How can I keep my blog name from appearing?

  • Unknown's avatar

    my blog name is augustever, but instead of having the wordpress site say “Augustever” at the top of the page, I would prefer to include my name in my header image. Can I edit my blog title out of the CSS?

    You can do it without CSS. Go to settings>general and delete the name there.

    And then he/she will be right back saying that their site in an RSS feed doesn’t have a title :( If we have a link to the blog, we can check the theme. Some themes allow the header to be hidden.

    Oops that should be “some themes allow the blog title to be hidden.”

    And now this person has changed themes. If the theme doesn’t allow the blog title to be hidden, there is a trick with CSS that can be done. Check out how I did it here https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic.php?id=23377&replies=1

    Vivian, I tried your suggested code and this is what happened: now I somehow have two headers. How can I make it so that the clickable header is the only one there, and how do I make it actually fit in the space? You can take a look at my page below to see what I mean.

    thank you!

    I’m no CSS expert – I’ve learned enough to be dangerous :)

    As for the 2 headers – I think I know that answer. The code I used for The Journalist theme was necessary because there was no custom header allowed. So, in using the same code, you’ve put two headers there – one in the custom header area and another in the h1 area. (Of course, that presents an interesting option – you could have another picture in the custom header area.)

    On the width of the h1 – I don’t know how to make that fit. Something is constricting the width but I don’t know what. Hopefully, one of the CSS experts will drop in.

    One more thing – in the link I gave you is a link to the instructions that I used to come up with my clickable header. Mentioned in that link is that in putting in the width, you can set it to 100% rather than the # pixels. That may work.

    as far as I can see, you have one div called “header” and one called “headerimage”. The top one, the “header” is the clickable one.
    Get rid of the one you don’t want first, and then see if the positon is off after that.
