For some reason I cannot get the logo tool to wrok. I'm sure its something simple. I've enabled the module, I've put logos in my logo file. But no matter what I do my logo remains untouched.

Suggestions?

Some of the themes seem to not carry logos ( eg Channel Nine ) . Also clearing your personal cache can make a difference.

Hello;

Just recently installed the Logo Tool module, and am sold on the concept (esp. because my client asked for the feature)…

My issue is that I’m unable to view the logos I placed in the modules/contrib/logotool/logos folder. I’ve set the directory and all the files to read CHMOD 777 so the server being able to access the files should be ruled out.

My reckoning is that I have everything pointing to the wrong path to the files. So my question is where I’ve gone wrong. Here’s what I have:

Path to default/ main logo:
/home/media911/public_html/drupal-4.7.2/modules/contrib/logotool/logos/default

Path to your logos folder:
/home/media911/public_html/drupal-4.7.2/modules/contrib/logotool/logos

Display mode:
Random logos

Specific logos for specific pages:
Blank

And here’s what I have my themes settings set to:

Path to custom logo:
logotool/logo

Upload logo image:
Q – Should I upload a custom logo image or leave it blank? I tried to upload aa logo manually, and I could see the file, so I guess the files can be read.

Yikes, and I have a deadline, so I’m almost at the point of loosing sleep!!! Hope this helps. Thanks for reading this…

Yes, what you described is exactly the problem I'm having too! I have the files in all the correct folder, the images files are being read but the actual image is not being generated. All I get is the annoying red x in the little box when I try to use the logotool to see where the image files are.

Sorry, I don't have an answer to help you because your problem sounds like the same as mine. If you find a solution to teh problem, let me know!!

I was having the same problem, and it turned out to be a silly oversight. I had failed to uncheck the "use the default logo" box in the the theme configuration.

I hope you have been as silly, since this was really easy to fix...

I was banging my head against the wall trying to figure out what I had done in implementing this one... turns out it was a .htaccess issue. I had an old .htaccess file in the root of my site while I was developing the drupal site... once i replaced it with the .htaccess file that drupal created upon install... voila: logotools works!

Nice work pobster... this adds quite a bit to the drupal design, which, as with most cms's, can look too vanilla. Now, if only i could get both graphics and text (next to each other) in my primary links in a module... voila.. we start having some kicking design opportunities...

for you lot that were having difficulties and have tried everything at least 4x, look at the .htacesss and ensure its the one drupal generated.
