Replace Your Blog Title with a Logo
This post is the 2nd installment in my Wordpress Theme Tips series.
I’m sure you’ve noticed that practically all themes that you can download for free, have text in the header which links back to the blogs homepage. I’ll just bet you’ve visited other blogs that have a logo instead of this title text. Trying to figure out things like this can drive you nuts without a little direction. In this post, we’re going to look at replacing anchor text with an image. Creating a logo is not covered here, so we’ll assume you already have an image you want to use.
The easiest way to make this replacement would be to simply delete the text out of your document, and put the image there in it’s place. The only problem with that is the fact that a search engine can’t read what you’ve written in an image. So, the better practice would be to disguise the text with an image. Using CSS, we can leave the HTML text in place, and use a background image to hide it. Sound interesting?
