PROGRAMMING

Hi guys.

I'm messing around trying to modify a wordpress theme to suit my needs and I am kinda stuck at something.

For the header where the logo should be I have the standard site name and its in a custom style sheet, cus thats how the theme works.

.custom #logo a { color: #ffffff; font-family: "American Typewriter", "Trebuchet MS", Verdana, sans-serif; }

Now, how do I change this so that the site title disappears and I can add my logo?

Thank you

There are two ways to go about this. CSS or modifying your index.php file.
PM me (or post here) your site's url and I will have a look at it.

  So you want to remove the blog name & description text from the header of your blog? Exactly how to do this will vary depending on the theme you use, but these instructions will work for most themes:
  
  If you open the header.php file (in your theme directory), you should see something like this:
  
  Code:
  
  <h1><a href="<?php echo get_option('home'); ?>/"><?php bloginfo('name'); ?></a></h1> <p><?php bloginfo('description'); ?></p>
  
  Delete either the entire piece of code, or just delete the parts you don't want to show.
  
  Thanks

  Ooops, missed that. :p Yeh, could probably put the logo there and just tweak the css if needed to get it to display correctly.

the header code is like this:

<div id="logo">
<a href="<?php bloginfo('url'); ?>" title="<?php bloginfo('name'); ?>"><?php bloginfo('name'); ?></a>
<?php if (is_home()) { ?>
<h1><?php bloginfo('description'); ?></h1>
<?php } else { ?>
<p id="tagline"><?php bloginfo('description'); ?></p>
<?php } ?>
</div>

if I erase this the whole header part dissapears not just that title text but the background also.

Ill try abit more, if I cant get it ill pm one of you
