Hyperlinking custom header image…
-
I am using a custom header image with the default WordPress text turned off. In which templates would I have to add a link code and around what in the templates so that it is easier for visitors to navigate back to the homepage from a comment or archive page. Thank you.
-
just put this in your header.php
<a href="/index"><img src="headerimg" border="0"></a>
thanks…..any special place it needs to go or just anywhere in that template?
just where it is now
doesnt seem to be working wherever i put it.
This is the current template header.php

get cropped off of the image. */

</head>
<body>
<div id="page"><div id="header">
<div id="headerimg">
<h1>/"><?php bloginfo('name'); ?></h1>
<div class="description"><?php bloginfo('description'); ?></div>
</div>
</div>
<hr />anybody able to fill me in on exactly where in that code I need to insert the other code. Thanks for any help.
I got it to work on mine by inserting this:
<div id=”header” onclick=”location.href=’http://mydogischelsea.com/’;” style=”cursor: pointer;”></div>
You’d have to change mydogischelsea.com to gamerbabble.com. Since I don’t know much about this code stuff, I don’t know if it makes a difference where you put it, but I put it after this section and it worked fine:
<div id=”header”>
<div id=”headerimg”>
<h1>/”><?php bloginfo(‘name’); ?></h1>
<div class=”description”><?php bloginfo(‘description’); ?></div>
</div>which is at the bottom of header.php. Hope that helps!
thank you so much….worked perfectly….
Hey,
Better late than never. I discovered where the problem is. Instead of changing so much, as other posts tell you, you only have to go to the Theme Options>Advanced and where it says “Use these arguments for the blog categories menu” delete the directory reference “wordpress”. It should work!
