This code enables you to add a full width header image to your blog page. You can set a default in the code which uses a image named default.jpg from your child themes images folder. You c an then upload, select from media library or change your image via the customizer.
Let’s take a look at the following video to see how this solution works on smaller screens when the responsive mobile menu is used :
Note : The solution demonstrated in the above video uses the after header menu option which works perfectly fine with a full width header image. However, the solution may not work the same when using a custom menu widget in the header right widget area therefore its recommended to use the after header menu selection. Tested using the Genesis Sample child theme by StudioPress.
