Hi all,

This has been knawing at me for a while. I've just never been able to figure out how to have any kind of control over what I can have as my header image. I've been putting off getting this right lately until today. I just received a completed header from a fiverr gig I asigned.

Now I just want to get the freakin thing in there.

I've looked at several threads that explains the process but the thing is that the settings and process that they describe doesn't match up with what I've got.

Am I missing something?

Thanks in advance,

Clinton

    Could you provide a link to your site?

    It could be something to do with the author not adding the theme support for header images.

    The best way to get help would be if you gave the URL,

    If you tell us the name of the theme someone might be able to come up with an idea.

    Ok. My URL is Fitness Aces - Exercise Mindset-Mental Edge of Fitness and the theme it's currently on is the default lifestyle theme.

    Are you looking to have the header stretch across the entire width of the page?

      I hadn't thought of that until you asked that and I took a quick look. Yeah, I definitely would prefer to have stretch across the entire width.

    It appears to me that you have an obsolete version of the Lifestyle Theme, there is likely some compatibility problems with the current version of WordPress.

    Some info is here:

      Thanks for the link but again, its as if they're talking about a totally different program.

      When they say to go to the tools folder and edit themes options .php... I only get 3 options under tools, available tools, import and export.
