• I’m about to start crying.

    I fell in love with this theme and things have been going great until I went to try and add a header image resize to the function.php and then everything fell apart.

    I tried copy and pasting the original function.php from the spun.zip file but nothing.

    Im so sad. 🙁 I don’t know what i did wrong and now that website is ruined. I’m hoping I can find a quick fix soon as i need to have this website done! 🙁

    I tried that too and it really messed up my functions.php file. 🙁

    The header will crop to 150px x 150px unless you add a filter to make it larger. Here’s a step-by-step:

    1) Create a child theme — Jan’s instructions above are perfect! Don’t forget to activate it under Appearance -> Themes (but don’t delete the parent theme)
    2) Add a functions.php file to your child theme — it should have only one line of code to start:

    <?php

    3) Add the code posted in this thread to your child theme’s functions.php after that first line, changing the values to the new dimensions you need

    That, coupled with the CSS Andrew suggested above, will allow you to resize the header image to fit your design.

    how do I create a child theme? is my jetpack not a child theme?
    and I have a functions.php file already, do I make a new one?

    Theme Author Caroline Moore

    You’ll find instructions for creating a child theme in the links above, and then you’ll make a new functions.php file to go in your child theme.

    Jetpack only allows you to edit the theme’s appearance — it doesn’t allow you to change the theme’s functionality, like the custom header size.

    How do I create a directory?
    Where do I add the new functions too and whats the exact coding that goes

    Im so nervous i’ll eff’ it up again and have to reinstal a new spun so I want to be very very sure of the steps and directions.

    See this link http://codex.ww.wp.xz.cn/Child_Themes and see Jan’s post above. You’ll need to have FTP access to your site – ask your hosting company about the access info for FTP.
