Header pic/link

[s10sakota]

Hi everybody!

I set up my forums a long time ago and have not had to make any real adjustments other than adding or deleting individual forums. When I did originally set up the forums, I obviously uploaded the "RANS CLAN" pic and logo that's placed on the upper part of the page (I'm assuming that area is called the 'header'.

The issue now is that when that image is clicked, it directs the user to the same page they are already on (in this case-the forums page). I want to change the link so that it takes the user to my main website. So, currently it is linked to http://www.ransclan.com/forums and I want to change the link to http://www.ransclan.com

I no longer have any clue where I uploaded this pic! I can't find any option anywhere that lets me change the link on the header! (I can't even find where I changed the pic!)

Can you guys help direct me to where I can edit this pic and change the link? I am using VB version 4.1.7

Thank you so much!

To upload the pic / change the logo, go to AdminCP --> Styles & Templates --> Style Manager --> [StyleVars] --> Title Image. Change the path there and save.

To change the link and perhaps add some navigation between the forum and the main site I would suggest upgrading from 4.1.7 to 4.2.2

Search header template for:

<a name="top" href="{vb:link forumhome}" class="logo-image">

And edit it to

<a name="top" href="http://www.ransclan.com" class="logo-image">


PS. this code is from 4.2.2 so it may look different in 4.1.7.

Thank you both very much! I just found the code and changed it. I will have to look into upgrading to 4.2.2

I'm always so afraid to upgrade because I'm afraid I will wipe out the entire forum!

Thanks again for your help.

It would be best to upgrade for Security reasons and so much more!
Bonus you get the Navigation Manager.

It is smart to be a bit afraid. Make a complete backup (or two) of your board, not just the database. :)

Ask a friend to help, if your not sure how.
