How to Load My Logo to My WordPress Blog

WordPress provides you with a dashboard utility that lets you edit the layout and images on your blog. You can edit the blog's logo in the "header.php" file. You must link the new logo to the WordPress blog before it displays in the header, and you must have administrator access to the blog to change the logo.

Instructions

1. Open a Web browser and load your WordPress blog's home page. Click the "Admin" link and use your administrator user name and password to log in to the blog.

2. Click the "Appearance" link in the left panel. Click "Editor." The main editor for the blog will open. On the right side, a list of pages for the blog will be displayed. Click the "header.php" file to open the main, top file displayed in the blog.

3. Scroll down the page to the "logo" section. If you replace a text title with a logo, locate the line of code labeled "<?php bloginfo('name'); >."

4. Type the following code to include a logo image:

   <img src="mylogo.jpg">

   Replace "mylogo.jpg" with your own logo file name.

5. Click "Update File" to save the changes. The logo will display at the top of your blog. Click the blog link at the top of the dashboard to review the new blog settings.
