    Joy, thank you for the reply. I’m not looking to affect users, I’m looking to temporarily affect all visitors to the site whilst it’s being developed.

    Also, I’m not familiar with hooks or how to use them. I was hoping there was one small change I could make such as a file rename or one line of code, but it appears not.

    The existing website would stay intact providing the files and database remain in place, but it wouldn’t work at all because of taking away the domain it’s all connected to.

    It’s best to migrate it to another domain using a plugin such as “Duplicator” or “Backup Buddy”. This video is slightly out of date but is still relevant: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SkjAxA48SA8

    Hi Mark, disabling backlinks would be bad but a box to tick for no symbol would be clearer than adding a space which some users won’t know as a workaround. Perhaps even better would be an option in the symbols dropdown menu that is simply “no symbol”.

    Hi Sanjay, that works great, although I find the number is too high in my opinion, so I changed the line height to 2 and removed the colour to be more discreet and less of a distraction. This is now in my Footnotes custom CSS:

    /* superscript */
    .footnote_plugin_tooltip_text {
    font-size: 65%;
    line-height: 2;
    position: relative;
    vertical-align: baseline;
    cursor: pointer;
    }

    Hi Austin, I am considering it for that reason, but it is just for one site that makes no money and currently has no visitors.

    Still no luck with getting the login username and password boxes side by-side instead of one below the other. Here is the current custom CSS in case anyone knows:

    #login {margin-top:-50px; margin-bottom:00px; margin-right:100px; margin-left:100px;}

    #user_login {width:120px; margin-left:0px; margin-top:5px;}
    #user_pass {width:120px; margin-left:150px; margin-top:5px;}

    Thank you.

    For a moment, I thought I was getting somewhere, I managed eventually to make username box smaller, but then the following code made both the username and password boxes completely disappear:

    #user_login {width:30px; position:absolute; left:10px; top:10px;}
    #user_pass {width:40px; position:absolute; left:100px; top:20px;}

    I just hope the hours put into customising it doesn’t get wiped in literally seconds with an update.

    After looking at the source code and trying various things to work out the correct CSS class, the following code more or less works for the position, so I hope this helps other searching for this:

    #login {
    margin-top:-50px;
    margin-bottom:0px;
    margin-right:50px;
    margin-left:50px;
    }

    However I have tried various class elements such as #login and the form name “user_login”, but have seen no change in the size or position of the username or password boxes in the form.

    Yes I do have Jetpack installed. The options to configure Sharing and to configure Publicize both just open the “Sharing Settings page”. Ahhh…. I just found the WP.me Shortlinks section in Jetpack, and hidden behind the “Learn More” button I found I could deactivate it. ?? Hopefully that has sorted it. Thank you for your help.

    I have exactly the same problem, in fact it is a problem I’ve had for literally years. I keep coming back to it and after a while I keep giving up in sheer frustration. I am using the latest version, WordPress 3.5.1

    I don’t want hijack this thread, so I don’t know if I should create yet another request for help with this problem.

    I have read through a lot of the above posts and replies. In style.css above the H1 tag, and also I tried at the end of the file, I pasted in:

    h1.storytitle {
    display: none;
    }

    Still it doesn’t work. I have read through many other posts here in the forum and searched for code in various pages, removed some and retried, still no change. At least the site still works. The site is live <u>here</u>

    If I ever get this page title removed, I may then spend a few years working out how to remove comments from static pages, but let’s leave that one for now. If someone like me with knowledge of HTML and basic understanding CSS has difficulty, what hope is there for most people?!

    Why don’t WordPress officially just make hiding the page titles and comments on static pages an option? There seems to be so much call for it.

    In your Admin area, go into Appearance and then Header settings. At the bottom of the page find “Display Text” and select the No. I think that should create the effect you want. It will hide the title and display only the header image(s).

    Right now I can’t work out how to add post thumbnails on the blog page. On the main blog page, each post shows the post title twice, above the post in blue and left of the post in a box. I see on the demo that the title in the box is an image, so I’m wondering how do I add that image, or how do I remove it altogether?

    I’ve inserted an image in the post, made it thumbnail size, but it never shows on the blog posts page.

    I had the same problem, use the plugin version that comes with the theme and be sure to upload it into the plugins directory.

    Hello, I’ve just installed Audio Player for the first time and I would like to ask if there is any statistical information, such as how many times an MP3 has been played? If that is possible (or will be in the future), then can it ignore the times that I play the music by ignoring my own IP address, or those of myself and close friends. Thank you.

    No reply, so I reinstalled everything all over again. I’ll have to try and verify compatibility with the version of WordPress I’m using in future.
