    Hello,

    I have just taken over a WordPress site and have no previous experience with it. I need to modify the subnav on the site, and although I have successfully done it modifying the stylesheet and the header.php file, I have not been able to figure out where to access the theme images in order to update these. So, the subnav is using a background image [background: url(images/bg-subNav.png)], but I can’t find a folder on the admin with the images for the theme. I have searched the web with this question without any success … can someone help :/ Thank you!

    Hi Aarmida,

    There should be an image folder in the same level with the stylesheet and header.php files.

    The url suggests the image is in this folder wp-content/themes/images

    I don’t think though, that you have access to that through the dashboard, you would need to use FTP.

    Thanks for the info! I haven’t been able to access the site through FTP. I have just tried using the FTP service I normally use for all my other non-WordPress sites (Espresso). Do I need to add some type of permission or access from the site for FTP? I am kind of lost with this 😐

    You need to ask your hosting company about FTP issues.

    Alternatively, upload the image to the media library and modify the CSS to use that URL.
