Change URL of Site Logo

Hi @jonasschoen,

Glad you like them!

Chaplin includes a custom function for outputting the logo (chaplin_get_custom_logo()), so in order to change the URL, you’d have to copy that function over to a child theme and modify the URL of the <a> element within the function.

Hi @anlino,

thanks for your reply. I found this function before but nothing happens if I change the <a> element.

I copied the “header.php” file to my child theme and only changed this line:
$home_link_contents = '<a href="' . esc_url( home_url( '/' ) ) . '" rel="home">' . wp_kses_post( $site_title ) . '</a>';

to this
$home_link_contents = '<a href="https://my-custom-url.com">' . wp_kses_post( $site_title ) . '</a>';

I don’t know if just oversee something. But I also understand that you can’t solve every problem, so I might just keep it the way it is.

Cheers,
Jonas

Hi @jonasschoen,

That line (with the <a> tag) is only used when a logo isn’t set, and the site title is output as text.

To modify the URL used in the logo, you’ll have to copy over the chaplin_get_custom_logo() function from the Chaplin functions.php file to your child theme functions.php file, and change the URL there.

Hi @anlino,

I checked several times now but the chaplin_get_custom_logo() function only appears in the the header.php file. In the functions.php file is no such function.

Cheers,
Jonas

@jonasschoen Sorry, forgot I had restructured the functions file in Chaplin. You’ll find it parts/template-tags.php.

Thank you very much, Anders! Now it works.
