Here's a solution:
1. edit _layouts/foss4kuk2023.html to have:
<html class="foss4guk2023">
- this lets us apply css styles to this minisite only and not mess any
other...
2. Use this for the logo in that file:
<p class="logo"><a href="index.html"><object type="image/svg+xml"
data="images/foss4guk2023-logo.svg">
</object></a></p>
3. Add this CSS to end of stylesheets/osgeouk_newlogo.css
.foss4guk2023 .logo object {width: 100%}
@media print, screen and (max-width: 960px) {
.foss4guk2023 .logo object {
width: 50%;
}
}
@media print, screen and (max-width: 480px) {
.foss4guk2023 .logo object {
width: 66%;
}
}
that scales the logo nicely for three screen widths.
