THEME Shoreditch
-
In the side panel for setting the Site Identity, I put text into Tagline, but I do not see it anywhere on the home page.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)
-
-
Not every theme has a Tagline that displays on the site. See here please https://wordpress.com/themes/shoreditch/ and here https://shoreditchdemo.wordpress.com/
If you cannot find an answer on the theme description page type modlook into the tags in the sidebar of this thread for their assistance.

Okay, so even though Tagline appears on the sidebar options under Site Identity, that does not assure that the theme has a tagline? I assume, then, that that applies to the other options shown on the sidebar?
I looked at both of your links, I don’t understand what you are showing me. On the first link, is that the list of what is available for that theme? If so, how do I get to that list for a given theme?

This is the detailed theme description page for the theme you use https://wordpress.com/themes/shoreditch/ and this is the live demo site for that theme https://shoreditchdemo.wordpress.com/
Your site is private. Volunteers cannot view private blogs and we Volunteers do not request access to them. Staff can view private blog content and I typed modlook into the tags in the sidebar of this thread for their assistance.

I am subscribed.
I was told by the staff to mark my site (not a blog) as private until I get it up and running, as it currently exists with another company. This is to prevent search engines from tagging both sites and confusing visitors.
What I asked, how do you get to the theme description page for a given theme? I did not see that when I first looked into the theme, only the demo site.
Thanks for the modlook, never heard of that until now. I appreciate your assistance.

@moderntheologian Shoreditch hides the tagline just as part of its style. The tagline will can still appear in search engine results where it is applicable.
You can actually un-hide the tagline with CSS if your plan supports it:
.site-description { display: block; }Or if you’re just interested in themes like that, which feature several pieces of content on the front page, we have some other ones here:
https://wordpress.com/themes/filter/one-pageJust be sure to look at the demos to see how they work before opting to switch, since some of those hide the tagline, too.

What I asked, how do you get to the theme description page for a given theme? I did not see that when I first looked into the theme, only the demo site.
You simply use this URL https://wordpress.com/themes/NAME_OF_THEME/ and change the NAME_OF_THEME to the actual name of the theme you use like this https://wordpress.com/themes/shoreditch/
As far as making sites private until they are set up, I never do that because the result is that Google will have a robot txt entry when you search for it. It takes weeks for search engines to index a new site or to index an existing site under a new URL. https://en.support.wordpress.com/search-engines/

@supernovia
I survived 2 weeks of record breaking blizzards and power outages and I am now back online. I did not want to spend lots of $ to use my generator for this purpose ie. internet access. -
Looking into the “free” themes, I do not see anything that supports what I would call a tagline, but I may be looking for something other than what is meant by it.
Is there a place where I can see, in text, what is supported for a particular theme? I had thought that by pulling up the theme, clicking on the Theme Options on the right sidebar, that I would get a list of options for that theme, but it just takes me to the image of the different themes.
-
@moderntheologian you might look for one that supports a logo, and you can add the tagline to that in the image.
Each theme’s info page tells what it supports.
-
Sequential supports a logo there, for what it’s worth.
Also, bear in mind, I did just show the themes that are set up as “one page” type themes; your site might be suited to something else just as well.

Looking a Dara
https://wordpress.com/themes/dara/
It seems to show (under Dara, about the round buttons) what I would think of as a tagline, yet it does not say that it supports a tagline in the description of the theme. Am I missing something?
-
Go to the live demo site at and note the tagline displaying there.
https://darademo.wordpress.com/Dara
A classic, elegant theme for businesses -
Yes, that is what I was saying this shows one. But looking into its description it does not say that it supports one.
“Each theme’s info page tells what it supports.”
I don’t see anything on the info page (https://wordpress.com.themes.dara) that says that it supports taglines. That is what is confusing me. Trying to determine which themes support what options. Looking at the demo doesn’t necessarily make it clear that what I am looking at is a tagline, versus some other option.
For example, Karuna, is “The beauty of yoga: A new video from Karuna” a tagline, or something else? Not real clear from the demo.
-
It supports one. If it did not support a Tagline then one would not appear on the live demo site.
-
So, you’re saying that Karuna supports a Tagline, and that it’s “The beauty of yoga: A new video from Karuna”, and that that is not just a text that points to a link?
