logo issues

[jayrolo_2008]

I'm not sure if this belongs here, but how do i upload my logo to the server? I've created a folder for it, but needless to say there is nothing in there because I don't know how to put anything in there.

The folder to which you upload your logo image will depend on which TEMPLATE you are using.

In a Standard Zencart Install, the template will be "classic".

The default image name is logo.gif , and if you want to change this to a jpeg, you will need to edit the following line in:-

includes/languages/english/classic/header.php

Line #24 : define('HEADER_LOGO_IMAGE', 'logo.gif');
to
Line #24 : define('HEADER_LOGO_IMAGE', '????????.jpg');
where
????????.jpg is the name of your logo image.

Then, when you have edited and saved this file in its location on your server, you UPLOAD your image (??????????.jpg) to:-

includes\templates\classic\images\


(If you are using another template, you will substitute your template's name for "classic" in the above.)

Because my logo is a jpg .... this is what I did ...

/ added defines for header alt and text
define('HEADER_ALT_TEXT', 'Powered by Zen Cart :: The Art of E-Commerce ::
define('HEADER_SALES_TEXT', 'TagLine Here');
define('HEADER_LOGO_WIDTH', '192px');
define('HEADER_LOGO_HEIGHT', '64px');
define('HEADER_LOGO_IMAGE', 'logo.jpg');

I also removed the bit after the art of e-commerce which referred to Mutual Advantage - but when I refreshed the site, the wording is still there.

I also loaded the logo to my images file of my template.

Have I got myself confused, cause nothing seemed to have happened. Boo Hoo - really wanted to impress my teacher !

You might have edited the wrong page.
Easiest thing to do is do a site wide search for logo.gif and change each instance until you find the right one.

Of course BACK-UP EVERYTHING before you make changes.

How would I do a wide search ?
