In reply to: Adding a logo image to header?Thanks Mika
Trying to get rid of me eh?…
Yeah, feel free to move this if you think I’ll get a helpful response there – just thought, you know, multisite.. must be a common problem that has been solved already.
Maybe I’m at the cutting edge of wp multisite, wanting users to add their own logos & such nonsense 🙂
Just to say again – I’m OK for background & header changes. Just need a method for users to input their own foreground logo image.

In reply to: Adding a logo image to header?Hmmm…. edit my themes to do what twentyeleven does… OK, I’ll just do that then, no problem 🙂
Except the documentation on that is so sketchy (and over my head) at the moment.
Seriously, I already have the background & header image sorted. I’m 99% there. It’s only the extra “logo” bit that’s sticking me.
I even tried adding a nextgen gallery just to hold a single image! Yes, it worked, but the refresh on every page load spoils the experience.
So I’d like to re-state my question:
I have a logo div placeholder. How can I create a simple input field or some other method to allow users to fill in the src address for their own image???Cheers

In reply to: Help needed to create new user roleUpdate – Thankyou so much keesiemeijer –
I didn’t realise that the members plugin allowed me to edit the standard admin role. I just removed the bits I didn’t want members to access and voila – a user profile that works with my themes 🙂
This really is a major breakthrough for me – now they can:
Edit my default pages but not create new ones
Create & edit their own posts
Change their site background, header & logoExactly what I was after!
THANK YOUPS tried to mark this topic as resolved, but something has gone wrong!

In reply to: Help needed to create new user roleThanks again – I tried the alternative members plugin, but accessing the theme options is still an issue for anyone except the admin. I think there must be something in the theme code that filters priviliges based on the admin role, but no idea where to start looking.
If the theme developer can’t help me, I’ll have to explore other options. Maybe base all the templates on twentyeleven, although I’ve no experience playing or editing with that.
I did find plugins to deal with the background image & header image. It’s just letting site owners add a logo that I’m really stuck with.
This must be a very basic requirement for anyone setting up a new multisite? Let members create their own background / header image & logo image??

In reply to: Help needed to create new user roleThanks Keesiemeijer
I’m using “user role editor” plugin & I’ve already ticked the boxes on the editor role for edit theme & switch theme.
But it seems that still only admins can get to the theme options. I understand that it may have more to do with my theme than wordpress, as the default twentyeleven theme is available to edit with my current editor role settings.
As a bit of background info – I use a couple of wysiwyg progs to build my themes – Artisteer & an add-on called templateer. I use these because I don’t know how to code themes from scratch, and because the templateer add-on makes it easy to add a logo & change the background etc. But it only seems to work for admins 🙁
I’ve asked the developer of templateer for help, but was wondering if there was an approved way to “mess with” the standard admin capabilities so I could take out things like create a new page, but leave access to theme settings??
Another option I’m exploring is using plugins to deal with site backgrounds and header images. Not sure about adding a logo though?…

In reply to: Adding new toolbar item / path to page?Sounds encouraging – thanks 🙂
Forum: Networking WordPress
In reply to: Anbody using "if ( current_user_can( 'editor' )) {"???I’m adding it to the functions page of my new template theme functions.php
(near the top if that makes any difference?)The default role for subsites will be editor, but there’s a few things I want to hide to keep things as simple as possible for them.
I am already using the role editor, but it only goes so far…

In reply to: Adding new toolbar item / path to page?Sorry Mika – just left the original code I found on the web.
I’m trying to create a template site for new subsites. I want to include a special welcome page with help and advice. What I’m trying to do is edit the top toolbar which will take them to a help page which I will have added to their own site (hidden from main menu).
It would be easy if I just link them back to a page on my homesite, but I was trying to avoid them leaving their own subsite if they don’t have to?
Cheers
