this little functions.php hack makes me all giddy… use this to rebrand your WordPress back-end with your own logo: //hook the administrative header output add_action(‘admin_head’, ‘my_custom_logo’); function my_custom_logo() { echo ‘ <style type=”text/css”> #header-logo { background-image: url(‘.get_bloginfo(‘template_directory’).’/images/custom-logo.gif) !important; } </style> ‘; } and here’s what it would look like in action: by default, the WP […]
