Site Title display in header: how do I stop it?

Permalink 1 user found helpful
How does one suppress the display of the site title in the header on a Concrete5 web site? I have experimented with positioning the title using CSS. Now I have decided that I want to eliminate the title (#logo) from being displayed so that I may use a custom font embedded in the header graphic image.
This also allows me to place the site title exactly where I want it.

Thanks in advance for your help and suggestions.

Well, it depends what theme you're using, but I'd recommend looking at mytheme/elements/header.php You may see something in there like this:
<h1 id="logo"><!--
         --><a href="<?php echo DIR_REL?>/"><?php 
            $block = Block::getByName('My_Site_Name');  
            if( $block && $block->bID ) $block->display();   
            else echo SITE;
         ?></a><!--
      --></h1>

If so, what that is doing is looking for a block called 'My_Site_Name' in the global scrapbook and displaying it if it's found, otherwise just taking the text of your site name (as defined in Dashboard > Sitewide Settings) and displaying it in an <h1> element. You could try just editing the block in the global scrapbook, putting your image in there and leaving the template code as is.

Thanks agedman!

Your suggestion worked perfectly! I was able to substitute the image file for the title text by editing the scrapbook.
