Visual Editor text/image not appearing on my posts page

Hi there!

Did you get this worked out? It looks like your 1 blog post is showing content.

Hi Fab!

This is actually a “no brainer”…but does require a bit of coding:

What we will do is to add a conditional statement to the /partials/header-layout.php file of your site’s child theme (presuming you have a child theme?).

If you don’t have a child theme, then we will first MAKE a basic child theme to hold these modifications so they won’t get overwritten when you update the parent theme, as you should do regularly when it’s available

In the child theme, we will copy the /partials/header-layout.php file from the parent, and then find the site-title div id and then we want to add a conditional statement, which is a fancy way of saying an “if / then” statement. We want to say “if this is the blog page, then add an image and some new tagline…else, use the default stuff”.

At that point, we can also add a little custom.css to ensure that the new image title and tagline play nice with the rest of the theme on all media sizes (iphones, tablets, etc.).

Line 37 to 71 contain the code you want to wrap with a conditional… and that might be something like (assuming you want this on single blog post pages and not on your blog index):

if (is_single() ) {
PUT YOUR CUSTOM LOGO AND TAGLINE HERE
} else {
PUT THE ORIGINAL LINES 37 TO 71 HERE
}

Thank you (a big one) for checking in on me. I’m off to try out your instructions, BabyFaceWeb (which, btw, were extremely detailed and very appreciated!). I do have a child theme in place.

I did find a plug in (Visual Website Editor) that features WYSWYG editing in a manner that allows the user to click on any section of a page and edit as needed without having to wrangle widgets and code. Playing around I was able to delete my site Title from the Blog Page then add the replacement Title as an image – voila! – only to discover that the plug in appears to run off of my screen and I cannot scroll over to where (I assume) the save button is. I tried minimal troubleshooting but cannot afford to burn hours figuring out how to make the plug in fit my screen. BOO.

Two steps forward and one step back, right?

Thank you again for the help! =)

Super cool FAB!

One of the most important lessons that many of us learn is “when to hold em” and “when to fold em” as far as getting some new tasks completed. Have an honest evaluation of your time/frustration value and then [Solicitation redacted]
