  I am trying to customize https://miatavor.wordpress.com/, but simply can’t change the Header image. I can upload a picture, but doesn’t actually change. In the same manner, I can’t change it to another WordPress image. Also, I can’t see the image of my website after I upload posts to other websites, such as Twitter.

  I’m using Google Chrome.

  This is extremely frustrating since I’m willing to purchase my personal domain if it finally works.

  If you could please check for bugs or check the site that would be great.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi,

  but simply can’t change the Header image.

  To change to another of the default header images just click on one of the images and then click the “Save & Publish” button.

  I can upload a picture, but doesn’t actually change.

  Are you following the instructions in the Uploading a Custom Header Image section of the Custom Header Image support page?

  Well, thank you, if it was that simple I wouldn’t be calling for help. I’ve tried to do that many times, and it DOESN’T WORK.

  Yes, I am. And… it doesn’t work! Like the original WordPress Header image is stuck there.

  Hi, can you confirm you’re trying to change the image that currently shows some trees and leaves? Which uploaded image are you trying to change this to?

  It finally works. You can now close the topic. Thank you so much for you help.

  You’re very welcome. As a general tip in case someone else runs into this: Be sure you’re using the theme documentation. It will give you minimum sizes and also specify whether you should be changing a site header or just the featured image for your home page.

  Cheers :)
