Struggling to change ‘Site Identity/Logo ‘size?

I have tried going through CSS and changing the header size but I am having no luck. Guessing I’m entering the wrong text.

I am using Theme ‘Twenty Seventeen’

Any help will be greatly appreciated:)

You can use the Easy Logo plugin.This plugin helps in managing your WordPress website’s logo.

I thank you for your help, I only have the Premium WordPress so I can’t use plugins.

Is there any other way?

Hi 98vision,

Yes, this change can be made using custom CSS. I’ve written some code which should help increase the logo size. Please paste the following code in to My Sites > Customise > CSS, underneath what is already there:
```
/* increases logo size */

@media (min-width:768px) {  
	img.custom-logo {
		max-height: 200px;
	}
}
```
The 200px can be changed to increase the logo size further but bear in mind that adding a value greater than the logo size will cause pixellation.

Do you also want to change the header image height?

Please let me know if you have any questions.

@jorgecasariego — custom plugins can only be installed on sites using the Business plan so I always recommend trying the CSS approach first :)

@98vision @gemmacevans – My apologies to both. It was my mistake not to ask before if the site had the Business plan :/

And I agree that it is always better to try the CSS approach first
