Two H1 – Bing is complaining

Hi,

The div.header-clone is only decorative that helps sticky header to work properly while the page is scrolled. It is empty. I guess you got extra H1 element somewhere else.

You can use this CSS code to add to your web browser’s User CSS to point you where the element is appearing.

h1 {
    border: 20px solid red;
}

That code will add big red border on H1 tag.

Hi Kharis,

thank you for taking time.

Yes, it’s the sites title, that is marked as H1.

I have also the H1 for each page. It’s hidden because of the design with code I’ve found here, but it’s still there of course.

I’ve found it here in the code. Is there any way to change it? Delete it? Or would it mess up the site?
I mean is it normal, that the sites title is also H1? What do you suggest to solve this issue for google/bing? They are giving clear warnings, that it’s not allowed, even if in forum they say it’s ok. It’s not.

Thank you for getting back Michael!

So you want to change the H1 tag on site title appears on header area to H2 (for example)? Please confirm.

Is it possible (a good idea?) to have the title without any H1, Just <title> tags?
If not H2 would do I think.

I really don’t know what’s the best choice.
In Stack Overflow I have found this:

“Semantically, <h1> should be used for the page title.
Your site name should be in a plain div, perhaps with ID of ‘heading’. Or, the <header> tag if using HTML5.”

Ok, I have found no this with the browsers search option on my sites code. It’s strange, cause it is also in a German language.

Is this maybe causing it?

Yes, let’s do it this way.
