Use Logo across template width

So far I found out:

2 classes to be adapted:
#gkLogo and h1#gkLogo to use a custom logo with a different width/height.

That was the easy part.

Now my thought was to disable the modules login, register, tools and search,
use a logo with width 1002px (the template width), adapt the above mentioned classes and it'll work.

Sadly it doesn't. The template allows me to use only about 500pixels of logo width.

Which class do I have to edit to achieve the wanted result?
Or is it a setting I just haven't found yet?

Thanks in advance,

David

Hi,
so you have long logo? Are you sure it's still a logo not a header?
You can try to add your image using css & background , try to modify

Code: Select all
#gkTopWrapper {  background:url('big-logo.png') no-repeat; } 


it should work.

Thanks, good idea, but the logo or header (I'll take that) is now above the Logo where it is right now,
and above login & search.

I would like to have it right where the template says the logo should be but with width 1002px (in that case I would move search box and login)

Background: Actually I need 2 Logos one on the left and on the far right (where the searchbox is).

I thought the easiest way would be to have a .png - one logo on the left the other one on the right and in between transparency.

If there's a better way, let me know!!

Thanks for all the effort by the way!

Im getting the feeling that I am annoying you.
Sorry about that.

I guess your reply means that it is not possible without changing hard coded elements?

You need a little bit modify a template php file. But it's a save, you don't have to worry. Just remember about this in next framework update.
