Changing the header image

Post by WeZona »

Is it possible to change the header image? I know Wordpress has a feature that allows it, (http://codex.wordpress.org/Designing_Headers) but I couldn't find it in s9y. Is it dependent on the theme or maybe another feature? I'm new to serendipity, and I haven't played around the the settings much. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.[/url]

The header image is dependent on the theme. If you've got FTP or file access to your Serendipity, just check out the templates/ directory. The header image is usually in index.tpl.

There's also a Serendipity plugin to change or even randomize the header image. Install the SPARTACUS event plugin, then look for Template Header/Logo Image user event plugins.

Let us know if you need anything else!

On top of what judebert said, you can also change your header image via your style.css file with a background-image attribute.

And if you are using the kubrick/joshua theme, you can use the plugin "Kubrick header selector" which allows you to enter a different image for kubrick themes in the plugin.
