Hi, I am a retired former manager (not coder) of websites who created this very basic WP site several years ago for my musician daughter: http://www.cipherdom.com. I made a child of the Euphony Pro theme and kept customizations very simple. It’s all my work, for better or worse!
She needs some minor tweaks, the first I tried was to replace the hero background photo, which appears only on the home page. The Customize Theme tool let me upload and select the new photo, but it never actually replaces the original one. The new one shows up in the thumbnail under Customizing Background Image, but the large preview to the right of that never changes even after I publish the edit. The new photo also never shows up on the live site, obviously.
Could anyone help? And thanks so much in advance.

Can you please update the theme to the latest version and check if the issue gets resolved. If you are still having the same issue after updating the theme to the latest version please let me know.

My existing child seems okay (nothing broke in the update), but the same issue exists because the background image won’t change after I upload the new image and publish. This is how it looks in the WP theme editor (the old photo is blue dress; new photo I want to use is brown coat): https://drive.google.com/file/d/1w3Zi2kvxqgJu26nVan3fgdGozHWORrhZ/view?usp=sharing
TIA for any advice.

Under Header Image : select the desired image and save your changes. Let me know if this helps you out.Regards,
TikaramJanuary 16, 2024 at 3:00 am #331603Thomas GarritanoParticipantThat did it! Thanks very much, Tikaram.
