[Support request] Logo size issue

[David]

EDIT: this issue was after using webp image using imagify extension. Why is it impossible to resize logo when it’s webp ?

Hello,

By the past everything was working well but now (after update) I have a too big logo.
I’m using a 758×238 logo I resize using wordpress theme editor (thus GeneratePress theme) in site identity section.
From now logo resizing doesn’t work, I move the cursor but the size doesn’t change.

When I chose the logo if I crop it (to the maximum size cause I want it all) I’m able to resize it in the tool but it doesn’t show in the website as it does in the editor.

What is happening ? Please answer fast

Hi there,

this issue was after using webp image using imagify extension. Why is it impossible to resize logo when it’s webp ?

I’m not sure unfortunately.

My recommendation would be to use an SVG file for the logo image. It usually works the best.

We had this issue on a few sites recently after logo .jpg images were swapped to .webp format.

I initially suspected a conflict between the host’s (BionicWP) native caching solution and WP Rocket which was installed by someone else on the team.

My initial suggestion – based on Leo’s suggestion – was try to replace the .webp logo with a .jpg image. But they had contacted BionicWP in the meantime.

Here is what BionicWP had to say:

This is not a plugin conflict. We are now using a new and improved algorithm to filter unused CSS and to make pages even lighter and faster than before. The filtered CSS required some basic CSS to be defined for elements and this is why the logo was enormously large. A simple line of CSS code has fixed the issue.

This was their CSS fix:

.site-header .header-image {display:block;}

Not sure if this helps anyone, but GP devs may want to possibly include this CSS in a future release to avoid this issue on similar environments.

All the best,
Paul

The posted CSS fix worked for me, too. Using Imagify’s option to “Display images in WebP format on the site” made my site logo too large.

Glad to hear 🙂
