    Default Changing Logo?

    Hi Guys

    something odd is happening. I'm new to ZenCart. I've installed the latest version and installed a theme called PureGreenFree. I want to change the logo. So I followed this tutorial, to the letter. But the logo remains the same (logo.gif). I've double checked and double checked. Is the logo defined somewhere else other than header.php?

    I'm developing this local on WAMP, so I can't link to the site.

    Any help?

    Your logo.gif should be located in your_template/images folder

    Thanks. I had actually defined a different file name (not logo.gif). But changing the filename to logo.gif has worked. There must be another file that defines logo.gif?

    Ok I found the problem

    I edited includes/languages/ENGLISH/header.php as instructed by the tutorial above. Nothing happened. So I changed the image file name to logo.gif and it worked. But when I changed the define('HEADER_ALT_TEXT', definition, nothing happened. So I searched for more header.php files and found one in includes\languages\english\pure_green_free So I edited that and it worked! So for some reason, either the tutorial is wrong or something screwy is going on with my install?

    Also I have an issue with IE. The new logo works fine in FF:



    But in IE it gets hidden by the navbar?



    Any ideas?

    Read that tutorial again. It says:

    CAPITALIZED words refer to a folder or language that you choose. We use CUSTOM for your template and ENGLISH for your language by default. These generic terms should be changed to the name of the template/language you are using.
    and
    save the file to includes/languages/ENGLISH/CUSTOM/header.php and upload it to your server.
    So, you SHOULDN'T be making any changes to includes/languages/ENGLISH/header.php. You must make the changes in includes/languages/ENGLISH/pure_green_free/header.php.

    pure_green_free is what the tutorial means by CUSTOM.

    Can't know for sure without a link, but make sure the height of #logoWrapper is at least the height of your header image.
