Unable to change header on my site

  • Unknown's avatar

    Hi, I’m trying to change my header and no matter how many times I do, though it indicates that it’s been changed, nothing happens… the picture stays the same. I even tried changing the layout, thinking that might help, but it didn’t. I’m not very high tech at these sorts of things, so is there simple solution to this so that I can customize my page the way I’d like? Thank you for your help.

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

  • Hi there,

    Are you still facing the issue? If so, it sounds like a browser issue. I recommend you to clear your web browser once and try customizing again.

    Hi gabriellamessinawrites,

    The featured image on your front page is currently an image of books with the text, Gabriella Messina. Is this the page you are referring to and if so, do you see the same image?

    Yes, this is the page, and that is the image I’m seeing.

    Hi gabriellamessinawrites,

    Is that the image you want to use or have you tried to choose another?

    Hi gemmacevans,

    I’d like to replace it with a different image. I uploaded it (several, in fact lol), and it will say they’ve been changed, but the image never changes. Everything else that I’ve changed on the page…font, background…have all worked… Everything but the header.

    Which image in your Media Library would you like to use? You can either tell me the file name or send me a direct link to the image in your Media Library (click edit and copy the URL).

    Do you mind if I try and replacing the featured image on the Home page so I can see what is happening?

  • Unknown's avatar

    Oh, yes, absolutely, that would be fine… Here is the URL for the image I want to use:

    Thank you so much for helping!
