In reply to: random banner hackYes, I’ve got cPanel X version 10.
My full account location is: https://paul.buildtolearn.net, or https://www.paul.buildtolearn.net
My WordPress is installed in a directory simply called “wp”
So the location of my main wordpress is https://paul.buildtolearn.net/wp/ or https://www.paul.buildtolearn.net/wp/
I don’t think I have shell access, no.
I’m using the cPanel File Manager, and I can navigate through my files easily.
So I created a folder for the banners I want to cycle through, and I created it in the /wp-content/ folder, so you can find it here: https://paul.buildtolearn.net/wp/wp-content/random-banner/ or here: https://www.paul.buildtolearn.net/wp/wp-content/random-banner/
That folder has only 4 images that I want to have the banners cycle through, no other types of files as the instructions specified.
So, what should my new things be? Should I be using “https://paul.buildtolearn.net/wp/wp-content/random-banner/” or “home/public_html/wp/wp-content/random-banner/”?
Which URL should I be using, and for which variable?
I really appreciate the help, and feel I am almost getting it to work.
oh, another quick questions regarding the same thing, the instructions say:
Edit your index.php (or whatever file you want a custom banner). Anywhere you want to insert an image, do your normal image placement fu. Between the quotation marks where you would normally place the path to the image, type a€?<? PHP random_banner(); ?>a€?.
How do I do this, because right now this is what that section of my header.php file looks like:
/* To ease the insertion of a personal header image, I have done it in such a way,
that you simply drop in an image called ‘personalheader.jpg’ into your /images/
directory. Dimensions should be at least 760px x 200px. Anything above that will
get cropped off of the image. */#headerimg { background: url(‘<?php bloginfo(‘stylesheet_directory’); ?>/images/ss3.jpg’) no-repeat top;}
How do I replace the image location with the PHP reference, since I’m not actually using the image source HTML code? thanks!

In reply to: random banner hackbut it says:
$image_directory is the full path to the image directory on your webserver. To figure out what this is, change to that directory and issue the command a€?pwda€?.
how do I do what? issue the command “pwd”??

In reply to: using a favicon with wP?I am, I put it in the /wp/ directory and here’s my code:
<LINK REL=”SHORTCUT ICON” HREF=”https://paul.buildtolearn.net/wp/favicon.ico”>
And I put it in the head of my header.php file…why won’t it work?

In reply to: using a favicon with wP?I did save it as a .ico, sorry that’s what I meant.
It’s in my root now, I’ll try it in the WP root though.
EDIT: I tried that, still doesn’t work =(

In reply to: How to change header image?I know, that’s where I’m reading from…it says:
/* To ease the insertion of a personal header image, I have done it in such a way,
that you simply drop in an image called ‘personalheader.jpg’ into your /images/
directory. Dimensions should be at least 760px x 200px. Anything above that will
