Helix Ultimate: custom header shows up with a strange name in the user interface

Asked by Peter Vukovic 3 years ago Last activity 3 years ago

Hi, I created a custom header using the custom file option. I named my folder "WSG-Header" instead "Custom header" as I assume the theme will pick up anything from the headers folder, which it did.

However, my header shows up with a strange name when I go to template settings > Basic > Header:

Expected Name:
"WSG Header"

Actual Name:
HELIX_ULTIMATE_HEADER_STYLE_W_S_G-_HEADER

In big short, you have to override language phrase (displayed BIG LETTERS under .svg img) with custom name using Joomla Languages Overrides (3 picture) for both views (locations).

Is now all clear? I hope so.

Hi there!

Sorry to hear that.

Would you please give me your admin access to check? Although we do not provide customization support. Let me check...

Best Regards

Peter, If I may....

That field may not support language phrases or you made small mistake in code or something was changed since I done it last time.

Besides php custom changes are beyond classic support.

Hi Paul,

thanks for the reply. Here is what I did:

  1. Created a folder called WSG-Header
  2. Copied a header file from 1-MinimalHeader folder
  3. Started editing the file

Is there a header name I need to define somewhere in the code itself?

From what I see, the header name is generated from the folder name. And whatever name I give to the folder, I always end up with this in the UI:

HELIX_ULTIMATE_HEADER_STYLE_FOLDER_NAME

Thanks

I played with that some time ago so I may not remember all but as folder name try to use: "WSG-Header" or "wsg-header" or "10-wsg-header" or "style-3" - one of them should help.
