 * I’m setting up my site for linuxiseasy.com
    I’ve added an image for the header
   but it doesn’t show up. It shows in the edit area but after I select the image
   it doesn’t change. How do I correct this problem?
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fheader-background-doesnt-show-up%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)

 * How are you setting a header image?

 * With the theme customizer in the dashboard. I added the image for the header 
   and it won’t show up. Do I need to remove the text and then it will show?

 * Nothing works. I can’t even change the color of the header! I’ve used WordPress
   before and haven’t had these problems!

 * I recommend asking at [https://wordpress.org/support/theme/basepress#new-post](https://wordpress.org/support/theme/basepress#new-post)
   so the plugin’s / theme’s developers and support community can help you with 
   this.
