  I’ve been trying everything I can think of, but I can’t figure out how to change the photo on my homepage! How do I do that?

  Hi @createdforhisglory15,

  what is the address of the site you’re working on?

  
  @tomterrific1, those instructions are for WordPress sites hosted elsewhere, if you’d like to learn about the difference, have a look here:

  I’m having the same issue. I made my own blog banner that I want to use instead of the image on my website. How do I replace? Thanks!

  Hi @pattyzamora, we will need to know which site you are working on, because the settings depend on your theme. Can you send a link?

  And @tomterrific1 is likely correct; that’s often managed under Customize > Header. It depends on your theme and how old it is, since the way we manage that has changed over the years.

  Thanks, this one’s newer. For the image on that front page, edit the front page. Tap on the image. If needed, use the Block Navigation option (looks like horizontal lines making steps) at the top of your page to select the image and not the columns within it.

  Once you’ve selected the image, tap Replace, and you can pick a new image from there.
