Hub Site Logo not updating on associated sites

Question

I have been experimenting with hub sites and do not see the logo from my hub site updating on the associated site. I created a team site not associated with an M365 group, and then I created a Communications site both as hubs. Then I associated my hubs with various other team sites to find out what does / does not update on associated sites. While the theme changed on the associated sites, the site logo did not change.  Any ideas why this would happen? I performed these tests today. Does it take time for the logo to update?  Thanks in advance! 

Answer 1

Hi @Kim Ryan , The logo you said is Hub site navigation logo. It will be upper left corner after it associated with sites. If there is not a Hub site navigation logo, you can click Settings in hub site. Choose Hub site settings and you can see the panel like this:

Then you can upload or change the navigation logo. For more information, please refer to: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/set-up-your-sharepoint-hub-site-e2daed64-658c-4462-aeaf-7d1a92eba098

I don't think site logo is inherited from hub site to associated sites. You can have different site logo on hub site and associated sites.

After a SharePoint Administrator gives a site owner permission to associate their sites with a hub site, the site owner can then choose to associate the sites with the hub. When they do, the site inherits the hub site theme and shared navigation. Content from their site will roll up to the hub site in web parts where the source is "all sites in the hub," and the site will be included in the hub site search scope.

Both answers above are correct. There are actually two logos - a Hub site navigation logo and a Site logo. The Hub site navigation logo is the small one to the left of the top navigation menu. This one inherits. The larger Site logo does NOT inherit. Thank you both for clarifying this!
