Hi
Does anyone know how to add a link back to the homepage if someone clicks the logo at the top of the page? I have ‘Home’ on the top menu bar, but also want to allow users to click the logo & return to the home page.
Thanks
Mike

Hey Mike,
I believe its in the top_menu.tpl file … check your skins folder for that file

Hi, I have opened the top_menu.tpl file, but don’t know where to insert the link there?
If you go into design>logos and upload the customer area logo it should have the link to the homepage automatically added to it.

I went to Design->logos, and I can see that my logo has been added, however I can’t see any place where I can type in a link to my homepage?
Also, the width of the logo that I see on the admin page is shorter than the one displaying on my website, I am wandering whether my previous designer added another wider version of my logo through one of the template files?
(p.s. I am running version 2.010)
Go to the image in your homepage right click and save as. Rename it to something different (but relevant)
then go to design>logos and re upload the re named customer area logo.
When it re uploads I am sure it adds the homepage link automatically.

Thanks, I am trying this, but now getting the message when I try to add the logo:
Warning: copy(/…/httpdocs/skins/electro/customer/images/CC_Logo.png) [function.copy]: failed to open stream: Permission denied in /…/httpdocs/controllers/admin/site_layout.php on line 70
I have been having loads of problems with file & folder permissions, and have contacted the server helpdesk. Will try your suggestion once I get this working.
Thanks again.

Check your directory permissions for your skins/electro folder… it looks like you don’t have write permissions.
I have changed directory permissions of the file & directories to 777, and that seemed to sort it.
I have found that someone (maybe previous designer) has added code for the logo placement in the styles.css file :
#header {
background: #272a2a url(images/header_bg.gif) repeat-x left top;
}
.header-helper-container {
background: url([COLOR=“DeepSkyBlue”]images/logo-header.gif[/COLOR]) no-repeat right top;
padding-bottom: 0px;
height:102px;
}
.logo-image {
margin: 0px;
background: url(images/top_left_angle.gif) no-repeat left top;
padding: 21px 0 0 19px;
}
Is this how it is meant to be done? I don’t think so, that is why there is the facility to add the logo on the admin page. Any changes I make to logo through the admin page is having no effect, so I guess the styles.css file overrides it.
Would you know how to fix this please?
Do you want to share the web address?
Normally the image tag in top.tpl (or main_content.override.tpl) is enclosed in an anchor tag for most skins. If your skin has been customized then someone did not preserve it.
Thanks for your help, do you know what I would need to change the code to in order to have it the way it should be?
I must be missing something… Yes, if you have missing code then you would need to add it back to revover the functionality that is also missing.
It’s a simple:
