  Did you get this sorted out?

  Looks like you’ve switched your front page to use the default template now. If you want the homepage template, you can remove the default text and call to action in the Customizer‘s Theme Options > Homepage Template panel:

  

  Looks like you’ve removed your Site Title and tagline in the Customizer’s Site Identity panel.. I’d suggest you add those back as they’re very important for search engines. If you don’t want them displayed on the front end (public side) you can hide them by unchecking the box next to “Display Site Title and Tagline.” This keeps them visible to search engines and browsers, while hiding them on your header image.

  I successfully removed the default text and added my Site Title.
  Can I change the Site Title font style, colour and size?
  It is not readable (black)) until you pass the cursor over it and appears white.

  @hgphilip,

  Try out the various palette options at Customize > Colors & Backgrounds > Choose a Palette.

  Good idea, musicdoc.

  hgphilip – you might like the second palette, it’s similar to what you have now, but with a white Site Title:

  

  Let us know how it goes.
