How to Update Tagline

Hi,

That area under the title might not be using the tagline code for WordPress or theme. Are you sure that’s controlled by the tagline? Or hard coded into the template under the title?

I would also say it is possibly cached by your hosting provider but that is 50% / 50% chance … Possible tho.

So do you think my hosting provider could amend for me?

Hi,

Hosting provider wouldn’t, they might but I think they will tell you it is out of their scope.

You can carefully go to your dashboard, click on Appearance -> Editor …

Then on the right hand side of the screen look for the file called “header.php”. Now if its properly coded, looking at that file you probably will locate the tagline within bunch of lines of code. You can change it there, that’s if it was hard coded into your template. Then after edit you can click update to save it.

You have to be really really careful, any bad change here can break the theme.

Hope that helps.

Thank you.

The php files are not writable. If I’ve needed to make any changes to the header I’ve always contacted my host provider in the past. Presumably the php files are not writable to protect me from breaking the theme.

Having said the above the tagline in not located in the header.php anyway. See below:

<div id="header">
    <header>
        <div class="logo">
        <?php if ($theme->get_option('themater_logo_source') == 'image') { ?>
            <a href="<?php echo home_url(); ?>"><img src="<?php $theme->option('logo'); ?>" alt="<?php bloginfo('name'); ?>" title="<?php bloginfo('name'); ?>" /></a>
        <?php } else { ?>
            <?php if($theme->display('site_title')) { ?>
                <h1 class="site_title"><a href="<?php echo home_url(); ?>"><?php $theme->option('site_title'); ?></a></h1>
            <?php } ?> 

            <?php if($theme->display('site_description')) { ?>
                <h2 class="site_description"><?php $theme->option('site_description'); ?></h2>
            <?php } ?>
        <?php } ?>
        </div><!-- .logo -->

        <div class="header-right">
            <nav>
			<?php if($theme->display('menu_primary')) {   $theme->hook('menu_primary');  } ?>
			</nav>
		</div><!-- .header-right -->
    </header>
    </div><!-- #header -->
