    Default How do I change the Logo to my own?

    I'm using Zen Cart 1.3.8a.1

    How do you change the Zen cart header logo?

    I followed these instructions precisely and nothing has changed!!!

    https://www.zen-cart.com/tutorials/i...hp?article=125

    I honestly do not know what I am doing wrong. I uploaded a new logo, different size and same file name. And then changed the width and height etc in my header file and then uploaded that.

    I refreshed the page to my store and nothing! No change whatsoever.

    I thought this would be easy to do but its proving a nightmare.

    Need help.

    According to the HTML source of your zc installation, you are still using the CLASSIC template.

    Have you set up your CUSTOM template yet?

    Nope. How do you do that?

    When you install zencart for the first time, it uses the CLASSIC template as the "default".

    While many people retain this CLASSIC template and make all their customizations within that template, it is not a good idea to do so, for a variety of reasons - mainly because of the usefulness of CLASSIC as being a diagnostic environment when you start to (later on) make some heavy changes to your site.

    So, zencart has a clever "over-rides" system, which allows users to make these additions and alterations WITHOUT changing what are knows as the CORE CODE files.

    Setting up your CUSTOM template is one of the first things you should do, and the process is actually quite straight-forward.

    If you look in your zencart installation on your server, open the includes folder...

    Then, inside includes, you will see:

    languages
    modules
    templates


    Opening each of these in turn, (and going ever-deeper into the folders), you will see (in a lot of places), a folder called classic .

    These classic folders are the locations for the php code that operate the classic template set-up.

    What may surprise you however, is that while these classic folders exist in many places, a LOT of them contain NO FILES!
