Header image not displaying in Magazine Pro

[amandaotaylor]

I am at a total loss. I was able to fix the height, width and put the code i the php to change my header size but all I see is white. I uploaded my header into the header area and its there its just not displaying on the page. Here is a screenshot. What am I missing?

I'm using a different theme on localhost and having the same problem. I do not see uploaded images in the media library and when I tell the theme to display the image in the header it shows as pure white and obscures the header text if it's on.

What I have noticed in the media library is that the image files are being referenced in a location that does not actually exist on my computer: http://localhost/sitename/wp-content/uploads/2014/01/image.jpeg

There is no 'uploads' folder in any install of WP or any theme on my computer, but WP's media library says it's there.

If I search for that specific image it shows up in a completely different folder:

C:\data\19\1\67\149\1882638\user\2046592\htdocs\wordpress\wp-content\uploads\20141

I don't know how to resolve this because I can't figure out how to point WP to the right folder or where to create the folder it wants, but this does seem to be a disconnect. Does this help? Any advice?

@amandaotaylor, I see your header now. So this is now resolved for you, correct?

Resolved my specific problem by changing the "Upload Path" in the settings for my site to match the upload folder I created locally. (I am tinkering with WP MU so I found this setting under the network settings for the specific site I'm working on.)

I had to put the link for the .jpg into the files css under the Title area. It's not perfect but its working for now. What I found really confusing is that you can go in and take away the code for the title of the website to show so that you can do a full length header, add in the support php for header and alter the css for it but then when you go to upload header nothing happens. Resorting to putting into the css was the only way I could get it to show up.
