Your logo is usually the first thing visitors see and the fastest way back to your home page.
The free Site Logo block in Nexter Blocks places your logo in a header, footer or any page, with an optional hover logo, a separate logo for sticky headers, a custom link and schema markup.
Before You Start
- Edition: Free — works in Nexter Blocks (free) and with Nexter Blocks Pro.
- Block to enable: Site Logo, switched on under Nexter > Blocks in your WordPress dashboard.
- Where to add it: in a header or footer template built with Nexter Builder, so the logo shows on every page.

How It Behaves
- The logo links to your home page unless you choose Custom URL.
- With Double, the hover logo replaces the normal logo while the pointer is over it.
- With Sticky Logo on, the sticky logo replaces the normal one when a Nexter Builder sticky header becomes sticky. See change the logo in a sticky header.
- Without an uploaded logo, the block shows a grey placeholder image on the live site.
- It works the same in the free plugin and with Nexter Blocks Pro.
Limitations
- The default Image Size is Thumbnail, which serves a 150×150 cropped copy. A wide logo gets cut to a square. Set Image Size to Full.
- Schema markup leaves out the logo image when the logo is picked from the Media Library. The structured data then only includes your site URL.
- The help text under Logo Normal/Dual says “Dual”, but the option is labelled Double.
Troubleshooting
I cannot find the Site Logo block
It is switched off. Go to Nexter > Blocks, search for Site Logo and turn it on.
My logo is cropped or blurry
Image Size is still Thumbnail. Set it to Full, then limit the size with Logo Max Width.
A grey placeholder shows instead of my logo
No logo is uploaded in Upload Image or Upload SVG for the selected Logo Type.
