Linked Image in Tagline

Hi Bill,

Is it possible to have a linked image in the tagline area of the header?

Thanks for your help.

Steve,

You can do that. Here’s how:

1. Go to the Media section and select “Add New.” Upload the image you’d like to use in the header. Once the upload is finished, click edit. Look in the right hand side and you’ll see a spot labeled “file URL.” Copy the URL to your file.
2. Then to the Appearance section and select Edit.
3. From the list of files on your right, choose header.php and look for this spot:

   
   <?php
   	if (is_home()) {
   		echo '<h2>'.get_bloginfo('description').'</h2>';
   	} else {
   		echo '<p>'.get_bloginfo('description').'</p>';
   	}
   ?>
   

   and replace that with this:

4. Change the http://yourlink.com to the URL you’d like to link to and the http://yoursite.com/image.jpg to the URL to your image file.
5. Save your changes.

That should place your image in the header.

If you have any trouble, let me know,
Bil
