Is there any way to have one section of the catalog have a different company logo displayed than appears in other sections?

Hosting 2 URLs in one catalog and it would be a big selling point if we could figure out how to do this.

All help appreciated.

Just use a different Act_Primary.html for each of the sections.

Gary:

Thank you...thank you...thank you.

Sometimes the answer is so simple...when you understand what you're dealing with and doing.

Of course, when you open Act_Primary you need to know what to change...I see the NETQUOTEVAR: LogoImage but don't know what change to make.

Gary...can you lead me through it?

Thanks again.

Go into 'Design | Options | Layouts' and click 'Edit' next to the 'Default Overall Layout' field.

Save the file as Act_Primary2.html.

Replace NETQUOTEVAR:LOGOIMAGE with HTML code for the other image you want to include.

Save the file.

Now go into the sections that you want to use this file, and select it in the 'Overall Layout' field in the 'Layout' tab.

Thanks Chris...

Worked like a charm...or "a treat" as it seems to be on your side of the pond.

Ooops. Got to this one a bit late but you might like to see a simpler solution.


Create a Custom Variable called SECTIONLOGO.
In Design / Options / Site defaults set it to contain the HTML for your standard image e.g. <img src=mylogo.jpg .....> (if using business uncheck Searchable and check Use as Customvar).
In your Act_Primary.html replace NETQUOTEVAR:LOGOIMAGE with CUSTOMVAR:SECTIONLOGO

Now in each section you want a different logo for, double-click the section, and change the text to contain the HTML for your alternate image e.g. <img src=mylogo.jpg .....> (if using business uncheck Searchable and check Use as Customvar).

Thanks Norman...

When I need a third logo displayed I'll give that a try. It's working right now using Chris' suggestion so If It Ain't Broke...

Sounds like a way to go though when you want distinct logos on different sections.

Always appreciate your help.
