Add picture in header on sofaskin webpage.

[Mikael Fredriksson]

Hi!

Can someone explain how to add a picture at the top of a sofaskin web page? I only know how to change the color in a .css file, main.css I think it was...

Like it´s done on this page: http://www.limburgweer.com/index_EN.html

I don't know that skin, but I did something similar for the old standard skin. 

For a single image, you need to add a line to the template (index.html.tmpl probably) like

<div id = "banner">

<img id="banner" src="backgrounds/my_picture.jpg" alt="my_picture"/>  

</div> 

 

I wrote a little bit of javascript to rotate different pictures under the banner and if you're interested you can find it in the index.html.tmpl here: https://github.com/PeterQuinn925/weewx_skin/blob/master/index.html.tmpl

Peter,

Thank you for that answer. Unfortunately I don't get it to work with those lines. I change the address to where I have the picture but it dont change the background.
I wonder if it's in the main.css, because thats where the background color is set. If I inspect the html on his page I don't see any lines like those in the code.

Hope you understand what I mean.

Can I copy&paste something here that helps?

It's in the html, not the css, and you need to change it in the template as the html gets regenerated each time the site is updated.

You could try using the dev tools in your browser (f12 for chrome) to find the area of the html where you want to add the picture. The lines won't be there, you'll need to add them in the right place.

The path is set in your main.css file, in mine it's line 578 :

header {

  background: #05c2d8 url('../images/winter.jpeg') 100%;

Yes, that did it!

Thank you Muireadach!

Looked at your page and got really impressed of your Station records page, can you share how you set that up with all the records split up in seperate boxes?

Thanks!
