
You have to add this to your theme function: global $blog_id;
But it works. Then just upload header-#.jpg, where each number is the site ID and match it to the header you want.

Sadly my website editing skills aren’t exactly that amazing yet. I understand the concept of needing to change the admin level header to need the blog id but what you have stated above seems more complicated than I can figure out. Is there an easier way to explain what needs to be done? Thank you so much for all of your help!

Not really… I mean other than picking another theme if you can’t do the code yourself :/
