Bill in CA Posted April 13, 2022 Share Posted April 13, 2022 I'm sure this will seem silly to more experienced users, but how do I set an image as the board's cover photo, and are there any recommended best practices as to image size? Thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randy Calvert Posted April 13, 2022 Share Posted April 13, 2022 Where specifically are you referring to? Are you meaning the board's logo image? (I just want to make sure I understand what you're trying to actually accomplish before making suggestions on something you may not be interested in.)

Marc Stridgen Posted April 14, 2022 Share Posted April 14, 2022 You can change the logo on your site from your theme in Customization>Themes, by clicking the edit icon. There is no 'cover photo' as such if you mean a background for the header section on the whole site. Thats something you would need to theme in if you wished to add one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there a guide online as to how that's done, even if just how to add the photo? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark H Posted April 15, 2022 Share Posted April 15, 2022 While there's no guide specifically to add a background image, we do have a number of guides for Themes overall. That can be found starting here: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill in CA Posted April 16, 2022 Author Share Posted April 16, 2022 Thanks. I had tried finding it there and will go back and dig deeper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morrigan Posted April 16, 2022 Share Posted April 16, 2022 It will depend on your theme but I believe you are talking about the header behind the logo and the user bar: #ipsLayout_header header That will be the element you need to edit. You would add a background and a height. And then setup a responsive thing to not have it there for smaller devices.

Marc Stridgen Posted April 18, 2022 Share Posted April 18, 2022 I think the main think you need to be aware of here Bill is that its something you will need to add into your theme (code in) rather than something that is simply a setting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
