Quark OP - cannot use custom logo.svg using child theme

Hi everyone. Hoping for help…

My goal is to have a custom svg logo, with changes made only to mytheme, and for it to colour invert on scroll, just like the default Grav logo.

Setup: Fresh download of Grav and Quark Open Publishing. Running locally on Linux.

Attempted so far: Changing mytheme.yaml
Using this instruction here: Quark: Using SVG as custom logo …I have been unable to change from default grav logo located in quark/images/grav-logo.svg

This appears to be because the first “if” statement fails and only the “elseif” statement is read. I can tell this by inserting text after the statements as they render onto the page to tell me what is happening.

Notes:

  • Working with a fresh install and skeleton of Quark OP - and am making changes to MyTheme only
  • I have a new logo.svg located in mytheme/images/logo and a copy of it in mytheme/images as well, just in case. I’ve also tried using the default logo, but the issue appears to be elsewhere
  • I have not set a logo in the admin backend as it just inserts an
  • I tried adding a logo variable to mytheme.yaml as suggested elsewhere in forum, but it seemed to be a png specific thing and had no effect on issue

Thank you all so much

Perhaps, this helps (it’s in german, let google translate):

and/or copy the file themes/quark/templates/partials/logo.html.twig to themes/mytheme/templates/partials/logo.html.twig and adapt the code as follows:

{% set logo = theme_var(mobile ? 'custom_logo_mobile' : 'custom_logo') %}
<a href="{{ home_url }}" class="navbar-brand mr-10">
{% if logo %}
  {% set logo_file = (logo|first).name %}


  {% set logo_end =  (logo_file|split('.')|last) %}
    {% if logo_end == 'svg' %}
      {# Logo ist im SVG-Format - einbetten #}
      {% include('@images/logo/' ~ logo_file) %}
    {% else %}
      {# Logo ist im Bitmap-Format (PNG, JPG etc.) - mit img-Tag einbinden #}
      <img src="{{ url('theme://images/logo/' ~ logo_file)  }}" alt="{{ site.name }}" />
    {% endif %}


{% else %}
  {% include('@images/grav-logo.svg') %} 

{% endif %}
</a>```

Thanks to pamtbaau I’ve been made aware of this issue and he kindly created a PR which I plan to review very soon. Will post an update here once that is done.

Submitted PR fix from pamtbaau now merged and released in Quark Open Publishing v2.3.2. If anyone can re-test and report much appreciated.

Hi @paulhibbitts

Many thanks! From what I can see this is working perfectly.

Side note: My svg file, generated using Affinity Design, does not appear to allow the css colour flip. I’ve an older logo which was made using Adobe which works fine. There may be a file format element in this that I was also struggling with.

I used this code and it worked exactly as expected. Thanks so much for showing me this
