Posted March 22, 20169 yr I am just using the above image as an example...... This is something that is automatic (I think) on all sites and obviously varies for every site out there. My question is where do I go to modify the actual embedded url to what I want it to point to? Thanks

March 22, 20169 yr Author Thanks Steve00. I found the code but not sure what to change at this point but I suspect it is this line (<a href='{setting="base_url"}' id='elSiteTitle' accesskey='1' class='logo textLogo'><span class='position'>) and specifically the base_url. {{if \IPS\Theme::i()->logo['front']['url'] !== null }} {{$logo = \IPS\File::get( 'core_Theme', \IPS\Theme::i()->logo['front']['url'] )->url;}} {{if theme.ipbf_mobileTextLogo}} <a href='{setting="base_url"}' id='elLogo' accesskey='1' class='logo justImage ipsResponsive_showDesktop'><span class='position'><img src="{$logo}" alt='{setting="board_name" escape="true"}'></span></a> <a href='{setting="base_url"}' id='elSiteTitle' accesskey='1' class='logo textLogo ipsResponsive_hideDesktop ipsResponsive_block'><span class='position'>{{if theme.ipbf_logoName}}{theme="ipbf_logoName"}{{else}}{setting="board_name"}{{endif}}</span></a> {{else}} <a href='{setting="base_url"}' id='elLogo' accesskey='1' class='logo justImage'><span class='position'><img src="{$logo}" alt='{setting="board_name" escape="true"}'></span></a> {{endif}} {{else}} <a href='{setting="base_url"}' id='elSiteTitle' accesskey='1' class='logo textLogo'><span class='position'> {{if theme.ipbf_miniLogo}}<img src='{theme="ipbf_textLogoImage"}' alt='' />{{endif}} {{if theme.ipbf_logoSlogan}}<span class='textWithImage'>{{endif}} {{if theme.ipbf_logoName}}{theme="ipbf_logoName"}{{else}}{setting="board_name"}{{endif}} {{if theme.ipbf_logoSlogan}}<span class='logoSlogan'>{theme="ipbf_logoSlogan"}</span></span>{{endif}} </span></a> {{endif}} What do I do at this point? Do I simply add the url that I want to use and where?

March 22, 20169 yr Author I replaced "base_url" with the url that I wanted to use (http://mappersunited.com/index.php?/forums/) and when I hit save a message came up stating that the file could not be saved. Actually it crashed the site until I restored it back to the original.
March 22, 20169 yr Well, that's to be expected if you did just change "base_url" You need to change this: {setting="base_url"} to this: http://mappersunited.com/index.php?/forums/
March 22, 20169 yr Have you tried to use {setting=http://yourdomain}? AFAIK the system shouldn't allow you to save this.

BUT if you change "base_url", it saves and you end up with this: Can't reproduce the side effect mentioned above (borked site) though. To clarify: Change {setting="base_url"} to {setting="http://whatever"} = no save. Change {setting="base_url"} to {setting=http://whatever} = save.
May 11, 20169 yr I've changed the {setting="base_url"} to the url of the logo I want to display. (I have someone who creates them for our site). When someone clicks the logo now to return to the main index, it will cause a 404 error. It's appending the URL of the logo to the end of the the forum's URL. Is there a way to still click the logo to return to the index and also have the URL pointing to the location of the logo?
