How can I display my logo on my DokuWiki's title?

Question

I have a DokuWiki and I'd like to place a logo on the title bar at the top of the page? How can I do this? Note that I am not referring to the title bar at the top of the browser, but rather the title bar on the website itself.

I tried inserting the DokuWiki syntax: {{public:logo.jpg?100x100}}, but this simply rendered as plain text and not an image.

Is it possible to put an image in the page title?

Answer 1

Easy: Rename your logo as "logo.png" and place it into :wiki namespace. It will show automatically.

This solution works on template "dokuwiki" (default one on dokuwiki old stable version "Adora Belle" and in current one "Weatherwax"):

Deeper:

We can look at tpl_header.php file, lines 21&23:

// get logo either out of the template images folder or data/media folder

[...]

$logo = tpl_getMediaFile(array(':wiki:logo.png', 'images/logo.png'), false, $logoSize);

Ok: tpl_getMediaFile() function will look for a file logo.png in media namespace called wiki.

So I go to dokuwiki File Manager and I upload my logo.png file on wiki namespace. I refresh page and I smile.

Hope That Helps

In modern versions of DokuWiki you don't have to make your own template. Simply upload a file called logo.png to the wiki or root namespace in the DokuWiki Media Manager.

This is the line of template code that gets the logo: https://github.com/splitbrain/dokuwiki/blob/master/lib/tpl/dokuwiki/tpl_header.php#L23

You can tell that it is first checking logo.png in the wiki namespace with :wiki:logo.png and then logo.png in the root namespace with :logo.png.

If it doesn't find either, it falls back on images/logo.png, which is the default logo.

Answer 3

(for latest versions of Dokuwiki)

You should create your own template, and do whatever hack you need to do.

It is located in lib/tpl/

Just copy the default directory with your own name (this will be available in the admin area later), something like "company", and edit:

  <div class="pagename">
    <img src="<?php echo DOKU_TPL; ?>images/logo.png" align="absmiddle"/>
    [[<?php tpl_link(wl($ID,'do=backlink'),tpl_pagetitle($ID,true),'title="'.$lang['btn_backlink'].'"')?>]]
  </div>

You can build the HTML as you like... but the example above works just fine (the image is located in the lib/tpl/company/images/)

You can then change the template of your Wiki by updating the configuration at: Admin > configuration manager > template
