Customizing SMF > SMF Coding Discussion

Trying to edit the website name banner at the top left.

(1/2) > >>

GazthSonika:
Hi, so I'm trying to edit the url for the link in the top left of SMF.  Right now when I click on it, it takes me to the forum again, and I want it to go to my url.  I've figured out that part, but not completely.  The URL address shows up in black text next to the clickable URL itself.  Can you please help me fix this?  I'm using SMF 2.0.2

I've edited it so far in the h1 class forum title section.  How do I make this work properly?

Cheers,

GZ

Dzonny:
Hello there and welcome to smf community.

Can you please show us the url of your forum? Are you using default or some custom theme?
I'm not sure about which link you think in the left corner of forum? Menu button ('Home'), logo image, linktree or smth else?

GazthSonika:
Sure, here is the URL: hxxp:gazth-sonika.com/simplemachinesforum/ [nonactive]

Dzonny:
I see. Can you please attach Index.template.php file from Themes/your_theme/ folder here?

GazthSonika:
Sure, give me a few mins to do so please.
