tagline doesn't show in forever?
-
Does the tagline not show in the Forever theme? It showed initially at the bottom, but now its not even there.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

It does. Check the theme demo:

“A WordPress.com wedding theme” is the tagline. -
Thanks. It’s perfect in the demo! Not so perfect in my case. ugh! Here is the problem that I’m having. I found the tagline on my blog page. But that’s not where I want it. I tried to get it off of the blog page & onto the home page, but it won’t go. Then I’m trying to disable the bloody comments on the homepage. I’ve gone thru all of the steps and nothing is working. I think I’ve screwed something up and at this point I’m not sure how to undo the damage. I’m not the biggest techie. yikes!

Oh I see: you’ve set a static page as your blog front. Forever doesn’t display the tagline on static pages. You can edit the page and add the tagline text in the main content of the page. If you want it centered, write it like this in the HTML editor:
<h1 style="text-align:center;">YOUR TAGLINE HERE</h1>To remove the comment box, uncheck the options Allow Comments and Allow Pings in the Discussion module. If you’re not seeing the Discussion module while on the page editor screen, click Screen Options (top right) to enable it.

PS If you want no sidebar on your front page, select the Guestbook template in the Page attributes module of the page editor.

I did what you suggested regarding the tagline and it worked. The comments on the other hand, I’m not having such luck with. I did disable the allow comments and it still shows up on the first page. Do I need to scrap that page and do a new one while in disabled comment mode?

You don’t have to search anywhere! The discussion module has two options: you uncheck both and click Update.

This is what my discussion module has on the screen option in the page

So I only want to disable the comments on the static page. I’m fine with comments everywhere else. Again, thanks a lot. I know it can be frustrating dealing with the anti-mark zuckerberg! :-)

@timethief. I went to the Screen Options module & below is what I see in Screen Options. I unchecked ‘Comments’ & ‘Discussions.’ At this point I’m not sure what else to do. Other than scrap the page altogether and do a new one. But that seems gratuitous.
“Show on screen
Sharing – Page Attributes – Featured Image – Discussion – Comments Slug – Author Revisions – Writing Helper” -
Each box on the page editor screen is a module (there’s the Publish module, the Page Attributes module etc). Checking or unchecking items in Screen Options determines which modules will be visible on the page editor screen, not which items will be visible on the actual blog page.
You click Screen Options and check Discussion, so that the Discussion module will show up on the editor screen. Then you go to the module itself and uncheck the options “Allow comments” and “Allow trackbacks and pingbacks on this page”.

OMGosh! NOW it makes sense. I see it now! I have been so confused about that. I have spent hours, or rather wasted hours trying to figure this out. Thanks a bunch everyone for your patience and help. Geesh!
