Messed up my header where my logo goes.
Css coding is NOT my forte. Searching for days just to figure out how to change my logo. My extent of web design is wordpress for my blogs. SLOWLY learning and reading a ton.
I have the current version of Zen cart in a subdomain. I have godaddy hosting. I use Filezilla as my FTP. I JUST figured out how to use Crimson editor to edit my css. I just installed zen cart for the 4th time since I broke the site the first time trying to upload the logo (since I didn't know how to use crimson editor), second time couldn't get into the admin section even though password and name was correct, third time there was a problem with the upload of zen cart, and this time everything went better. I saved the database and files almost after every step this time. I followed the directions in my free bentley classic template all the way to dealing with the logo. Here's the directions for it:
Create your logo in your image editing program (did mine in photoshop elements and saved as a png file) and upload it (with Filezilla) to includes/templates/bentley_classic/images.
Open includes/languages/english/bentley_classic/header.php in a plain text editor (I figured out how to do that in Crimson editor). Find this code on or around line 24:
define('HEADER_ALT_TEXT', 'Bentley Classic :: Free Template by www.picaflor-azul.com');
define('HEADER_LOGO_WIDTH', '235px');
define('HEADER_LOGO_HEIGHT', '60px');
define('HEADER_LOGO_IMAGE', 'logo.png');
Replace "Bentley Classic :: Free Template by www.picaflor-azul.com" with your site name and tag line here
Replace "235px" with your logo width
Replace "60px" with your logo height
Replace "logo.png" with the name of your logo image
define('HEADER_ALT_TEXT', 'Your store name :: your store tag line'); (I put Natural Family Living, LLC. ::Welcome)
define('HEADER_LOGO_WIDTH', 'height in px'); (500)
define('HEADER_LOGO_HEIGHT', 'width in px'); (whatever the height was)
define('HEADER_LOGO_IMAGE', 'your logo name .png'); (NFLlogo7.png)
I changed the coding and saved in Crimson editor. Then I went to my FTP and uploaded the file to my site. Then I went and checked my site and noticed there was nothing there. I went back to crimson and there was zip zero zilch coding at all for the header.php.
Here is my website http://shop.anointingthefamily.com/ you can see the top part with no logo and messed up links.
Do I need to go find the backup of just before the logo upload? Or can I just use crimson to add back the right coding and figure out how to deal with my logo. I did re-size and upload to my site via my FTP manager my new logo. Now it is 2??*8? in my images folder like above. I need step by step directions since it is taking FOREVER to learn this and I have VERY limited time to work on this. I have a sales ready date for July 1st. I haven't done much to get everything ready-not adding products and paypal and some of the most important until I get the basic outline for my site. I will save after each big intergration.
Please advise. Thank you.
Also where do I find the image sizes for the slider pictures so I can create my slider images?
