different logo each main category + subcategories

Hi there,

So are there only 6 parent categories which different logos, then 500 sub-categories that should inherit the parent logo?

Let me know :)

Hi Tom

Yes the parent logo of the particular main category should be set for its subcategories

Thanks
Tim

You may be better off using a function in this case instead of Elements.

Will these logos apply to all posts within these categories, and the category archives themselves? Or just the archives?

The logic is likely going to be somewhat complicated, so trying to get a clear picture.

Thanks!

Hi Tom

It will apply only for archive categories as products may appear in different categories.

So for home, product, cart, checkout and normal pages the normal logo should be shown (with 6 dots)

Thanks
Tim

Let's give it a shot:

add_filter( 'generate_logo', function( $url ) {
    $category = get_queried_object();
    $category_id = isset( $category->term_id ) ? $category->term_id : '';

    if ( is_category( 123 ) || term_is_ancestor_of( 123, $category_id, 'product_cat' ) ) {
        $url = 'URL TO LOGO FOR CATEGORY ID 123 OR CHILDREN';
    }

    if ( is_category( 456 ) || term_is_ancestor_of( 456, $category_id, 'product_cat' ) ) {
        $url = 'URL TO LOGO FOR CATEGORY ID 456 OR CHILDREN';
    }

    if ( is_category( 789 ) || term_is_ancestor_of( 789, $category_id, 'product_cat' ) ) {
        $url = 'URL TO LOGO FOR CATEGORY ID 789 OR CHILDREN';
    }

    // And so on..

    return $url;
} );

Hi tom,

thanks for this!

it does not work yet. i did this to test, but nothing happens to the subcategories of this main category:

https://www.degros.nl/product-categorie/pedicure-groothandel/

add_filter( 'generate_logo', function( $url ) {
$category = get_queried_object();
$category_id = isset( $category->term_id ) ? $category->term_id : '';

if ( is_category( 311 ) || cat_is_ancestor_of( 311, $category_id ) ) {
$url = 'https://www.degros.nl/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/groep-9.svg';
}

return $url;
} );

Ah, just updated the code above to work with product categories: https://generatepress.com/forums/topic/different-logo-each-main-category-subcategories/#post-1276995

Works like a charm!

Thanks Tom, much appreciated!

hi tom one question, sorry. it does not work for mobile correct? we use mobile header

Hi there,

you would need to create another function like Tom provided but using this filter:
