change header image on different categories Serenity theme

[senordeer]

Hello. I thought this would be fairly simple but am having trouble, I have uploaded a custom graphic to the header of my site by going to Genesis Theme Settings > and choosing Image Logo rather than dynamic text, then adding:

.header-image #header #title-area {
	background: url(http://mobiletest.wordpresstest.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/header-3.png) left top no-repeat;
height:206px;
width:960px;
	}

in the CSS. Worked fine. All I want to do is call a different header image all uncategorized posts. I thought it would be simple, added this:

.category-uncategorized .header-image #header #title-area {
	background: url(http://mobiletest.wordpresstest.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/header-4.png) left top no-repeat;
height:206px;
width:960px;
	}

But the same image is still showing. Seems like it is some simple bit of CSS I am missing thanks in advance.

I would use a plugin like WP Display Header for this which is far easier.

Otherwise i have written about this many times using various methods, both CSS and PHP and/or custom fields

Hey Brad I definitely would use WP Display Header but on the Serenity theme, it does not support Custom Headers and I get an error message when I try to activate the plugin. Is there a straight CSS solution? It seems so simple to me but nothing I am trying works.

Oh you know what, never mind, that got me thinking, I just added

/** Add custom header support */
add_theme_support( 'genesis-custom-header', array( 'width' => 960, 'height' => 100, 'textcolor' => '444', 'admin_header_callback' => 'minimum_admin_style' ) );

to add custom header support to the theme and then activated WP Display Editor, thanks again for the help!

No worries. The plugin enables unlimited custom headers whereas any code would need to be modified for new category pages.
