Make the tagline message in header an image?

[liquidSpin]

Hey all. I did a search and found someone had the same issue of trying to turn the tagline message in the header into an image.

The answer he found was:

define ('HEADER_SALES_TEXT', zen_image(DIR_WS_TEMPLATE_IMAGES . 'taglineimage.gif', 'Alternate Tagline text'));

This should make the tagline an image drawn from
/includes/templates/your_template/images/taglineimage.gif.

Ok my question is where and how do I add this?

I have the tpl.header.php opened but not sure where to place this into the php exactly.

Can anyone here help me out?

Hey Misty,

thanks but it still doesn't help me as I don't know where or how to place the code. Forgive me but I am new to PHP. Sorry to sound dumb.

I see you didn't quite read my first post fully and I'm not sure you get what I'm asking. I know which file to edit. I just don't know how exactly to place that code in.

I applied the code into the document where I wanted the image to appear. I replaced the code that calls up the "text message" however nothing appears. The path to the image is correct however I believe I'm not putting the code in the right place neither am I doing it properly since I don't have any knowledge with PHP.

I really do appreciate you helping me out but at least read my post in order to understand my problem.

This is how I placed the code. Which I know is wrong but would love to know how to properly place this code inside the php file.

   <div id="taglineWrapper">
<?php
              if (HEADER_SALES_TEXT != '') {
?>

 <?php define('HEADER_SALES_TEXT', 'Your Tagline <img src="../images/world.png">'); ?>

<?php

Yes I did read your post and yes I did quote you an url
that gave an example as to integrate into tpl_header.php.
Did you visit that url and read ALL the posts.

Misty:

Yes, I did read the post...and the post was short. It didn't give me an example of where to place it. Go back and look at the post you recommended.

In my first post I said I had already found a post with the code needed to change the text header into an image. However I just didn't know where and how to put it. I was hoping to get an example.

Is there someone here that can point me in the right direction please?

define statements generally go in language files, not template files. Search in Tools > Developers Toolkit for 'HEADER_SALES_TEXT' and you will see the file where it is defined. You want to edit that file, not add another definition in a different file.
