    I'm using the Education Child Theme with Genesis. I've uploaded a logo.png file (Appearance --> Header). The logo is aligning to the left and I would like it to align Center (or right).

    About Adam Johnson

    I have a "Header Right" Text widget in place.

    I've tried everything I can think of in the CSS and tried removing the Header Right widget.

    Any suggestions?

    Thanks.

    Remove your logo from Appearance > Header and add this to your stylesheet:

    #header {
    background: url(http://www.atomshoots.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/header-logo-840x1201.png) center no-repeat !important;
    }

    That will center it, though it overlaps the header right text a little.

    Hey there! I think I am having a similar issue. I just upgraded WordPress & Genesis and now my header looks like it's aligning left and it should be centered (I think) so it's correctly aligned w/ the body of my site like it used to be.

    Would your fix help my issue as well?

    My site is: Delaware Bible College

    Thanks!

    Hi Kim,

    Try this and see how it looks - I can't tell if this is what you're aiming for since I didn't see the site prior to the upgrade.

    Remove the header image from Appearance > Header, then add this to your stylesheet:

    #header {
    background: url(http://delawarebiblecollege.com/wp-content/uploads/logo.png) center no-repeat !important;
    }

    Thank you nutsandbolts. That did the trick to move the header, but then the header text (which is disabled in all locations) was showing up in front of the header. I tried the following instructions which I got from the Help Desk for another site and this fixed the issue. Someone else might need this too! =)

    Ok, what you're experiencing is actually the result of a bug fix that your site was taking advantage of 🙂

    Since you are using CSS in your style.css file to add the header, I would recommend removing this from your functions.php file to fix the issue:

    /** Add support for custom header */
    add_theme_support( 'genesis-custom-header', array(
    'width' => 1060,
    'height' => 120
    ) );

    Then, under Genesis > Theme Settings, there will be a new settings box to select dynamic text or image logo. Select Image logo for the setting and click save.
