Removing Header/banner title text

Don’t know anything about the theme but from the sound of it, the text is either embedded as normal HTML in the header.php for the theme or it will be embedded into the header image.

well i actually managed to remove the text by editing the css template to:

#header a{
color: #b6e1fe;
display: none;
}

..however the graphic banner disappeared along with it ??

Yup, the standard header is a div tag named “header” so if you disable it via CSS, everything in it is gone.

Try header.php for that theme and you should find the offending text, if not, its in the image.

Alright, I’m still quite a noob but is it related to this:

<title><?php bloginfo(‘name’); ?><?php wp_title(); ?></title>

found it in the header.php..

You’re in the correct section. I downloaded the theme but I’m not seeing anything weird in it. What text are you seeing that you want to remove? If you can cut and paste it, I might be able to locate where it’s pulling from.

just the website title text, i want to use a graphic banner instead of it.

i can link you to my website instead, the problem should be pretty clear if you see it. ^^

it’s the exact same theme just with different colours, nothing else has been touched.

Mk, that’s the blog title. In wp-admin/ Options and remove “Akayuki – News For Gamers” from the Weblog Title box.

If you REALLY wanted to, you can also remove:

<h1><a href="<?php bloginfo('url'); ?>" title="<?php bloginfo('name'); ?> <?php _e('home page'); ?>"><?php bloginfo('name'); ?></a></h1>

from the header.php, but I’d stick with the first method.

yeah I tried the first one but the banner also disappeared >_>

This should work. Place the following in the blog title:

&bnsp;

This is the HTML version of a space.

you mean place that in the blog title using wp-admin panel? cause that didn’t work either >_> it just shows ‘&bnsp;’ as text.

lol sorry im such a bother >_<

…Thats messed up.

At the moment, I can’t do much from here, but it you email me at [email protected] – I can work with you more from home, but it’ll be 5 hours or so before I can.

ah actually i wrote &bnsp; instead of  , which works! it’s a shame i cant have a title though >_> anyways the banner can be seen so thanks for the help ^^

It’s still underlining the space. In order for me to delve into it more, I’d need to edit the files on a test installation of WP I have. If you want, feel free to email me at the above address and I’ll try to send out a fix for you tonight.

Well you know how I got round it? When you setup your blog just don’t give it a title, or if like me you’ve already named it, edit the info and leave title space blank. seems to work.

Bill,

There are two problems with not naming a title:

1: No title is printed in the very top of the browser, tab, etc.
2: It causes the banner image to go away since it’s rendered out of CSS.

The quick hack was to remove all the code in the header and place 2 paragraph tags in its spot. This allows the search box to be where it’s supposed to be an allows Rain to display a Title without problems.

…Been a long day.
