Creating custom header

[truthia1]

Can I create my own header, and replace/integrate it with the current one? If so, how so?

Hello Truthia,

You can do it, provided you have some knowledge of CSS.

The global.css file in your themes folder is the key file.

Use firefox and web developer tools to figure out which element refers to which CSS style.

Secondly, you can enable/disable the top block modules from the back office.

Yes, its pretty easy to do it once you get a hang of it.

And hey, a friendly community is always here, if you run into difficulties.

We are just a post away.

Cheers..

Hi Cronos,

Do we have to disable the top block modules in order for our header to work?

I ask because couldn't we just keep the top block modules and just put them lower in the page?

Cheers and thanks!

Hi BabyMojo,

You can do either, depends on how you want your theme to be.

You can disable the top block modules and create an header.

Otherwise, you can reposition them from the back office to the left, right or center block depending on where you want them to be.

There are quite a lot of possibilities to ponder on.

Cheers and good luck..

Hi Truthia

if you like to use the standard header you should enable it and you have than the possibility to change the look and feel in the global.css as Cronos already wrote.

what exactly do you want to change?

Thanks for the advice and support Cronos, I heard you'll be trying to make a guidebook for Prestashop? Can't wait!
