having trouble trying to add a logo

[snarfy]

I give up can any body help me, I’ve been trying to change the look of my store I added a few item that I’ll be selling just so I’d get the feel of how it all works which was really easy,

I also managed to change the width of the page,

The bit I’m having trouble with – I’ve been trying to add a logo at the top of my page but to no avail, I followed all the steps and I’ve created all the necessary changes and added all the custom folders that I need but the problem is I’ve messed about with them so much that I now think I’ve done more harm than good, is there somebody willing to have a little look at the files and file structure to see what I’ve done so far,

Also I’ve written scrapbookingmad test in one of the files just to see if I was getting it in the right place at the top of the page but now I cant seam to find were I done this, and it’s still showing on the home page, but this is not what I want, I want my logo here

The logo I want to use at the top of each page has been uploaded but I just can seam to see it, but some how I’ve added it to the admin panel at the top, very strange I don’t know what I’ve done there, I don’t mind it there but I’d like to centre it if possible,

Looks like you're using the Classic Template, so go to Includes/Languages/Classic/header.php. That's where you define your logo image AND your tagline (scrapbookingmad test):

// added defines for header alt and text
define('HEADER_ALT_TEXT', 'Powered by Zen Cart :: The Art of E-Commerce [home link]');
define('HEADER_SALES_TEXT', '<h1>Sales Message Goes Here</h1>');
define('HEADER_LOGO_WIDTH', '200px');
define('HEADER_LOGO_HEIGHT', '70px');
define('HEADER_LOGO_IMAGE', 'logo.gif');

Hope this helps.

I opened, Includes/Languages/Classic/

But the only thing that’s in there is a text document,

Includes/Languages/Classic/empty.txt

What shall I do next?

[snarfy]

I’ve just looked at the original Zen cart that I downloaded and it’s the same, the header.php isn’t there but there is the empty.txt document, so I’m guessing that I haven’t done any thing wrong?

Can I just upload the header.php file from Includes/Languages/english/ from the original? Zen cart on my computer to Includes/Languages/Classic

Or will this be messing things up,

You can, but you don't need to unless you're changing its contents.
If you're going to alter it, then yes, make a copy of the original version of the file, and place it in your own custom template override folder ... as described in the FAQs:

I’m now a little confused I’ve been reading about this for two days and still cant find the answer,

You said
“You can, but you don't need to unless you're changing its contents”

well this is my point the file that I need to change isn’t there all thats there is an empty text file empty.txt
is this right

Since you've decided to use the "classic" folder as your template, then yes, you'll have to copy the indicated file into the 'classic' folder, and make your changes there.

My point was ... the file would only be in the 'classic' folder if you were using 'classic' as your template and if you'd made changes to the file. Otherwise the original master file is used (ie: the one in the /includes/languages/english folder) ... as outlined in the FAQs.

So ... yes ... make a copy of the /includes/languages/english/header.php file and save it to /includes/languages/english/classic/header.php ... and make your changes there.
