how to hide single page title home

Hey there,

We’re talking about the each post title and just for the home page?

If so you could use this:

.home .prev-title{display:none}

If the theme doesn’t have a CSS field option you could use a plugin like this:

Have a fantastic day! ??

Thanks timothy but it doesn’t work… any other suggestions?

It will be helpful if you post the url of your site. May be this will help you:

.home #title-container{
display:none;
}

If it is the item I asked for clarification on then it does work, and it’s a class not an ID. Here is a screenshot of it working:

If it’s not working for you then chances are you’ve not placed the CSS late enough in the load sequence. With CSS the last instance called is the one that takes priority. You should place it later.

How are you adding it and where?

You could take it out of that order like this:

.home .prev-title{display:none !important;}

However !important should not be used as a first choice, you can read more here:

Take care.

Just to add, another option is a child theme and then editing the loop.php to remove both instances of the following:

<h2 class="prev-title"><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>"><?php the_title();?></a></h2>

You can read more on child themes here:

Thanks guys, really struggling with this…. Still doesn’t work… Probably me. Not a techie. Testing the theme currently at a test site at https://www.test.presenceinessence.com

Hey there,

Looking at your site I think you’re talking about the area CMSHelpLive was targeting.

I originally thought you were talking about the titles on the grid home page as per my earlier screenshot, like this:

https://monosnap.com/image/zezGcrNLgQOLLLs8qI2oQCNkbpnaxX

But now I think you refer :

https://monosnap.com/image/GzamXJWY67OpMqGdMWiPPCmnZuBq48

And if that’s the case then it’s this CSS:

.home #title-container{
display:none;
}

I see that’s a static page set rather than the default grid. If you wanted to edit this out of the template instead of CSS and through a child theme you’d look at page.php, I’d guess you would still want the title on normal pages so you want to use !is_front_page around the title, something like this:

<?php if (!is_front_page()) { ?><div id="title-container"> <h1><?php the_title() ?></h1> </div>
 <?php } ?>

Hope this helps.

Take care.

Thanks Timothy! This works ??

Now I have two more additional questions…. Hope you’re willing to help out…
1) What to do to highlight current page background in menu bar?

2) How to display the logo in the center?

If its tricky just tell me… Might need to surch for other theme but really believe this theme could help me out nicely if I get it to work….

Thanks again!

Hi

1. You can add the following to the custom css setting in the theme customizer: `.current-menu-item{
background-color: black;
}`

replace black with your highlight color.

2. You can do this by adding this to the same custom css setting: `#header-left{
float: none;
margin: 0px auto;
width: 350px;
}`

Hope this does the job.

Thanks Mick. Background color works. Second part for the logo doesn’t. Any other suggestions?

Hey 4Lott,

Hope you’re doing well today ??

Try adding this CSS to center the logo:

#header {
text-align: center;
}

Hope that helps!

Cheers,
Tyler
