Changing site name for logo in "Whitespace"..?

Permalink 1 user found helpful
Have the FAQ's and previous posts with regard to changing the site name for a logo.

I have managed to use the dashboard and global scrapbook to replace the My_Site_Name with a logo. But only in the "plain yogurt" theme.

I just can't seem to get it to work with "whitespace". Does this theme support these changes or is it possible to edit the code?

Would be really grateful for some help..

Yeah, I need to update that theme with that code still. For now you can add that code to the header.php file (which is in the theme's elements folder). Look for the div with id of 'headerleft' and replace the code within that div with this:
<a href="<?php echo DIR_REL?>/"><?php 
            $block = Block::getByName('My_Site_Name');  
            if( $block && $block->bID ) $block->display();   
            else echo SITE;
            ?></a><br />

Thanks c5mix/
This is the standard code snippet for:
Content: "My_Site_Name
at the Global Scrapbook and yes it works great and certainly makes your theme near perfect!
We are having problems with *positioning** of our .png logo at My_Site_Name though/
It is overlapping the image block below... Change to another theme and it's in the right position so I have to assume it's related to Whitespace/
Can you help?

in the folder /concrete/themes/ copy not move the folder default to /themes/

i suggest you edit the description.txt slightly so you can tell the difference between the 2, look for the code that c5mix posted above, and then stick some simple html in ( <img> tag with a src)

How did you use the global scrapbook to do this?
