I’m using the Affinity theme. It appears that because it’s not a static page, I can’t override the header image for the blog posts page, but I’d like to know if I can use CSS customization to prevent the site tagline from overlaying that image. I’d like to substitute Blog or some other relevant title for the posts page.

The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi lindacassidylewis

Are you referring to the ‘let me tell you a story text’ on this page https://lindacassidylewis.com/i-blog/

If that is what you are trying to achieve, try adding the following custom CSS in the Admin Dashboard
```
.site-description-wrapper {
    display: none;
}
```
To add custom CSS

Select Appearance > Customize > CSS from your Admin Dashboard and enter the custom CSS there.

Yes, g471n, that’s the text, the tagline for the site. But will that CSS modification remove that text from the static front page too? What I want is to change “let me tell you a story” to “Blog”— but only on the dynamic posts page.

Hi @lindacassidylewis, add the following to your custom CSS and see what you think. You can edit the content string between the parentheses as desired.
```
.blog .site-description a {
  visibility: hidden;
}
.blog .site-description a:after {
  content: "Blog";
  visibility: visible;
  display: block;
}
```
