use my transparent logo

  • Unknown's avatar

    I am following a video about building a website with Word Press and want to change the stock logo to my own. In Photoshop, I created one on a transparent background from some shadowed text, and I use as a watermark on photos or videos.

    In the video example, I’m following he gets a logo from Photopea and makes the background transparent.

    When I first shrank my logo and tried upload it didn’t work, I think becasue it was .PSD. So I flattened and made a jpg, but when I replace the logo with mine, it has a white background and I see no option to make it transparent.

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

    HI there, although it looks like your site is using the WP open source software, just to answer your question, by definition, JPGs do not support transparency; only PNGs do.

    For all other help with your theme, please contact your theme’s author and for general help https://wordpress.org/support/ where you’ll find documentation and users who have more experience with the software you are using. If you don’t have a username on the ORG forums you can register one on the top of that page.

    Best wishes

    That seemed to be the solution and I saved as png, but for some reason it doesn’t show in the file manager. I will ask Adobe why.
    Thanks.
