When you open the page to login to your WordPress admin panel, you can see the WordPress default logo above the form.
What would you do if you want to change WordPress login logo? And the main thing is that nowadays, people are avoiding plugins.
So in this article, you will learn the procedure to replace the default login logo with your own picture without any plugin.
Let me Provide You The Guide To Change WordPress Login Logo.
As you all know, one of the most important files in WordPress is the functions.php file. You have to edit this file. If you know a little bit about the WordPress theme files then functions.php file is the master file.
Just open cPanel>>file-manager>>wp-content.php>>themes>>themename>>functions.php and open to edit it.
You can also edit this file after logging in to the WordPress admin panel. Just go to appearance>>editor>>functions.php.
Let me show the code to place.
echo ‘<style type=”text/css”>
h1 a {background-image: url(‘.get_bloginfo(‘template_directory’).’/images/RaviChahar.JPG) !important; }
</style>’;
}
add_action(‘login_head’, ‘your_login_logo’);
Save the file and check the image.
NOTE:- Here I have added the file name as “RaviChahar.JPG“. Make sure that you replace it with the name of your file followed by its extension.
If your theme doesn’t contain any folder named “images” then create it and then add the image you want to show on the WordPress login page.
Let me show you the output.
Sometimes, people just copy and paste the code and get an error. You should know how to add custom code in WordPress properly.
