How can I remove the categories link from my homepage?

Success!

Evan Herman: thankyou (your comments noted, and you latest explanation is far more clear; but newbie: “an inexperienced newcomer to a particular activity”, surely it is not asked that one learn a whole language simply to ask, say, the time); gk2raghav: thankyou; everyone: thankyou.

I can now return to my music practice, have a recital coming up, some tutoring to give later, tonight a private lessons to take, classes at 8 tomorrow, and exams acoming: you see, my geekdom is different.

I am done.

Great, very glad you got this issue resolved. Good luck getting all of that done! Seems like a lot to have on your plate at one time!

All the best!

Evan

Aye, a lot.

Now I am left with only that horrid cream bar; left to wonder what it is and why, and is there some code I could enter into my new custom css to see it blessed gone.

Can we see a link to your site? I’m not sure what the cream bar is.

Sir,

Mentioned above: unhappened [dot] com.

Well, in future please style your links so they are viewed as a link and not just plain text….

That is your site navigation….

.navbar {
  background: transparent;
}

Sir,

“style your links so they are viewed as a link and not just plain text…”,: failings more of a newbie putz.

So: “.navbar {
background: transparent;
}”

I add this to custom css?

Yes add that to the custom css plugin below the previous addition.

Sir,

Oh joy!. You are a boy very knowing and sharp; can you fly a light place, have you seen the world, do you speak a second language?, I can, I have, I do: sorry: just further defending my putzdom.

Next, perhaps finally: (genuinely: send me a bill, and I will pay it!), is there a way (in PageMaker, (now called InDesign), in which I once held certification to teach, I could do it in the fewest seconds, (you try)), I can give the words “Chiliad… remarkable”, overlaying the graphic, a coloured outline, to make it stand out, for against the monochrome no one colour works.

Seriously: be on call to fix my problems, and I will, reasonably, pay you!

Thankyou

Glad that worked out for you!

I have seen much of the world as I was lucky enough to travel when I was younger. I unfortunately cannot speak a second language fluently, although I know a bit of spanish.

I’m not sure of a simple way to achieve that in InDesign, but I know you can easily achieve it in either Photoshop or Illustrator. My original background is in graphic design so I know those programs very well.

I know it can be done in InDesign, that is just the weakest of my three programs.

Sir,

Is it ok, safe, to dialog here in this so public manner? Yes, like I suppose here on the internet, which requires the skills from so many fields, InDesign requires skills in printing, typography, English, graphic art, &c. Photoshop became so much a degree-like leaning experience I gave it utterly up, particularly as I am so skillessly amateur at drawing, painting.

So: in Photoshop or Illustrator (probably also in PageMaker, which I still have), I can make one graphic for the Header Image, and place it in in WP; but can the “Site Title and Tagline” be left blank?

Bill me!

Definitely you can do that. If you create a graphic in InDesign you can export it as a jpg or png and use that as your site header. You can delete the text inside of the Settings for tagline, so it does not display one.

Sir,

Thankyou! I have further question, generally, about WP, about comments, users, and more. If you will allow yourself to bill me, I will ask them.

Bill me anway, for your patience.

I am not going to charge you to answer such questions. I do so out of love of the community and of WordPress as a publishing platform.
