Can I delete each label on every page “categories” before the actual title of the category. For example when you click the latest on the upper left hand corner it says Categories: The Latest. I just want it to say The Latest no categories.
Give this a try:
.category .page-title { overflow: hidden; text-indent: -4.7em; } -
Thank you for the codes. I will play around with these and see what I think works best for me. I immediately put to use the category code because I did not like that label and it worked.
If I put a sub category under the podcast episode category would that work for me with my archived podcast episodes?

I’m not sure I understand this part – which CSS code are you asking about?
-
It isn’t a CSS code. It is something I noticed when I go to menu I can make a category a sub category. I am not sure exactly what a sub category is as opposed to a regular category.
-
Also how do I input the [display-posts include_excerpt="true"] code properly to each section because when I tried it started messing with things
-
The social topic pieces section doesn’t display the 3 posts underneath it on my mobile site. It just cuts off at the section title.
-
Is there a way to place the featured pictures attached to each post on top of the post as opposed to besides them?

A sub-category is a category contained within another category. For example, if your category is Food, sub-categories might be Soups, Salads, Main Dishes, Side Dishes, and Desserts.
The social topic pieces section doesn’t display the 3 posts underneath it on my mobile site. It just cuts off at the section title.
Can you provide a link to that page? The menu item called “Social Topic Pieces” is not clickable, and I don’t see a page with that title.
Is there a way to place the featured pictures attached to each post on top of the post as opposed to besides them?
Do you mean on your homepage? This should do it:
.home .listing-item a.alignleft { float: none; margin-top: 20px; }I prefer the look with the images to the left, but it’s up to you, of course. :)

Could you please start a new thread for this question, and provide a link to a page where you’ve added the shortcode so folks can take a look. When you post again in your new thread, let us know what you’d like to tweak so we can help you better.

[display-posts category="music/movies/games-reviews" posts_per_page="3" include_date="true" date_format="F j, Y" image_size="thumbnail"]
<h3 style=”text-align:center;”><span style=”color:#0066cc;”>Social Topic Pieces</span> </h3>[display-posts include_excerpt="true"]
[display-posts category="social-topic-articles" posts_per_page="3" include_date="true" date_format="F j, Y" image_size="thumbnail"]Social Topic Pieces was once called Social Topic Articles and this was the code I had for it to display on the front page but for some reason it stopped working
I will make a new thread for the other question thank you! I also will take your advice about keeping the images on the left.

Ah, I understand what you’re referring to now!
You’ll need to change the category name in your shortcode from social-topic-articles to social-topic-pieces – that should get them displaying again!

Thank you
I added a code in my css for youtube verification but youtube is unable to verify my website still. Did I place it in the wrong area?
This is from YouTube:
“It says Copy the meta tag below, and paste it into your site’s home page. It should go in the <head> section, before the first <body> section.” -
Is there a way to push down the header description the “Podcast, Sports, Entertainment & Social Topics” line down to the center bottom of the header image and make the slightly font bigger and clearer?

Hi there,
I added a code in my css for youtube verification but youtube is unable to verify my website still. Did I place it in the wrong area?
So verification codes from Google will need to be placed in your My Site > Settings > Traffic area:
https://wordpress.com/settings/traffic/
We have a handy guide here to walk through the steps and to make sure you have the correct type of verification code:

Let us know if you get stuck.
Is there a way to push down the header description the “Podcast, Sports, Entertainment & Social Topics” line down to the center bottom of the header image and make the slightly font bigger and clearer?
Sure, this CSS will make the adjustment to the larger screens (the ones that don’t show the mobile menu):
@media screen and (min-width: 768px) { /*Make site header fit current image height*/ .site-header { min-height: 181px; padding: 0; } /*Move tagline down and increase font size*/ .site-description { margin-top: 160px; font-size: 1.3em; } } -
Thank you dcole it worked!
Now I am still looking for help with the post excerpt for each post in each section. How to incorporate that with each code on my static front page.

Kathryn for my color picker tool font on the post titles I wanted to use this #16d3f4 code. I tried to change my background to black with the customizer but it didn’t change it remained white.
Is there a way to box in each section title like have a #16d3f4 which is light blue box where the Podcast Episodes title is for example and have the title podcast episodes like cookie cutter itself with the black background in the light blue box?
-
on the post titles I wanted to use this #16d3f4 code
Ok, here’s some CSS for that:
/*Set Font Color on Post & Page Titles*/ .entry-title, .entry-title a, .entry-title a:visited, .page-title, .home .listing-item a, .home .listing-item a:visited { color: #16d3f4; }I tried to change my background to black with the customizer but it didn’t change it remained white.
The customizer won’t allow background colors to be set if the text will be difficult to read against that background. Since the body text of your site is black, it doesn’t allow you to set a black background. This can be changed via CSS, but changes will have to be made to any text color that is hard to read on a black background. It’s fine to do that, but because it may take a bit of back/forth to pin down everything that needs to be changed, I’d recommend making a new thread for this specific item.

For this, are you wanting a border around just the section titles, or should the border go around the section titles and also the three posts within that section?
Now I am still looking for help with the post excerpt for each post in each section. How to incorporate that with each code on my static front page.
It looks like you created a new thread for that like Kathryn suggested, and are getting help with this here.
Keeping threads on a single topic helps to make them easier to follow, and helps to keep things organized a bit better.
As a side note, since you have the WordPress.com Business plan, you’re also able to receive real-time live chat help via this link:
If you’re actively working on your site and have questions while working, that might help you to make progress a bit more quickly on things, but you’re welcome to use whatever support method works best for you.
