• Is it possible to leave the Site Title and Taglines in Settings/General but to not show them on the pages?
    If so where and how do i change it. I’m pretty sure it must be.

    Thank you.

  • You can either remove the code that displays them (most likely in header.php) or edit your css file to display:none for those?

    Without knowing the theme or your web address it is hard to say what the best method would be.

    Are you comfortable with coding, etc.?

    Many thanks for the reply.
    I’m using TwentyEleven Child as my Theme.
    I’m ok with a bit of coding, understand a little CSS but thats about it. I am building the site on Wampserver before it goes live. I do have a site running at the moment on the domain that is: https://www.stpeters-stmichaels.co.uk that was done with Dreamwever. I am basically copying most of that over to WordPress.

    With that theme you can choose to display text in the “Appearance-Header” option area. (note: this will close up the header area entirely)

    Alternately (what “I” would do) is use your logo as a background image for the site title and simply remove the description code.

    In your CSS you could use:

    h1#site-title { background:url(imagepath.png) no-repeat 0 0; width:100px; height:75px; text-indent:-9999px; } 
    
    h1#site-title a { width:100%; height:100%; display:block; }

    Obviously, alter the dimensions and image path to your logo.

    Removing the site description code in header.php:
    <h2 id="site-description"><?php bloginfo( 'description' ); ?></h2>

    Or hide the description with CSS:
    h2#site-description { display:none; }

    I don’t really work with any themes other than my own but I am pretty sure this is a good solution.
