In reply to: Header and Sidebar Modification Help Please?thanks so much for replying to my plea for help….
yes, i saw that code when i viewed source but it’s not as simple as that for me when i go to edit the code within wordpress admin. here’s my header code as it appears within the theme-editor in wordpress:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC “-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN” “https://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd”>
<html xmlns=”https://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml” <?php language_attributes() ?>>
<head profile=”https://gmpg.org/xfn/11″>
<title><?php bloginfo(‘name’); if ( is_404() ) : _e(‘ » ‘, ‘sandbox’); _e(‘Not Found’, ‘sandbox’); elseif ( is_home() ) : _e(‘ » ‘, ‘sandbox’); bloginfo(‘description’); else : wp_title(); endif; ?></title>
<meta http-equiv=”content-type” content=”<?php bloginfo(‘html_type’) ?>; charset=<?php bloginfo(‘charset’) ?>” />
<meta name=”description” content=”<?php bloginfo(‘description’) ?>” />
<meta name=”generator” content=”WordPress <?php bloginfo(‘version’) ?>” /><!– Please leave for stats –>
<link rel=”stylesheet” type=”text/css” href=”<?php bloginfo(‘stylesheet_url’); ?>” />
<link rel=”alternate” type=”application/rss+xml” href=”<?php bloginfo(‘rss2_url’) ?>” title=”<?php echo wp_specialchars(get_bloginfo(‘name’), 1) ?> <?php _e(‘Posts RSS feed’, ‘sandbox’); ?>” />
<link rel=”alternate” type=”application/rss+xml” href=”<?php bloginfo(‘comments_rss2_url’) ?>” title=”<?php echo wp_specialchars(get_bloginfo(‘name’), 1) ?> <?php _e(‘Comments RSS feed’, ‘sandbox’); ?>” />
<link rel=”pingback” href=”<?php bloginfo(‘pingback_url’) ?>” />
<?php wp_head() ?></head>
<body class=”<?php sandbox_body_class() ?>”>
<div id=”wrapper” class=”hfeed”>
<div id=”header”>
<div id=”blog-description”><h1 id=”blog-title”>/” title=”<?php bloginfo(‘name’) ?>” rel=”home”><?php bloginfo(‘name’) ?></h1><?php bloginfo(‘description’) ?>
</div></div><!– #header –>
<div id=”access”>
<div class=”skip-link”>“><?php _e(‘Skip to content’, ‘sandbox’); ?></div>
<?php sandbox_globalnav() ?>
</div><!– #access –>as you can see the title and ‘just another wordpress blog’ etc are pulled from elsewhere, they are not determined within the header code itself.
what do i need to remove from the existing header code, and then what do i need to add to it, to have a banner image replacing that white space and text at the top of the page?
apologies for my ‘dumbness’, i really am extremely new to this….
