Hey there,

Is there any way to use the text-type widget/short-code as a website logo?
Would work very well for the website I’m currently working on.

Many Thanks,

Matthew

Hello There,

Thanks for writing in! What you are trying to accomplish requires a template customization, we would like to suggest that you use a child theme. This allows you to make code changes that won’t be overwritten when an X update is released. After your child theme is setup, please review how we recommend making template changes in Customization Best Practices.

Once you have your child theme active and ready, please follow the following steps below:
1] Using Notepad or TextEdit or Sublime Text or any text editor, please create a new file in your local machine.
2] Insert the following code into that new file

<?php

// =============================================================================
// VIEWS/GLOBAL/_BRAND.PHP
// -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
// Outputs the brand.
// =============================================================================

$site_name        = '[x_text_type prefix="This is the " strings="' . get_bloginfo( 'name' ) . '" suffix=" of the sentence." tag="h3" type_speed="50" start_delay="0" back_speed="50" back_delay="3000" loop="false" show_cursor="true" cursor="|" looks_like="h3"]';
$site_description = get_bloginfo( 'description' );
$logo             = x_make_protocol_relative( x_get_option( 'x_logo' ) );
$site_logo        = '<img src="' . $logo . '" alt="' . $site_description . '">';

?>

<?php echo '<h1 class="visually-hidden">' . $site_name . '</h1>'; ?>

<a href="<?php echo home_url( '/' ); ?>" class="<?php x_brand_class(); ?>" title="<?php echo $site_description; ?>">
  <?php echo ( $logo == '' ) ? $site_name : $site_logo; 

  ?>
</a>

Feel free to change the prefix and suffix.

3] Save the file named as _brand.php
4] Upload this file to your server in the child theme’s folder
wp-content/themes/x-child/framework/views/global/

We would loved to know if this has work for you. Thank you.
