Need help in altering/modying and understanding the theme

[raghavsikaria]

Hello fellow contributors! Thank you so much for coming up with a great theme.

I am new to this system and wanted to understand a few things. If this not the right forum to query here, please accept my apologies and guide me to the right one.

• I want to know how I can replace the color background/texture of header with an image

• To go about modifying the HTML layout in general

• To give the creators credit as and when I take my page live

Also, please do let me know about the correct platform so that I can go there in future for queries pertaning to this.

Thanks.

For your use case, it would be better to fork the repo and change it to create your site

• If you don't want one of the already defined textures, you can create a new one. First, you add it here

texture:
  ...
  style: custom

And then you can add some css here
https://github.com/thelehhman/texture/blob/0df7b010b93bf5ca4ea2de4dbe83f64ac40bf30b/assets/css/style.scss#L55
For example,

.texture-custom {
    background-image: url(path to my image)
}

• You can modify the files in the _layouts folder, its like html but enhanced using liquid templating
• A small line in the footer would do :)
