  Is there a way to name my blog but not have it appear on the top of the page? I have a custom header with the Misty Lake theme. When I write my site title under General Settings on my dashboard, it automatically lists the title at the top of the site, which messes up the design. I would like to have a name for my blog so that it appears is search engines, but don’t want it to be a part of the design since I have a custom header.

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

  Hi there – many themes have a ‘show header text’ option in Appearance->Header, but Misty Lake doesn’t.

  Since you have the Custom Design upgrade, though, you can just hide your site title with a bit of CSS. Just add the title in Settings->General, and then add the following to Appearance->Customize->CSS:

  .site-title {
  display: none;
  }

  Similarly, if you want to add and then hide a tagline, add this CSS:

  .site-description {
  display: none;
  }

  Let me know how that works!
