 * Hi,
 * Attitude theme is great and I love it but I would like to replace the existing
   header with my custom header with links, images, background color…etc. The current
   custom header option only supports image. Also I tried the ‘Header/Footer’ plugin
   but it is not really replacing the existing header but adding on top part of 
   existing page. Not so nice.
    I also read something about unhooking existing header
   and adding your own but I do not know how to do it in Attitude. I wonder if anyone
   can give some pointer on removing attitude header hook and adding a new header
   function.
 * I think it probably needs to add some php code in functions.php in a child theme
   
   something like…
 *     ```
       <?php
       // Now we add our new function to our Action Hook
       add_action('init','childtheme_welcome_blurb', 15);
   
       // First we make our function
       function childtheme_welcome_blurb() { ?>
        <p>Welcome to my new header</p>
       <?php
       remove_action( 'init','attitude_header',15);
   
       } // end of our new function childtheme_welcome_blurb
       ```
   
 * Thanks in advance!
