How to hardcode an image into theme, uploaded through dashboard?
Permalink
Hello world!
I am trying to do the following: I wish to hardcode an image into a theme in a way, that would allow the user to change the picture by simply uploading a picture with a specific name. The point is: I want to have an image, which is an image-block, that is automatically added on each page, and has it's image set as a specific file, which the user can easily change through C5. I know that this could be solved simply by css backgrounds and changing files on server through ftp, but I am assuming that the end-user will not have the skills to do such a task, and neither do I want the end user to have to change the header images one-by-one. I also know of a way that this can be achieved through scrapbook items, but I would like to know if this can be done through direct theme coding, because scrapbook items can be accidentally deleted, modified etc... thank you, in advance, for any advice!
