 * Hi, Could anyone please advise how I go about editing a header image? The image
   in question is positioned in the far top-right hand area but when I try to access
   the image via ‘Appearance/Header Media’ it seems only the image in the opposite
   top-left area can be edited! Is there a method where I can access the required
   image? The image I need to replace is a purple poppy with the text ‘purple poppy
   appeal’ immediately underneath it.
 * Any help appreciated! Thanks.
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fedit-header-image%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

    While inspecting
   the site, it seems the image and other elements in the header are generated by
   modifying the Zakra’s code. So, it is hard for me to guide you on this without
   seeing the changed code. Please check the code yourself and try to find what 
   is generating the image. Finally, it is not recommended to change the theme’s
   code directly for various reasons. Please use child theme to do so. Thank you.

 * Thanks so much for your reply. If it’s a code issue then I’ll be passing this
   one on to someone more qualified than myself to look at it! It hadn’t occurred.
   to me that it may be a code thing so I’ll personally leave it well alone! Thanks
   again.
