add a custom logo?
Added by Patricio Lopez over 14 years ago
Hello
I've been using redmine for a while and it's great, but 2 things come to my mind recently:
1º Can i add a jpg/png logo instead of the "title application"? (top left corner where the word Redmine appears here for example)
2º is there a way to put a favicon?
Thanks a lot for your time.

- change the view
/app/views/layouts/base.rhtml
- or create a new theme and add the logo via CSS (which would be the prefered solution to ease updates)
2º is there a way to put a favicon?
You can either replace the stock favicon in public/favicon.ico
or use my favicon plugin and include the favicon in your theme.

Hello Holger,
Hello Patricio,
I added a Logo to the base.rthml as instructed in HowTo_add_a_logo_to_your_Redmine_banner. Changing a few things, my code reads:
<!--<h1><_%= page_header_title %></h1>-->
<img alt="HWK Logo" id="HWK Logo" src="/images/hwklogo.png" />
Unfortunately the logo.png is not rendered (neither IE or FF). The <alt> tag is displayed. I have tried all kind of file references, but nothing made it work. I also tried using a image coming with the installation, again no luck. I restarted the apache services with every change. Are the any special attributes such as size to be considered for the png file? Are the any special steps importing a picture file or referencing it in <src>?
I run redmine 1.0.0. (the Bitnami Stack) on a W2K3 environment.
I hope you can give me some advice or hint to the right direction.

Helpfully for other redmine users will be to explain also what was your issue and not a simple "forget it" because on google search they will reach this post and your "forget it".
Thank you, Ionut

Old post, but I was looking to add a logo too!
His error is possibly in not following the instructions fully. The correct line from the wiki is:
<img src="<%= Redmine::Utils.relative_url_root %>/images/logo.png" style="margin-top: 15px; margin-left: 15px;"/>which works because it uses the Utils function to properly generate the path to the image.
The OP's hard coded path is not necessarily correct at run time.
