Edit the file unb_lib/designs/.../config.php and set your image URL in the field $UNB['Image']['toplogo']. If you didn't change anything, you'll probably want to go to the modern directory for "...".

I've tried to delete the logo_unb_dark.png and upload a new file with the same name. Then i started my board new => old logo is there... i'll try your way now.

Now it works. I've changed the name of favicon.ico and then uploaded a new one (favicon.gif). Then i changed the parameter in config.php with absolute urls.

You know that your browser caches files? Try hitting the F5 key (Reload Page) to see changes. If that doesn't help, try Control+F5. Then you really get the latest version of your files. If you replace the file with the same name, your browser may not notice that for some time.

@Yves

You should add a modification which will allow Admin's to change logo right from Admin CP

Overall I love UNB its so easy to intergrade into a website ^^
..........................
by the way you should remove the system version from footer as this is a security issue it would be neat if admins could only see it but not users... as some one can just go here and find security holes and bamm.. done

-sorry for going off topic ^^

FUD, security by obscurity is no way out as you can see in any closed source project...

In fact, showing the version number helps because anyone can inform you that your site is vulnerable.

In reply to post #7
Changing the site logo is a source code/design modification and requires a lot of file editing anyway. Changing the logo is only the very first step of the whole customisation process which takes you through a bunch of CSS and template files. Why should there be an option at the front-end only for the logo, for those who can't edit design source files? This doesn't seem logical to me.

You can remove the version number from the corresponding template file with ease. You may even remove the UNB copyright notice if you want. (See the FAQ for details on that.) Those who intend to exploit security issues won't check an advertised version number or even take the effort to extract it from the HTML, they just try and go. The usually find their targets through distinct URLs with a search engine like e.g. Google.
