Forgot to flag this as resolved. Done!

That did it. Thank you so much. ??

That got rid of the images — thanks!

Now the overhang is all that’s left. I’ve tried fiddling with percentages, and everything else I could think of, but nothing has gotten the blog post page to match the rest of the site. (I’ve undone my fiddling.)

Rating left. Thanks again for all of your help.

Hey, this time it got me closer! I must have pasted it incorrectly last time.

Now the blog page only somewhat “overhangs” the main layout, which is a step in the right direction. I still see thumbnails.

No change. Thanks again for trying to help!

Thanks for getting back to me so quickly!

No such luck on the fix, unfortunately. It looks exactly the same as it did before.

A friend slung me this altered version, which works like a charm:

<?php if (is_page()) echo 'MAIN HEADER';
else echo 'BLOG HEADER';?>

Hmm. The page template for my theme calls the header.php file…which won’t be different no mater what page template I use. Is there another option here?

Okay, page templates look promising. From reading the codex, it doesn’t even sound like I’d need any special code — just create a page template for /blog, apply it, and have the only difference be the header. I’ll give that a shot. Thanks!

I caught my typo and edited it; I’ve been using is_page without success.

Got it! I kludged in a bit of other code to get them to display alphabetically, and all is well.

Thanks, moshu! ??

Sorry about that, moshu. I figured it would be better than starting a fresh topic.

I’d already looked at both of those Codex pages, and didn’t see how they would help — I’ll take another look.

Whoops! I forgot to return and mark this as resolved.

Thanks for the suggestion of Rust Asides, podz — I took a look at it, but it’s not what I was after. I wound up going with Morgan Doocy’s MiniPosts plugin (https://doocy.net/), which works flawlessly.

Between David Chait’s category detection post and Prem Rara’s “got it!” post, what transpired?

I’ve been trying to get category archives to display as title lists for several hours, and had no luck whatsoever. I’ve scoured the codex and the support forums, and visited sites of folks that have made it work — no luck yet.

What am I missing?

qbert72, words can’t express how grateful I am for your post!

I’ve been trying to find a way to put unique headers on my category pages without creating 10+ separate pages (a nightmere to update), and your approach is perfect. Thank you!
