    Thanks but I can’t find the theme developer (I’ve searched). I tried some custom CSS to hide the large featured image on a blog post but it didn’t seem to work.

    I don’t have access to the CloudFlare cache through WordPress. I tried using Wordfence to clear the cache but that didn’t seem to do anything.

    I’ve got an email out to the web hosting people and hopefully they may be able to help. I’ll keep you posted and thanks again for your help!

    I actually went into the site via ftp and changed the robots.txt to

    User-agent: *
    Crawl-delay: 1
    Disallow: /wp-content/plugins/
    Disallow: /wp-admin/

    It doesn’t seem to have taken. Any thoughts?

    I’ve used what i have on my personal site and it works quite well with search bots.

    Thanks, Clayton!

    The Discourage Search Engine Visibility is not checked.

    I wish there was a way to edit this file. Hmm.

    I added two plugins, submitted changes and the robots.txt remains the same.

    Does this mean I have create a file and go in via ftp or some other way?

    Thanks so much for you advice and help!

    The box is not ticked.

    The maximum dimensions are set to:

    THUMBNAIL
    150×150

    MEDIUM
    300×300

    LARGE
    1024×1024

    Also:

    Image sizes are defined by the current theme

    The sizes listed below are the crop and resize formats defined by WeeklyNews

    There are many options but when inserting into a post, you can only insert square images or the full size.

    Thanks, though, Robin.

    Hey Wen. I’ve been coin gym best. The CSS for the theme I’m using (Cave) is a bit different. Here it is and let me know if you have any thoughts. I’m literally banging my head against the wall as I type….

    [ Please use a https://pastebin.com/ link to that CSS or just post a link to your style sheet. ]

    Right now the menu tabs are all dark purple. When I hover over them, they turn a greenish-yellow color. When I select a page I want to visit, the title of the page tab (“About,” “Register,” “My Account,” etc.) all stay the same color.

    If I click on about and go to that page, I would like the page (i.e. the “active page”) to be a different color — let’s say hunter green — to let people know that they are on that page.

    When I click on “About,” I would go to the “about” page and the menu title/link would be green and all the others would be the deep purple. If I move to “Register,” the “About” page menu/tab (all and the others) would go back to deep purple and the “About” page would be forest green.

    Is that clearer? ??

    Thanks so much! The Custom CSS plugin worked like a charm! ??

    I knew that was a feature of some themes but didn’t realize there were plug ins for them. Doh!

    Thanks, esmi & Timothy! Very helpful.

    I should have done all my customization in the a child theme but was dumb.

    Thanks Esmi! I actually reformatted the theme so it has a sidebar and that corrected the problem.

    Thank you both! I tried esmi’s first and it worked great. I bet the alchymyth’s would work, too. Thank you, thank you!

    So, what is it that the code is telling the browser to do. Did you push the title and description way off and above the page? I’m just curious and trying to understand it better. Muchas gracias!

    Thread Starter bittenbyazebra

    (@bittenbyazebra)

    I think this might have worked — but I won’t be sure until my clients get back to me. It will all depend on if the title and description is visible in Internet Explorer.

    Thanks so much!

    So, for the site description, I would add:

    #site-description { display:none }

    Right?

    I guess either way works — reducing the opacity of the font color to 0 or adding what you suggested.

    I guess this is now solved?

    Thanks!

    Well, it looks like I figured out a work-around. It may not be perfect but it does the trick!

    I simply changed the opacity of the color of the Site name and site tage to an opacity of 0 by adding this to the end of the description: opacity: 0;

    See below:

    #site-title a {
    color: #333; /* DG – 25.06.2010 */
    font-weight: bold;
    text-decoration: none;
    opacity: 0;

    }
    #site-description {
    position: relative; /* DG – 24.06.2010 */
    left: 16px; /* DG – 24.06.2010 */
    top: 5px; /* DG – 24.06.2010 */
    z-index: 1; /* DG – 24.06.2010 */
    color: #555; /* DG – 24.06.2010 */
    font-size: 16px; /* DG – 24.06.2010 */
    line-height:22px;
    opacity: 0;
