Greetings,

I've tried multiple times to change out the header logo and want it to reflect across all of my hosting accounts. I can't even get it changed for one account.

I watched the vids, read the fine print, named the .jpg logo as requested (top-logo) and still nothing.

Anybody done this and if so how? Details please.

Thanks in advance.

What I normally do is:

1. Go to my cPanel Interface
2. go to Branding Editor
3. select a style I want to edit
4. click edit logo
5. Upload my logo and it works

I know there were some overnight build releases for EDGE, CURRENT, RELEASE and STABLE so you may want to consider updating and see if that resolves the issue. I know there are some continuing issues with setting branding in some circumstances, but nothing like this that I'm aware of.

Thanks David. I will give this another shot today sometime and report my results.

Nope. Its still the cpanel logo.

I've named the file top-logo. Is this a problem and if so, what should/can I name it?

Thanks for your help too.

Whatever you name the file on your computer should be irrelevant with relation to changing the logo. I've uploaded many test images myself that had very generic names like "picture 1.jpg" or "DMG00001.jpg"

What type of image file are you attempting to upload?

One that I've tried is .jpg 130x86 9.05kb.

I do now have the cPanel logo so it will move around and I can resize it.

Okay, just making sure it wasn't .xcf or some sort of Photoshop file or odd image format like that. If I was in your situation and had root access, I'd run
/scripts/upcp --force to see if that resolves the issue. If not, I think this is an issue worthy of a support request to your cPanel Licensing Provider so they can go in and figure out what's going on.

Thanks. As far as I know, I have root access, but I don't know how to "run" anything yet.

I'm a designer and I don't know too much about the hosting end of things yet, but as a new hosting provider, I better learn this stuff soon.

I appreciate your help.

Where do I find the "Branding Editor" referred to in the previous post? When I login to my cpanel all I see is the following categories: E-Mail, FTP, Web/FTP Stats, Site Management, CGI Scripts, Subdomain, Advanced, Network Tools, Files, Databases, Pro and it's not listed under any of them. Am I misunderstanding where to look?

Branding does not "stick" in cPanel 11 - this is a huge bug and cPanel is aware of it - whether they are doing anything about it, remains to be seen.

TnMountainMan:

Having just figured this out, make sure you are not logged in as "root" to your WHM but to the actual Reseller Account for your hosting service. I too was trying to modify the root account's styles but found that since all of my accounts that I host (non-Reseller) are set to be "owned" by the Reseller Account I set-up for my hosting, I had to change the styles in my own Reseller WHM.

Hope that helps!

Cheers!
James

Note you must be logged into a reseller account in the cPanel interface to see "Branding Editor" in the "Preferences" section of the cPanel interface.

Additionally, cPanel 11 and use of the X3 interface is also required. You cannot do this in cPanel 10 nor with X or X2.
