Changing ezpages header to an image..

[JennH]

along with the search, currencies, who's online headers, etc.

I have manipulated the code, added images, taken advice from other threads and I just cannot get my images to show up. Any advice would be much appreciated.

Thanks!

I'm guessing you've done the basics, i.e. saved the image to the correct file and then copied it accross from your ftp client...?

If you have can you just post your css for one of those divs.

I did. I saved the file in my images. Is it supposed to go somewhere else? I am clueless. I have edited the ez_pages_definitions.php to include my image, but now instead of an image it just shows "links.png" on my website (which is the image name) instead of the image. I know I'm missing a step somewhere.

Have you added any padding for the image.

If its showing that message instead of the image its usually because of the wrong coding, you don't need to edit that file if i understand what your trying to do correctly.

To put background images onto headings that already exist you need to edit the stylesheet.

#ezPagesHeading {
background-image: url(../images/YOUR_IMAGE_NAME.jpg);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
margin: 0em;
padding: 5px;
}

You could also look at:

#navEZPagesTop

#ezpages

I am wanting my right side box to look just like the left. I am wanting to replace all of the text "important links, search, currencies, etc" with images.

Is there a certain place in the stylesheet where

#ezPagesHeading {
background-image: url(../images/YOUR_IMAGE_NAME.jpg);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
margin: 0em;
padding: 5px;
}

needs to go? I put it in mine and it didn't do anything.

Thank you for all of your help!

I tried to do the "search" text just now and this is what I did:

I changed the sideboxes/search.php to this:

require($template->get_template_dir('tpl_search.php',DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'sideboxes'). '/tpl_search.php');

$title = zen_image($template->get_template_dir(BOX_HEADING_SEARCH, DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'images'). '/' . BOX_HEADING_SEARCH, HEADER_ALT_TEXT);
$title_link = false;
require($template->get_template_dir($column_box_default, DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'common') . '/' . $column_box_default);

and I changed my templates/english.php to this:

// quick_find box text in sideboxes/quick_find.php
define('BOX_HEADING_SEARCH', 'SEARCH.PNG');
define('BOX_SEARCH_ADVANCED_SEARCH', 'Advanced Search');

to include my image that I have saved for the search header.

Now, my search heading is completely gone. Am I just making this too difficult?

You are indeed.

Put the files back to the state they were in. Un-do the hard code changes you made, the images can be done easy enough in the stylesheet. You should'nt be editing any php files.

#ezpagesHeading {
background-image: url(../images/side_box_header.jpg);
}
