CC2 header image (banner) not showing up

    I just updated to CC2 after using CC1 for a few years. The update went ok except for a couple important things.

    I have a static page as my home page and once selected, the header image will not show up. In addition, if I switch the home page from static to the blog roll (posts), the header shows up. Absolutely strange.

    Another problem too is that I am unable to specify a content background color. In my previous CC1 site, I had a background image for the main site and for all the content areas, I could easily specify a color so the text obviously isn’t conflicting with the background. As there are no options to this from my knowledge in the CC2 settings page, I can assume this feature was removed.

    Any idea on how these issues can be fixed?

    Thanks in advance!

  • same problem with the header image here! Still looking for a solution.

    Don’t know the old version, as I just started using the theme, but it seems that there is no width defined for the content area, resulting that background image/color for the content area is extended to the width of the browser. I fixed it adding the following css:

    div.main-content {
	width: 1170px;
	margin-left: auto;
	margin-right: auto;
	background-color: #fbfbfb;
}

    Yeah, I could determine that being a problem when I switch from a static page to a post roll as my “home” page. Something funky is going on with it.

    Been a CC1 user for 2.5 years now. Shame that something so basic is broken…

    if there will be no answer by tomorrow i guess i will have to work on the page.php myself to get it fixed – though it wasn’t intended to work with a child theme *sigh* ??
    but client is waiting…

    Doing some analysis myself, I determined that in the index page, the header information for the banner was never inserted. There is physically no generated code there. There is a comment that says it should be inserted there. Guess the problem lies there, aka in the page.php file as you suggested.

    just to leave a note… it seems that it is some sort of caching problem. After unchecking it all in the “Display Header” section, save, and re-check everything header is finally showing up on my pages.

    OMG! That totally fixed the issue! Worked the first time!

    Thanks for the tip!

    Fixed mine too! Thank you sinitita!!

    Fixed mine too! Thank you sinitita!!

    I just installed CC2 and have the same problem. When I select the checkbox “on pages” under “Display Header Image” then the image is visible on all pages including the static Home page. But if I select only “on static frontpage” then the image is not visible anywhere.

    How to make it visible on the Front Page (Home) only?
