Forum:How to set the wiki's logo
- Forums: Index > Community help
I've searched everywhere, but I cannot find how to set the logo for my wiki.
Any and all help gratefully received.

- Hi Kontax, the Help:Logo page has some more info on uploading logos, although it's a tad bit outdated.
- To upload a new logo for the Aurora skin (the dark skin used on this wiki, among many other ShoutWiki wikis), upload the file as
Aurora-skin-logo.png
via the Special:Upload page on your wiki. The logo image can be up to 75px tall, and no more than 400px wide. --Jack Phoenix (Contact) 01:22, 1 February 2014 (UTC)
Thanks for the reply!
OK, so it all depends on the file name? Or am I wrong? If not, what about the MonoBook skin?
And I disagree with your comment "tad bit outdated". ;)

- You're right, it depends on the file name. MonoBook, Monaco, Nimbus and Vector use the same logo — a file called
Wiki.png
. Like the help page notes, this logo file should be around 150 x 150 pixels in size. Monaco's logo can be a bit wider, but it should be noted that then it won't look as good on the other three skins. --Jack Phoenix (Contact) 14:28, 1 February 2014 (UTC)
OK, Thanks for your time. Much appreciated!

I keep re-uploading my private wiki's File:Wiki.png over and over again, but the file remains the same, and its history claims that the most recent version uploaded was actually the default ShoutWiki logo, until I upload another version: that version is said to be the ShoutWiki logo, while the earlier one is the actual logo that I had uploaded. This problem has occurred repeatedly, and I don't know how I'm supposed to fix it. --The3vilbanana (talk) 22:17, 14 September 2017 (UTC)
