Setting the Logo Width in theme options has NO effect. I have a Logo 600×112 and when I set the Logo Width option to 600 the logo is NOT 600 wide in header. It is only 270.

Hey guys,
have you actually tried to input “600″ or did you write “600px”?
600px will not work, you’d need to type 600.

Thanks Melanie,

Yes I did as it clearly states to put in only the numeric value. So that is what I did, I only put in 600.

I’m not sure if any of this will make sense and there maybe an issue with a simple fix, but my CSS experience is somewhat limited.

After some very basic FireBug investigation, the issue “appears” to be a “clearfix” issue in the Bootstrap CSS files (bootstrap-responsive.min.css & bootstrap.min.css) line 9. But of course the Bootstrap CSS files have been compacted so everything is line 9, but all the clearfix declarations occur very early and easy enough to find.

When I attempted to mess around a bit with these as well as independently styling the “#logo img” as “max-width: 200%;” in the FlexForm style.css, I was able to get my logo to actually resize to 540px, but the second half(270px) was hidden underneath all the “clearfix” issued in the Bootstrap CSS files as well as some of the Nav block even though I only have 4 items in my Nav.

I’m not a wiz with CSS, but I believe there is something to do with the ongoing “clearfix clearfix:after group:after overflow:hidden overflow:auto” CSS debate. and I have never ever completely grasped the enitre “clearing” thing with inline and block floats.

I really need help with this. The site is a DEV site for a client and the URL is Protected, so please email me if you want me to send login to URL. Besides I cleared all my edits and restored the CSS changes back to default.

Thanks, Bonnie

Hi,
please let us know your wp-admin login details in a private reply. Resizing the logo works on my end from the theme options without any css hacks whatsoever, so there must be a bug on your installation.

Thanks

Hello

I’m having the same problem as Bonnie. My 318px logo is resizing to 270px for some reason.

Did you find a solution to this?

Thanks.

The user did not post back yet. Chees

[mai_ling]

So would you be able to help me with my problem then?

If this user never posts back, which is beyond my control, I will never receive help with my problem?

It would be really appreciated.

Thx.

Well that’s not at all what I meant — I was merely indicating that the information I requested from that user never arrived, so if you need help from me, I would need the same information from you which I requested from the other user 🙂 Cheers

In header.php you find

<div id="logo" class="span3 clearfix">

and

<div id="nav-section" class="<?php echo $nav_class; ?> span9 clearfix">

You can change the widths by changing span3 and span9 to span4 and span8

Cheers
