[Resolved] Logo missing since update

[Joel]

Since updating to 4.5.2 and gp to the latest version the logo on the header is gone.
I tried to delete and re add on the customizer but it’s still not there.
Any suggestions? Here is the site http://www.barsons.com

Thanks

[Tom]

Hi there,

Are you using any custom function (specifically generate_head_items())?

[Joel]

Yes from one of my previous posts here:

<?php
/*
Plugin Name: move widgets in header
Plugin URI:
Description: Used to move widgets in generatepress header
Version:
Author:
Author URI:
License:
License URI:
*/

if ( ! function_exists( ‘generate_header_items’ ) ) :
/**
* Build the header
*
* Wrapping this into a function allows us to customize the order in a child theme
*
* @since 1.2.9.7
*/
function generate_header_items()
{
$generate_settings = wp_parse_args(
get_option( ‘generate_settings’, array() ),
generate_get_defaults()
);

// Get the title and tagline
$title = get_bloginfo( ‘title’ );
$tagline = get_bloginfo( ‘description’ );

// If the disable title checkbox is checked, or the title field is empty, return true
$disable_title = ( ‘1’ == $generate_settings[ ‘hide_title’ ] || ” == $title ) ? true : false;

// If the disable tagline checkbox is checked, or the tagline field is empty, return true
$disable_tagline = ( ‘1’ == $generate_settings[ ‘hide_tagline’ ] || ” == $tagline ) ? true : false;

// Site title and tagline
if ( false == $disable_title || false == $disable_tagline ) : ?>

<?php if ( false == $disable_title ) : ?>
<p class=”main-title” itemprop=”headline”>” title=”<?php echo esc_attr( get_bloginfo( ‘name’, ‘display’ ) ); ?>” rel=”home”><?php bloginfo( ‘name’ ); ?></p>
<?php endif;

if ( false == $disable_tagline ) : ?>
<p class=”site-description”><?php echo html_entity_decode( bloginfo( ‘description’ ) ); ?></p>
<?php endif; ?>

<?php endif;

// Site logo
if ( ! empty( $generate_settings[‘logo’] ) ) : ?>

” title=”<?php echo esc_attr( get_bloginfo( ‘name’, ‘display’ ) ); ?>” rel=”home”>” alt=”<?php echo esc_attr( get_bloginfo( ‘name’, ‘display’ ) ); ?>” title=”<?php echo esc_attr( get_bloginfo( ‘name’, ‘display’ ) ); ?>” />

<?php endif;

// Header widget
if ( is_active_sidebar(‘header’) ) : ?>

<?php dynamic_sidebar( ‘header’ ); ?>

<?php endif;
}
endif;

[Tom]

Instead of that, use this:

if ( ! function_exists( 'generate_header_items' ) ) :
/**
 * Build the header
 *
 * Wrapping this into a function allows us to customize the order
 *
 * @since 1.2.9.7
 */
function generate_header_items() 
{
	// Site title and tagline
	generate_construct_site_title();

	// Site logo
	generate_construct_logo();

	// Header widget
	generate_construct_header_widget();
}
endif;

[Joel]

Thanks that worked.

Hi Tom,

Piggybacking on the OP’s post as I have the same issue of the logo gone after updating to WP 4.5.2.

I tried your suggestion and pasted it to the child functions.php but no luck. The site is still in my local drive only so I can’t link to it. I don’t have any custom functions pertaining to generate_head_items() other than the code you have above.

Any other recommendations I can try?

[Florencio]

I forgot to mention that the logo shows when I use the “parent” GeneratePress theme.

Thanks.

[Tom]

If you go into “Customize > Site Identity”, is the logo set?

If the logo shows when you use the parent theme, something in your child theme is messing it up. What do you have in your functions.php file?

[Florencio]

Here’s the functions.php in the child theme:

<?php
add_action( ‘wp_enqueue_scripts’, ‘theme_enqueue_styles’ );
function theme_enqueue_styles() {
wp_enqueue_style( ‘parent-style’, get_template_directory_uri() . ‘/wp-content/themes/generatepress/style.css’ );
wp_enqueue_style( ‘child-style’,
get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . ‘/wp-content/themes/generatepress-child/style.css’,
array(‘parent-style’)
);
}

//Remove Media Library Tab
function remove_medialibrary_tab($tabs) {
if ( !current_user_can( ‘administrator’ ) ) {
unset($tabs[‘library’]);
return $tabs;
}
else
{
return $tabs;
}
}
add_filter(‘media_upload_tabs’,’remove_medialibrary_tab’);

//Add login-logout to nav
if( ! function_exists( ‘add_loginout_to_menu’ ) ) {
function add_loginout_to_menu( $items, $args ){
//Nav location in your theme. In this case, primary nav. Adjust accordingly.
if( is_admin() || $args->theme_location != ‘primary’ )
return $items;
if( is_user_logged_in( ) ) {
$link = ‘‘ . __( ‘Logout’ ) . ‘‘;
}
else $link = ‘‘ . __( ‘Login’ ) . ‘‘;
return $items.= ‘<li id=”loginout-link” class=”menu-item menu-type-link”>’. $link . ‘‘;
}
}
add_filter( ‘wp_nav_menu_items’, ‘add_loginout_to_menu’, 10, 2 );
?>

Get rid of this:

add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'theme_enqueue_styles' );
function theme_enqueue_styles() {
    wp_enqueue_style( 'parent-style', get_template_directory_uri() . '/wp-content/themes/generatepress/style.css' );
    wp_enqueue_style( 'child-style',
get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/wp-content/themes/generatepress-child/style.css',
array(‘parent-style’)
);
}

GP does that for you.

Do you have any template files added to your child theme? header.php specifically?

[Florencio]

Yup – I had a header.php that was the culprit. Deleted it and the logo’s back. Positioning’s wrong though but I think I can figure out a way to align them in the center again. (It’s weird; the logo’s aligned left while the title and tag line is center aligned.)

Thank you, Tom! As always you’re quick to respond and spot-on!

[Tom]

Glad I could help 🙂

Does “Customize > Layout > Header alignment” not work for the alignment?

[Florencio]

That and fixing the CSS did the trick.

Thanks again, Tom!

[Tom]

You’re welcome 🙂
