Copy Header Height To Multiple Pages

I've upgraded my site to a Birdseye-derived theme and the Short Header option I was using doesn't exist, it is now just Header. Is there any way to resize the header on a page, then copy that size to other pages? I want to avoid having to manually edit 100+ pages.

I've tried editing the header after a resize then copying that header to my target pages, but that doesn't appear to include the header height change, just the image.

I can add CSS code to change the size, but that will change the size for every page. I just want to change the size of pages under a specific parent page. I could do this if Weebly added a CSS class for each parent page in a childs body tag.

You should be able to do that if you click on "Edit Background" for the one you have customized, then "Advanced". There's an option there to save the header to other pages of your site.

I agree with the "should" part, but it doesn't. It appears to just update the background image to be the same, not the height.

And to be sure I published the changes and the heights remain unchanged.

I was really hoping there'd be an answer for this as I'm having the same problem.

I'm upgrading to the new themes and now under 'Header' i have pages of various heights. After having thought i'd keep them uniform by just adopting the same image across them all.

I thought they might have been influenced by the pages previous short header settings, but i'm not so sure now.

Anyone?

If you're using a new theme which only has Header/No Header/Splash for page types, try the following:

1. Set the image and header height for the page with which you want to replicate the header with (click on the section, then click on the blue circle at the bottom and drag it up or down

2. Click on "Edit Background", then click on "Advanced". You'll see an option there to copy the header to other pages

Adam, I have tried what you say MULTIPLE times for my site and it will NOT save the same height for the header on all chosen pages. Nobody seems able to fix this. Weebly need to change that, as there are no places to change attributes such as height or width and make them save. I have tried, trust me on that. And the "optimization" suggestions say that's what I should do to make my site "better" but there just is NO WAY to do it!

Yes, having the same issues here. Sometimes switching out the duplicated headers 2 or 3 times until magically the resize handle works again. Poorly implimented feature.
