Hello I want to change the image of the background of the pages on a WordPress site to different images per page. I can see the URL of the images if I inspect the page on Google chrome but I noticed that they are been dynamically fed in to the page from somewhere (I think that should be the database) so pls which table can I find this URL in the database

By Header image I believe you mean the logo? If yes/no, the said image should be in your Wordpress media repository (library). You might want to upload your own image to the library first before removing the previous. That said, the theme's documentation is like a manual. You should look it up when you have difficulties.

Double Post.

You can't use different header images on pages.

No, not the logo. The Image is being used as a backgroud for the header section of the pages.

It is a background image that is been fed into a CSS on the pages. How I knew is I views the source code of the pages on Google chrome

What theme is that?

Well, not to waste time, the below should for you:


1. Look for the code that exists in the <div id="header"> and <div id="logo"> and (in the following image) <div id="splash"> HTML tags (I believe you have done this already).

2. There you will most likely find the URL path to where the header image is hosted, something like this: http://www.domain-name/wp-content/themes/theme-name/images/image-name.jpg

3. You might need to head to your CPANEL/file manager and go into your root folder. You need to log in to the file manager and click down into a path similar to the one where the header image is located, something like “/home/userdirectory/public_html/wp-content/themes/theme-name/images/image-name.jpg”.

4. Right-click on the existing header image file and rename it to something like “image-name-old.jpg.”
PS: DON'T DELETE IT JUST YET!

5. Upload the new header image to that specific directory. Make sure that the new image file name is exactly that of the old image file name.

6. Clear your browser cache and reload your site's homepage.

I believe this should settle it.

It's a major hack bro. Not something a DIY can engage in.

Well I appreciate that, but leave the programming to me, all I just need to know is where those pages are being populated from, the file structure and other thing to look out for in the database, because I know that for each page to have different background image then it must be fetching from somewhere

I just checked. You should follow my initial steps to fix this. However, if you are not too certain on what to do, just send me a PM. I might need your Cpanel details to fix this. You can go ahead and change your login details afterwards.

Note: It is FREE.

I understand that method you are talking about. The issue I have now is I have up to 5 pages with the same background but all the pages needs to have different images. If I do that method you said, It will affect the whole pages. What I want is all the 5pages to have different URL background image. Initially what I did when creating the pages was to do copy and paste with the hope of changing the image when I finally get them

Oh! With this, you might need to raise a ticket with the support of the theme on Themeforest to have them guide you.

d function which wordpress uses for setting header image is - header_image()

look for it in the header and replace it with your own codes

I finally did it now, after series of rigorous thinking, In fact I kept thinking about it while in church today. After much thinking I was able to find out that the images all have unique ID, it is this ID that needs to be entered into the pages shotcode. This will change the background image of the header.

The next question was how to find the image ID, since I already narrowed what I think the solution could be, i went straight to Google to search how to find image ID in WP, i didn't even know it was just a simple mouseover will show the ID at the base of the browser. I got the ID, inserted it into the page shotcode and Viola.. It worked.

Dont mess with a programmer next time

Thanks to everyone, especially sanchez01
