I try to make my own header on odoo 9 . for that i try to replace the current header using this :

<template id="new_header" inherit_id="website.layout">
    <xpath expr="//header" position="replace">
        <div>...</div>
    </xpath>

</template>
but an error occurred saying : 
Error details:
Element '<xpath expr="//header//a[@class='navbar-brand']">' cannot be located in parent view

Error context:

            <xpath expr="//header" position="replace">

I found the solution for me...

There are two templates that inherent from website.layout and change somethings into the header :

1-Show logo

2-Show sign in

So to solve this problem u must either remove these two templates or if u don't want to make change into the website module u can try this :

<template priority="100" id="new_header" inherit_id="website.layout">
    <xpath expr="//header" position="replace">
        <div>customize ur new header...</div>
    </xpath>

</template>

Hi 

is coded in a new module that you create if that's it check the file  __manifest__ 

'depends': ['website'],
