Uploading a Header

  • Unknown's avatar

    I am having trouble getting my header image to post. There is a button on the bottom right hand corner that says Select and Edit. After I select the image there is no “Save” button to click. I have tried to post the header image using Chrome and Safari but neither work. I am using an iPad.

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

    I was unable to locate the “Select and Edit” button that you report. With the Twenty Fourteen theme that you presently have activated, the options I find are summarized below:

    1. If you use the old custom header page, at https://oldschooltravels.wordpress.com/wp-admin/themes.php?page=custom-header, the options after uploading a new image will be “Crop and Publish,” or “Skip Cropping, Publish Image as Is.” If you choose an image from your media library, the first option will be “Set as Header,” followed by the two options mentioned above. In both cases it is unnecessary to click the “Save changes” button at the bottom of the page. The change is already saved with the cropping or skip cropping action.

    2. If you use the Customize page, the options after choosing a new image either by uploading one from files or by selecting one from your media library, will be as follows:
    Step A: Select and Crop
    Step B: Either a choice beteen Skip Cropping and Crop Image, or just Crop Image
    Step C: Save and Publish.

    I clicked on the link in your comment and was able to upload a header. I’m still having trouble with editing the pictures. I’m using an iPad, so that could be the problem.

    I don’t know. You might find help with that issue at the WordPress for iOS support forums.
