  • I don’t see anything wrong in your code. Can you post a link to your site?

    it has been commented out on the index.php but i am using a page template (blog.php) where it is identical except the h2 post is not commented out.

    The default blog post list uses index.php. Page templates are for pages. Check out Template Hierarchy for more info on this.

    Thanks for your help and i will fix what i have done. But i commented out the blog title (on index) because i do not want the page title’s to show on every single page. I only want the blog post title to appear on the blog page for all posts. So… i created a replica of the index and uncommented the h2 post and name it (blog.php) and that is used as the page template for the blog page. It there a way to do this with out having to do what i explained?

    i get it. so i should create a page template reflecting the commented out h2 post and that will fix my issue.

    You should comment out the title for single.php instead. That’s the file used to display blog posts when viewing them individually.

    Remember that post and page are two different things in wordpress. index.php is used to display all and single.php for individual post.

    i do not have a single.php file but will look into creating one. For now, i have created a page template commenting out the desired info and it all works as wanted. I truly appreciate your help!

    You’re welcome.
