    Default Header Help!!

    I need help desperately. I am trying to change my header image but not having much success. I have uploaded the new header to includes/templates/classic/images/digiheader.jpg

    I have then gone to includes/templates/classic/css/stylesheet.css and changed it to

    #logoWrapper{
    background-image: url(../images/digiheader.jpg);
    background-repeat: no-repeat;
    background-color: #ffffff;
    width: 760px;
    height:127px;
    }


    Please could you tell me what I am doing wrong. I have been trying to change this for a couple of days now.

    My cart is here http://www.digi-scrap.net/shop

    First of all, you should NOT be changing ANYTHING in the /classic or /template_default folders. Please read the tutorials about creating a custom template. If you persist in modifying those files, all your changes will be lost with the next upgrade/update.

    To change the logo, you should modify includes/languages/english/YOUR_TEMPLATE/header.php (where YOUR_TEMPLATE is the name of your custom template. The change you made to the stylesheet changed the background image, not the header.

    Okay I am a little confused. Do I have to make another template? When I had my previous store all I did was change various things in my classic folder and everything turned out great. Never had any problems. And according to the FAQ tutorials classic is a sample custom template

    Currently all I have under my templates folder is classic and templates default.

    Read the tutorials! Where does it say to change the content of the classic folder? All your changes will be LOST with the next upgrade/update. Good luck with that.

    You can copy files from the classic folder for your custom template, but you should always save the modified file to a different folder using your custom template's name.
