Multiple Custom Headers

Question

I am trying to add this function:

add_theme_support( 'custom-header' );

I would like this to somehow combine with multiple headers. I saw some code that was PHP that checked which template was loaded then add the image (header) that was defined in the code.

This is not totally optional since I want my theme to allow the user of the theme to change the header for his "buyers" template, the "sellers" template, so forth. Is there any way to make the 'custom header' page allow several custom headers that are called on different templates?

Answer 1

What you want to achieve is posible but not with WordPress custom-header feature because it's you can use multiple images in random sequence.

If you mean 'different page templates' you can simply hard code your images links in your templates, but this is not good solution.

Another solution is to write function which will check the name of page template and change header image.

If you need that functionality for normal users you need to create a new settings page for your theme. It should save to WP options information about template name and image for it.
