 * Hi [@roelof](https://wordpress.org/support/users/roelof/)
 * I hope you are doing well today.
 * In the first place, you can use this plugin [https://pl.wordpress.org/plugins/svg-support/](https://pl.wordpress.org/plugins/svg-support/),
   which will help to support SVG images in the media library. But that is only 
   a half-solved problem. The real question is, where will you replace that logo?
 * Will it be:
    - theme settings (check if that supports to upload svg images)
    - page builder -> header (as above, check if that will allow to attach svg image)
    - custom theme (most of themes CSS will support jpg/png images, and size can
      be adjusted; in another scenario, you would need to add custom CSS to support
      the size of that SVG file)
 * Kind Regards,
   Kris

 * I was thinking on the site editor of gutenberg in the template parts.
   So if I
   understand this : `**Basic Usage**:– First, install and activate SVG Support 
   via your WordPress dashboard– Upload SVG files to your media library like any
   other image– Works seamlessly with Image blocks, Cover blocks and featured images`
   <br><br>it should not be a problem <code><br><br></code></p>

 * Hi [@roelof](https://wordpress.org/support/users/roelof/),
 * I am a bit confused about what you are actually trying to achieve. Can you please
   confirm if you need the logo to show up in grayscale?
 * I believe you added the SVG using an image block. The Gutenberg page builder 
   comes with an out-of-the-box solution to apply a duotone filter on images, which
   should help with this.
 * I hope the following documentation helps you further: [https://learn.wordpress.org/lesson-plan/use-duotone-filters-to-change-color-effects/](https://learn.wordpress.org/lesson-plan/use-duotone-filters-to-change-color-effects/)

 * Hello [@roelof](https://wordpress.org/support/users/roelof/),
 * I hope things are going well for you.
 * > The logo must be in color and if im looking at the orginal site that is done

 * I’ve reviewed the original site, and the SVG logo was written in an HTML page,
   meaning there are no external SVGs linked.
 * > But I will look at the page if it can help me
 * This is still unclear. If you have the original site access, you can review the
   SVG written in the HTML page and make changes accordingly to that.
 * Please let us know if you require any additional information.

 * Thanks,
 * I copied the svg out of the source so now I have a external svg.
   Still I think
   I need to use css to make the colors.Pity I cannot include the file into this
   forum so you can take a look what to change to make things easier.

 * Hello [@roelof](https://wordpress.org/support/users/roelof/),
 * Not sure, but if you try anything, an SVG editor website where you can easily
   add colour like here is one example: [https://www.svgviewer.dev/](https://www.svgviewer.dev/)
 * Please give it a try if you haven’t yet.
