Hi Richard and welcome to Our!.

You could try this code. I use to add a proppery for the frontpage called logo. Then I had a Master template where i add the XSLT macro on.

So i you add a field with the alias of logo on your documenttype for your frontpage with this code you should be good.

<xsl:if test="$currentPage/ancestor-or-self::*/logo!=''">
    <div id="logo">
        <xsl:variable name="media" select="umbraco.library:GetMedia($currentPage/ancestor-or-self::*/logo, 0)" />
        <xsl:variable name="alt" select="umbraco.library:GetMedia($currentPage/ancestor-or-self::*/logo, 0)/@nodeName" />
            <a href="/"><img src="{$media/umbracoFile}" alt="{$alt}"/></a>
    </div>
</xsl:if>

Another alternative could be this: From Umbraco 4.11, there is a new control with name: umbraco:image. It is fairly simple to use, and should make it a bit easier to work with images. You use it like this Add this into your master template:

And with the umbraco:Image tag you can print images in the templates.

<umbraco:Image runat="server" field="logo"/>

It will output something like this e.g:

<img src="/media/19/73006.jpg"/>

Hope this will help you print your logo.

Thanks for your answer Dennis.

When I create a XSL file with your code I get this error when saving:

Error occured

To rule out any special character, I've copied and pasted the code via Notepad.

The issue with the <umbraco:Image option is that I have a Master template and a sub template (I'm using the Business site starter kit). In order to get the logo on every page, I'll have to put the code in the mastertemplate. But the mastertemplate does not have a document type (or am I wrong?) I've alread set a property in the sub document type, and that works fine. The issue is that I have to enter a logo for every document type, so the logo is still not normalized.

Hi Richard,

With this code you should be good.

<xsl:if test="$currentPage/logo !=''"> 
     <xsl:variable name="media" select="umbraco.library:GetMedia($currentPage/ancestor-or-self::*/logo, 0)"/>
     <xsl:variable name="alt" select="umbraco.library:GetMedia($currentPage/ancestor-or-self::*/logo, 0) /nodeName"/>
        <a href="/"><img src="{$media/umbracoFile}" alt="{$alt}"/></a>
</xsl:if>

And the way I normaly do it by adding a tab on the frontpage documenttype called site settings and on this tab I add a field called logo and the datatype is set to Media picker. After that then add the macro to the master template where the logo should appear.

Rember to change the alias of the field so it match your setup.

Hope this will work for you

Although I got the same error, your reply set me in the right direction.

I've made the macro and embedded it in the masterpage and it is rendering fine on all pages now.

Thanks Dennis.

Hi Richard,
