Hi,
I realise this has been asked before, but I've read ALL the docs AND the forums and am still getting nowhere - so I'd really
really appreciate some pointers from someone who's in the know...
Very straight forward really - i'm using the latest cpg install with the latest curve theme, and I want to input the path to my main site header in the config > theme settings> Path to custom header include.
I've set-up a test wordpress site with a test cpg gallery inside it, all in the root of my current site, so i can craft a good overall look for the cpg gallery.
url to this setup is
http://www.trevorpenfold.com/testing/test_gallery/ with "testing' being my wordpress main testing home site - and once sorted I'll do a clean install of cpg into the site
www.trevorpenfold.com.
So in the cpg "config > theme settings> Path to custom header include" I've tried all relative paths (as stated) for various options including:
/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/cropped-AA-05192-web.jpg
or
../wp-content/uploads/2013/04/cropped-AA-05192-web.jpg -
neither work!+
/wp-blog-header.php -
doesn't workor
../wp-blog-header.php -
this one crashes the site!+
/wp-content/themes/twentytwelve/inc/custom-header.php -
this does nothing!or
../wp-content/themes/twentytwelve/inc/custom-header.php -
this does nothing!+
and some custom menu ideas...
/wp-content/plugins/ubermenu/ubermenu.php -
this does nothing!or
../wp-content/plugins/ubermenu/ubermenu.php -
this one crashes the site!The paths that crashed the site were occasionally irreversible, and entailed me uninstalling cpg and doing a fresh install - hence you won't see any albums or images as I've just been focusing on trying to get the custom header to work without crashing the site again!
I've also tried moving positions of the {custom_header} token in the curve template.html - but no change.
looking forward to someone to put me out of my misery....
Cheers
