The Media Maven theme is a very clean and straight up blog theme. Inspired in part by the design of Apple.com, Media Maven has all the usual features you would expect from one of our WP themes including support for custom menus and widgets etc.
I really like this theme, except I would like to be able to do a custom header and I can’t seem to find any way to do this. Is there a way to customize the header besides just adding text? Even if the font could be changed would be nice, but I would like to add a custom logo to my site.
Hi Suzanne, where are you thinking of placing the custom logo? Note, the theme is a responsive theme so your changes should also be able to adapt to changing screen sizes.
I love the theme but don’t particularly like the plain text font which comes with the template. What I would like is to be able to add a customer header or logo. Maybe I am missing something in the editing template to be able to do this.
NOTE: best practice way is to do your theme modifications via a child theme. This makes it so that any updates to the theme does not overwrite the changes you’ve made to the theme. Here are a couple resources for making child themes:

Hi, it still hasn’t been reviewed by WordPress.org, but it is now available for download from the site.
Hello. Do you have a translation of this theme in Russian and/or Ukrainian? If not, then I can help with the translation.
Hi Alex, no we don’t have Russian or Ukranian translations. If you do a translations I’d be happy to give you credit here on the theme page.

Hi Suzanne,
Open up the
header.phpfile in the theme and look for this line of code:<h1 id="site-title"><a href="<?php echo home_url( '/' ); ?>" title="<?php echo esc_attr( get_bloginfo( 'name', 'display' ) ); ?>" rel="home"><?php bloginfo( 'name' ); ?></a></h1>It should be somewhere in the middle.
Then change it to something like this:
<h1 id="site-title"><a href="<?php echo home_url( '/' ); ?>" title="<?php echo esc_attr( get_bloginfo( 'name', 'display' ) ); ?>" rel="home"><img src="URL TO YOUR LOGO IMAGE" alt="Logo"></a></h1>where the url to your logo image will look like this:
