2.0.4 installed. I've tries to get this to work, even changed my logo from a gif to a png file, no luck, is there something I'm missing?

Hi

It's the default one, I just installed the forum without any changes.

NekoJonez

Let me check. Since I have that theme installed on my site too. I'll check if I'm able to change the logo.

Would you please check in the meantime if there is something in the error log?

Just something about an undefined error during the 2.0.3 to 4 upgrade, the package seems to have installed OK however.

It does display my logo flawlessy. There are mods to get rid of the SMF logo.

Yes, to a similar image to the actual site.

Do you use photobucket? If so it is easy.

Admin > Configuration > Themes and Layout > Theme Settings

Look For: Logo image URL:

I say photobucket as this is what I use.

As a beginner it will be a good place to start.

TheListener

To remove the smf logo follow the above and then look for:

Site slogan:
Add your own text for a slogan here. It will replace the SMF logo.

Imgur.com is also a great site for that. I had some issues with the image breaking when uploaded on Photobuck when they were down and such.

I have never known photobucket to be down.

Scratchit

I put my logo image in the actual website, and entered the URL, all the files are in more or less the same place. It doesn't have to search for an external URL

I did that, hence the wording ROYAL ENGINEERS FORUM on the right top corner, I'm trying to change the device on the left to corner

Whoa Scratchit ya losing me here.

The site slogan is a seperate thing to adding the forum logo to the forum.

Which wording are you trying to change?

The forum logo goes on the top left
