SID-02051: Changing the logo in the upper left corner

Status:	Answered	TWiki version:	6.0.1	Perl version:	5.18.2

I just want to put my logo in the upper left hand corner. I do not know what version of TWiki I am running. I downloaded it recently.

I attached my logo to the TWiki Preferences page and edited it as follows. The logo didn't change. What and I doing wrong?

<div class="twikiHelp">%ICON{"info"}% %MAKETEXT{"Site-level preferences are located in [_1], however this [_2] prefs topic has override priority and should be used for local customizations. This allows for easier upgrades as you don&#39;t need to worry about the shipped preferences clobbering yours.

Discussion and Answer

Hello Perry,

It seems you got the syntax of the setting not quite correct: It must show up like a bullet list. In the "plain" wiki text edit, that is three spaces, one star, and then the Set:

• Set WIKILOGOIMG =

Ok, I managed to set the logo for this page. Unfortunately it doesn't fit for the layout, but you get the spirit

BTW: Be careful when copying access control settings. You locked us all (and yourself) out by restricting access to TWikiAdminGroup

I fixed the logo image size and attached it to this topic. The setting is now:

   * Set WIKILOGOIMG = http://twiki.org/p/pub/Support/SID-02051/logo55.png

Best to limit the height to 55 pixels, and to make the background transparent.
