rename "Home" in Wasteland theme

[ericisrael42]

Does that have to be uploaded through the theme file and in the images folder or do I upload a image through the media tab and then copy that link and add it in the header.php file?

No, not the media tab...that is only for images in your site's content. Any images pertaining to the theme need to be uploaded to the images directory either through the cpanel or ftp.

And it doesn't go into the header.php, the code for the header image is in style.css as seen in the code below:

  Code:

.header { background: #ebe1c8 url(images/header.jpg) no-repeat; width: 990px; height: 140px; margin: 0 auto 10px auto; padding: 0; float: left; border-bottom: #3f3013 3px double; }

Just edit this code to put the filename of the image you're using (currently header.jpg).

any chance you can tell me how to upload through cpanel or ftp? I don't know that. I know a lot of other stuff but not that:(

[ericisrael42]

I host my blogs with godaddy. Do you mean go to my account with them and upload an image through the FTP there? The way I have been doing it is put the image I want (through photoshop) onto the header image then save it to the desktop then upload to the theme file then upload the theme to wordpress. Seems there should be a much easier way?

[ericisrael42]

Mina, I think I have it. I went to my file manager in godaddy and pend the theme in question and I see the header.jpg there and I am pretty sure this is where I can change it. Thanks for your help. You are the best.

Sounds like you got it!

Do you do paid work on other themes besides your own? I have a problem with our company generated custom theme and the guy who made it is telling me he cannot fix the problem we have? Just incase you do, the problem we have is that after we import his theme, add a post or page and include a photo in the post or page, the photo ends up on the left side above the text after we "publish" or "preview" and we want everything on the right. In the "editor" mode, we can move the picture around just fine to where we want it but as soon as we hit "preview" or "publish" the photo ends back at the left side under any text. The only way we know to solve this is to put in table cells and manually put the picture to the right side in a cell. We think this is too inconvenient. We think he has a code issue that just needs to be fixed and he says he doesn't deal in 3rd party installations (we are self hosting now).We don't know enough about CSS to repair this. Personally, I think it is a easy fix for someone:-)

Thanks in advance.

I'll be honest with you, I'm really not comfortable fooling with other people's themes especially when it's a paid deal. Sorry.

Hello Mina and Happy Summer. Can you please tell me the code you use and where it is that puts a black frame around every photo I upload to the Wasteland theme? I'd like to add that code to a different theme. Is this possible?

[Mina]

HI!

I think what you're looking for is this:

  Code:

a img { border: #544b40 1px solid; padding: 3px; background: none; }

and the part for the border around the pictures is border: #544b40 1px solid;.
