Adding the logo to the Essential theme in Moodle on-premises

We have downloaded and installed the Essential theme in our Moodle on-premises in previous chapters, therefore we are going to add a logo to it. In order to add the logo, the steps are similar to the ones that we have followed for uploading a logo to the More theme in MoodleCloud. Therefore, we enter our Moodle on-premises course and follow these steps in order to upload the logo. We are going to use the same logo that we have created at the beginning of the chapter:

  1. Enter the Moodle course.
  2. Under Administration, click on Site administration | Appearance | Themes | Essential | Header, as shown in the following screenshot:
