Make quickstart site logo images obvious (that they aren't native text)

AndrewSmith

Hi there,

I've just spent ages on a quickstart for JA Blockk install looking to where there might be a special custom module or something that was causing the site name to still display as "Blockk" despite changing it in the usual places. It drove me nuts. Eventually I had the good fortune to discover that it was an image of text, and therefore the image needed to be replaced.

My suggestion: if you are going to have an image file for something that looks like text (especially with webfonts these days), then at least have something else in there so it's obvious that it is an image.

Hi
The logo settings are present under Site configuration > Logo Settings. In Logo settings.
There can be different template style on your site. So you need to change logo for each style.
We do have documentation for it here https://www.joomlart.com/documentation/joomla-templates/ja-blockk#config

My point is that the logo (images) look like they are native text.

Hi
This depends on the type of logo and font style. Both changes will be done via Logo option only.

AndrewSmith

I think you guys are missing the point.

Yes, the logo can be set by the 'logo option' in the template interface. My issue is that the image that is used can be mistaken for native text and a lot of time gets wasted to finally discover that this wasn't the case. You may already know that it was an image file displaying there, but that doesn't mean others already know that.

Hi
That is by template design. If the logo is changed from correct settings it will not make any confusion.
The first step that need to be take to change logo is navigate to logo settings.

I give up.

Hi
This is not a bug or issue, it just way of think. The text types also logo. Since it design of the template it would not change. But there is always simple option to use logo as image or text.

People won't initially realise that what they are seeing (as text) is an image file.

If you tweak it per the attached so that it is obvious it is an image you are looking at instead of text, it would be a great help.

Hi
I understand but this would not possible to make change in core product as its already released and many community members using the template.

AndrewSmith

Ninja Don't make a change to the core product. Just modify the sample data, in this case the image that looks like native text.

Hi
Again you need to understand this is not a bug, just a point of thinking without checking the logo settings.
I am afraid such request can not be changed when there is nothing to fix.

Hope its clear now.
