How do I change the logo image in phpBB? I'm a total newbie to forums and chose phpBB as I was told it was the best. But so far I have struggled to install addons and change images. I might be just missing something simple but i need someone to point it out. Sandy
Hi SandyMcC, I started out on phpbb and quickly moved to vBulletin as although phpbb is ok for a free piece of software it was a headache to do anything like install addons as you've discovered. You may think you've installed an addon correctly but because you've made a minor typo for example it messes something else up. My advice would be to get a good editor with a decent search & replace function and changing the main logo is easy just right click on the logo and select properties and look at which directory the image is stored in and overwrite it with your current logo. Remember to always keep a backup of the logo as if you ever have to upgrade the forum software then the original logo will overwrite your own again.
^^ Please don't play with your directories and template files if you're not sure of how to edit them. First upload the logo you want to the imageset folder of your template. To change your logo to to the ACP > Styles Tab > Imagesets (it's on the left) > Click edit on the appropriate theme name > Select "Main Logo" and chose a new image for it.
