Default Make Logo Link To Homepage

How can I make my logo also be a link back to my homepage?

Can someone provide standard code to do this and where to access it?

Thanks,

Nate

go to your style sheet change

.headerleft {
width: 460px;
float: left;
font-size: 14px;
margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;
}



.headerright {
width: 488px;
float: right;
margin: 0px;
padding: 45px 0px 0px 0px;
}
to

.headerleft {
width: 960px;
float: left;
font-size: 14px;
margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;
}



.headerright {
width: 0px;
float: right;
margin: 0px;
padding: 45px 0px 0px 0px;
}

now open header php and change what you have to this

Code:
<div id="header">

	<div class="headerleft">
		[img]<?php bloginfo('template_url'); ?>/images/logo.png[/img]" />
	</div>
	

		
	<div class="headerright">

	</div>

</div>
rename your image logo.png now your banner should be a link

Hi Debra,

Thanks for the reply. I have a few questions before I do that. My headerleft code does not look like what you described. Mine looks like this:

.headerleft {
width: 460px;
float: left;
font-size: 14px;
margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;
}

.headerleft a img {
border: none;
margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;
}

Should I still change it to what you suggested?

Also, you said to rename my logo. I'm not sure if I understand what I should do about that part. Can you clarify?

Thanks you,
Nate

I left that out so as not to make it complicated as that has nothing to do with the process. Just go ahead

Hi Debra.

I tried it, but it just put the Church Theme logo on top of my logo.

I'm not sure what's wrong?

I'm sorry for the confusion. This is my first blog and I have no programming experience.

I understand changing my image, but I have not clue where it is. I tried right clicking on my logo to get the path, but it doesn't show up.

Does anyone know how to find the path where my logo is? I tired going into the images folder, but I can't find it. Is there a default path where this would be in uploaded.

Most of what I find is default wordpress images. I don't understand why I can't right click on the image and fine the path.

Any clues?
