In reply to: Header Image for GrimeldaAfter a couple weeks of trying, I finally got it to work…sort of.
In the header template, This is what my header section says:
<div id=”header”>
<img border=”0″ src=”http://www.dailytraveldeal.com/wp-content/themes/grimelda/images/traveldealheader.png”>
</div>I couldn’t get it to turn into a link without making the page all screwed up, but I added a “home” link to the top of the sidebar to compensate.
Thanks for everyone who took the time to assist, especially miklb…

In reply to: Header Image for GrimeldaI’m embarrassed to say it still isn’t working. I had to again reset it back the original code because the page was so messed up after making those changes.
I’m sorry to be such a pain with this. It’s frustrating and I appreciate your trying to help me out.

In reply to: Header Image for GrimeldaMiklb – can you show me the code for those sections…I tried it as I know how, and it’s still not showing…
Lorelle thanks…that article is helpful, but the problem remains. Thanks to everyone for the input thus far.

In reply to: Header Image for GrimeldaI did set things back to the original way, just because it was butt ugly.
The file is at: http://dailytraveldeal.com/wp-content/themes/grimelda/images/header.jpg
I’m not sure about the negative margins and the two height listings…this is how the theme came…

In reply to: Header Image for GrimeldaHere’s what my stylesheet looks like now:
#header {
margin: -2.4em 0 0 -1.5em;
padding: 0;
width: 740px;
background: url(‘header.jpg’) no repeat top;
text-align: center;
border-bottom: 7px solid #7f0000;
}#header a {
display: block;
width: 100%;
padding: 2em 0;
margin: 0;
background-color: #e5f7ff;
}#header a:hover {
background-color: #dbf4ff;Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: Header Image for GrimeldaI recreated the banner to be 740×126
I put it into the Grimelda images folder.
I changed the background to read:
background: url(‘header.jpg’) no repeat top;
I tried an absolute path.
Now if you look at the page, the tagline is pushed down into the body of the blog and still no banner.
I’m not sure why there was both a % and a PX reference. Doesn’t make any sense.

In reply to: Header Image for GrimeldaThe image does show up at times…it’s just *where* and *how* it shows up that has me baffled.

In reply to: Header Image for GrimeldaI did try that. More of the same. Sorry about this. I actually do know a little about this stuff, it’s just that this one has me baffled.

In reply to: Header Image for GrimeldaIt just doesn’t work. I’ve put that code into each of the header statements and at various times I get four images of the logo “blocked” across the header (I know: the “block” tag but changing that didn’t help) and another time it appeared in the tagline section…even though I didn’t put it there.
I appreciate your patience.

In reply to: Header Image for GrimeldaIt’s not so much about making it clickable as it is about getting the image to show in the first place. As I mentioned, I’ve been through many threads on these forums and tried a number of things, but something isn’t clicking.
In the Style.css there are these sections:
#header {
margin: -2.4em 0 0 -1.5em;
padding: 0;
width: 105.7%;
width: 740px;
background-color: #ffe090;
text-align: center;
border-bottom: 7px solid #7f0000;
}#header a {
display: block;
width: 100%;
padding: 2em 0;
margin: 0;
background-color: #e5f7ff;
}#header a:hover {
background-color: #dbf4ff;
}The header.css has this:
<div id=”header”><h1>” title=”<?php bloginfo(‘name’); ?>”><?php bloginfo(‘name’); ?></h1>
<div id=”tagline”><?php bloginfo(‘description’); ?></div>
</div>I’m just looking for where to insert the image.
Thanks.
