Maybe I am not up to do date with the correct version. I can not get the title to show up on the PDF, even though I choose in the drop down. Also, I want to create a PDF file and not print one, can not see that option. I watched your videos.

Varia theme, version 1.5.3

Chrome 84 on Windows 10

The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

Hi @nalbertson, I’m pretty sure there’s something in your theme that’s hiding the title. I’ll try to make an update to fix that soon.
Also, when printing with Chrome, you can choose to instead send to a PDF file. So there’s no separate button in Print My Blog, it’s an option in your browser. I know you watched the videos, but in case you missed it, here’s the one that explains how to create PDFs in Chrome: https://youtu.be/ngId20fP5I8

Hi @nalbertson, I see the problematic CSS code on your website, but your site uses some type of optimization which makes it hard to tell where it’s coming from, and I can’t find your theme on WordPress.org, so it’s a bit hard to test.

But I believe the problem will be fixed if you add the following “Additional CSS” to your theme (go to https://micheleolendercoaching.com/wp-admin and log in, then under “Appearance” choose “Customize”, and in the “Additional CSS” tab, add the following code, and then save):
```
.pmb-posts .site-title{
    margin-top:0px;
}

.pmb-posts .site-title, .pmb-posts .site-description{
    clip:auto;
    position:unset;
}
```
Let me know how it goes!

Good morning. The theme is actually Hever.

I copied the css and this is what I got. I am choosing the “title” in content to print category, nothing in the category above.

Hi @nalbertson, somehow you’ve switched off showing the Site’s title. The link you posted earlier looked better to me.

I did notice this extra CSS would help though:
```
.pmb-posts .site-description{
    marign-top:0px;
}
```
Does that look good to you?

I added the CSS, and I still don’t have the title showing up.

The title shows up when I choose the ebook option – can I create a PDF from that page? I don’t see how I can.

Ah, I see I had a mistype, it should be:
```
.pmb-posts .site-description{
    margin-top:0px;
}
```
And I think the title isn’t showing up for you now just because you’ve UNselected “Site Title” (see https://i.imgur.com/Ly6bCEc.png).

This is the URL that you should get sent to once you’ve checked that: https://micheleolendercoaching.com/?post-type=post&order-date=asc&order-menu=asc&statuses%5B0%5D=publish&taxonomies%5Bcategories%5D%5B0%5D=50518635&dates%5Bafter%5D&dates%5Bbefore%5D&show_site_title=1&show_site_tagline=1&show_title=1&show_id=1&show_featured_image=1&show_content=1&post_page_break=on&columns=2&font_size=normal&image_size=medium&links=include&rendering_wait=200&print-my-blog=1&format=pdf

Ah, and I see your theme is also removing each post’s title (I didn’t notice that before too).

To fix that from the theme, you’d use this custom CSS:
```
.pmb-posts .entry-header {
    display: block !important;
}
```
And here’s a video where I use the above link to save a PDF from your site: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1c6Is9P1pM2XVtUm974kroHlz9eN4Q3yz/view . I hope that helps!

Bummer, still not working. I am moving onto copy and paste into a word document – UGH

I felt so close to getting this and would be super excited if I still could!

I added the print PDF button to the post page and it does not show the title either. Where would I look to see if I have “turned off” the title?

Ah good job!

Yeah sorry that Hever theme is doing things in a way that I wouldn’t have expected (specifically, hiding titles and other content). In the new version I’m hoping to move away from relying on the themes because experiences like yours happen quite often, which is frustrating.

Anyways, they look good now! Well done!

Best wishes!
