Hello, I recently installed Truly Minimal as my theme and I am trying to add a header text. According to Truly Minimal, it is indeed supported and should show up under Appearance – Header. But ‘Header’ is not an option. Nor is it there under Customize. All I want is a simple header text at the top of the page. Here is the site that I am designing: http://www.caseymckee.com. Thank you.

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

Hi ewigkind,

I was able to download Truly Minimal from https://wordpress.com/themes/truly-minimal/ and uploaded it to my local environment. I was able to reach Appearance > Header (I think you actually wanted to reach Customize > Site Title & Tagline). In any case, everything appears to be in order for me, as I was able to change the header text without any issues.

For what it’s worth, here is what I find underneath the body tag:
```
<body class="home blog logged-in admin-bar no-customize-support sidebar-none">
<div id="page" class="hfeed site">
		<header id="masthead" class="site-header clear" role="banner">
		<hgroup>
						<h1 class="site-title"><a href="http://local.wordpress.dev/" title="Local WordPress Dev" rel="home">Local WordPress Dev</a></h1>
			<h2 class="site-description">Just another WordPress site</h2>
		</hgroup>
```
and here is what I found on your installation:
```
<body class="home page page-id-800 page-parent page-template-default fullwidth safari-browser mac-os">
<div id="header">
	<h1><a href="http://caseymckee.com">Casey McKee</a></h1>
	<h2>The online art portfolio of Casey McKee</h2>
```
Looks quite a bit different! I’m thinking you installed plugins or adjusted the theme significantly enough that it impacted your ability to add header text.

Hello Daschultemm,

I’m sorry for the late reply, I just noticed that you had written to me. Thank you for looking at that, I’ll see if I can dig a little more and find what’s wrong.

Cheers!
