Hello, I am using the "modularity lite" theme in wordpress for my blog, http://blog.westpointsales.com/
There are 2 things I need to do...
1. Change the "West Point Lincoln Mercury Blog" into a logo (saved on wordpress http://blog.westpointsales.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/West-Point-Lincoln-logo.jpg)
2. Change the menu at the top right that says "categories, pages, subscribe and contact" to just list the pages on the blog (about, contact, etc.)
Thanks!

Hello Allie,
<strong>Add Logo</strong>
1. Open your favorite FTP application
2. browse /wp-content/themes/modularity-lite/
3. upload your logo to /images/
4. edit header.php
5. scroll to line 32 “<?php bloginfo('name'); ?> “
6. replace with “<img src="<?php bloginfo('template_directory'); ?>/images/logo.jpg "/>”
7. save and upload

<strong>Fix Navigation</strong>
1. edit nav.php
2. replace ‘<div id="nav"><ul>bla bla bla</ul></div>“
with
<div id="nav">
<ul>
<li class="drop">
<li><a href="/">Home</a></li>
<?php wp_list_pages('orderby=name&depth=3&title_li='); ?>
</li>
</div>
3. save and upload
<strong>Presto!</strong>

Hi Allie,
Could have been my mistake … make sure the path says ‘ <strong>IMAGES</strong> ‘ … ive since updated the code, I checked the site … that’s whats wrong.
<img src="<?php bloginfo('template_directory'); ?>/images/logo.jpg "/>
Cheers!

Allie,
I realize this logo is much to large for this template, your going to have to both resize the logo and modify some CSS to make everything look tight.
I would re-re replace my image tag with one that included dimensions and remove the blog info tag.
<strong>Replace this;</strong>
<h4 class="left"><a href="<?php echo get_settings('home'); ?>/" title="Home" class="logo"><img src="<?php bloginfo('template_directory'); ?>/images/logo.jpg" /></a> <span class="description"><?php bloginfo('description'); ?></span></h4>
<strong>with this;</strong>
<a href="<?php echo get_settings('home'); ?>/" title="Home" class="logo"><img src="<?php bloginfo('template_directory'); ?>/images/logo.jpg" width="168" height="70"/></a>
Allie,
Did you need help with the CSS?

Sorry, you cant seem to edit your comments …
<strong>This would be the new image tag</strong>
<h4 class="left"><<a href="<?php echo get_settings('home'); ?>/" title="Home" class="logo"><img src="<?php bloginfo('template_directory'); ?>/images/logo.jpg" width="168" height="70"/></a></h4>

You may need to edit a segment of the theme. Also it can be fixable using the <strong>theme option</strong>. I guess, need the admin access to see what can be done.
I can help you on this issue. PM me please.
