hello everyone, i'm trying elgg, and after adding a few plug-ins i would need to replace the "site name" header with a png logo, but being an inexperienced programmer i don't want to modify something incorrectly and compromise the functioning of the whole site. can anyone tell me which files to modify and kindly post the code to insert? Thanks to anyone who can provide me with information on this matter.
Using elgg 6.1.1

- Go to /admin/plugin_settings/elgg_theme and disable this option 'Show only site name on the topbar instead of logo image' and 'Save'.
- Now go to /admin/elgg_theme/logo and upload your logo image and 'Save'.

Thank you very much for the reply and the shared resource, the plug in works but I actually wanted to insert a logo instead of the site name text, and from the plug in settings there is no way, or at least I have not been able to, to insert a logo in png format.
You may need to run 'Upgrade' via Dashboard to see the changes.
Thanks for the very fast response, I followed your instructions meticulously but I can't get the logo to display.
in the plugin you suggested there is a logo.png but it is stored at the following path
\elgg_theme\views\default\graphics\logo.png
I tried to follow your information by moving the file into the paths you indicated but nothing, I regularly updated at each test performed, but no results. Thanks again for your availability
The logo (as well sscover) is saved in /data/elgg_theme/ folder, where data is your Elgg data folder.
elgg_theme should be created when you upload the image.
Check that this folder exists on your server and it was created with the necessary permissions.
