    Greetings!

    I've got a user trying to use the theme (and it works!), but she has one question. You have a place to name the logo.jpg file, but I can't find a place that allows her to upload the file? Everything else she wants to do seems to be fine, just that one thing... If I don't have to teach her how to use ftp to get into that one directory, I'd rather not!

    Thanks!
    Jason

    Without knowing this theme I suspect that you have to put your own logo file within the theme's folder.

    yes, as acrylian says, and the theme options states in the option description...

    Greetings Acrylian,

    I didn't post the name of the theme, because it was in the description of the topic! Sorry about that... zpFocus, is the theme I'm talking about.
    I was hoping, since you have the option to name the logo file that there would be a way (internal to the theme) to upload it, so I don't have to open an sftp link to it and teach her how to do that. Seems "dangerous" to the level of user that could otherwise use zenphoto without problems. If I wanted to add such a button, is there a simple way to do it?
    Thanks!

    I don't see that I said anything regarding that... Not knowing the theme means it's 3rd party so I naturally can't directly support it. If you refered to that.. Anyways.

    Themes are designs you need to setup. Zenphoto is a CMS which means it manages content and a logo is not really content but part of the design of a site. Especially since a logo is surely added only once..

    Of course you can setup a theme to to use an image from a specific hidden image to achieve what you want. But I am not sure if that is worth the work...

    Hmm...
    Well, apparently I'm very confusing. :}

    My original post was for gjr, because he started this post about releasing his (it looks like his, from the format of his post) of zpFocus 1.3. So my question of having a function to upload the file one of his options (logo.png/jpg) points to was directed to him, as I that appears to be the only reason I would have to teach my user how to use sftp for. I was hoping that there would be a similar mechanism to uploading images available for the logo file.
    Sorry if I confused anyone else.
    Cheers!

    No problem. the easiest way is still to setup the theme to use a special album for this if you need it dynamic. Otherwise you need to code a special facility for this. I think this would not make no senses as you normally don't frequently change your logo (or should not..;-)).

    Hey Acrylian,

    Now you're just being logical. That is _not_ the way developers are supposed to think! :}
    Ah well, I'll just tell her to email me the file and I'll update it. Much easier for all around. And I have no idea how often she'll change it!

    Cheers!

    That might be because I actually have my roots in illustration/design and not developing..;-)

    Hello gjr,
    I'm using Zenphoto version 1.3.1 [5791] (Official Build)
    Current gallery theme: zpFocus13.

    I am having a little trouble finding a Validation Output Error on my news and news/category pages.
    This is the error according to WC3 Markup Validation Service:

    Line 299, Column 5: end tag for "ul" which is not finished

    I'm guessing it is somewhere in the theme functions.php. I have looked line by line at that page, but I'm still learning the functions of php code and can't seem to figure it out.
    I was hoping you or someone could assist me with this. You can see the news page at: http://www.vintage-electronics-ads.com/news
    Thank-you!
