How to add a 2nd tagline (site identity) or put in a ‘return’ in the code

  • Folks, sorry if this is a stupid question but i have already spent a couple hours trying to customise this. If i had access to the php file this would have been solved already, but i can’t find it! Web Inspector doesn’t give me the specific file its in and i don’t have knowledge of the file structure.

    Anyway, i need to display the title and tagline (site identity in the code). But depending on the device viewing, it won’t display the info correctly, as in the date should be on a separate line from the subtitle/tagline.

    Whats the best way to do this?

    Thanks for your time.

    Hi @neabiufr,

    to just double check exactly what you mean – is the issue that you’re wanting the 11/10/23 to always be on it’s own line?

    One thing I’d suggest is not having that date be part of the tagline/description and instead inserting it into the template as a plain paragraph. Is that something that could work for you?

    Yes! Just need the date range to be on its own line. ” 09 a 11/10/23″

    The problem is, this info is part of the themes template. Its just a text field as input (tagline) as per the image below. I can’t create a block or paragraph – as far as i know.

    Thanks

    Realised i may not have answered your question “One thing I’d suggest is not having that date be part of the tagline/description and instead inserting it into the template as a plain paragraph. Is that something that could work for you?”

    Essentially If i had to, sure. But its far from ideal. The event date is important info that should appear on every page when the visitor glances up. But i find it hard to believe that there isn’t some simple solution…

    Cheers!

    Thanks for explaining @neabiufr – you’re correct that that setting/description is just a single text field – although that is true for all WordPress sites and themes.

    Essentially If i had to, sure. But its far from ideal. The event date is important info that should appear on every page when the visitor glances up. But i find it hard to believe that there isn’t some simple solution…

    One thing you could try is inserting a break tag (<br>) within the text input and see if it appears in the description, or just inserts the page break.

    Yeah, i had tried the break tag but its treated as just text so luck i~m afraid. I guess i′ll have to learn about file structures and find it on the server.

    @neabiufr If you’re thinking of making changes directly to the theme – I’d recommend doing that in a child-theme.
