    I upgraded WP to 3.4 which broke my site. I did a little reading and renamed the folder which reverted to the default theme. I then via the themes / install theme re-installed the fast-food theme (which looks ilke 3.2.1).

    Everything was default so I re-created my custom menu and things are starting to look good again except on key thing. The site name is missing from the header. Under header/preview I see my image as well as the text, but if you look at the website, it’s blank. You can see the site http://www.debarywoods.org/ and can confirm. The other problem I noticed is that some browsers (so far FF and Opera) are showing the mobile menu and NOT the site, so they have to click desktop view to see the site correctly!

    I figured I would check the developers site (http://www.twobeers.net/) but it seems there on strike!

    Any help or workarounds is appreciated.

  • I have the same problem although I am using the dkret3 theme.

    I upgraded to WP 3.4 yesterday and my header text has gone walkabout. The site is http://www.khpa.co.uk

    I have added the theme support code to the function.php file in the vain hope that this might be the cause but this has made no difference to anything.

    Any help or advice very much appreciated. Andy R

    I am also seeing this problem, I’m also using the dkret3 theme, on examining the page source for the site I found this:

    #site-title,
    #site-description {
    display: none;
    }

    It appears in the <style> tag near the top of the source (<head> section) which at least tells us why the title and description are not shown. They do appear in the HTML further down. It looks like this part of the page is generated in the call ‘wp_head()’. So far I’m not sure what is causing this bit of CSS to be generated and whether it is the dkret3 theme or WP – suspect it is WP.

    Further investigation leads to the following post:
    http://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/55409/use-add-theme-support-instead-of-add-custom-image-header-in-wordpress-3-4

    It looks like a change is needed to the themes to make them compatible with WP 3.4 or maybe WP 3.4 needs to have a fix to ensure backwards compatibility works fully.

    The theme needs to be updated.

    For anyone using the dkret3 theme the following works, edit library/functions/core.php under the dkret3 theme directory. Find the line in function ‘dkret_custom_header’:
    <?php if ( get_theme_mod(‘header_textcolor’) == ‘blank’ || defined( ‘NO_HEADER_TEXT’ ) ) : ?>

    And replace with (i.e. remove check for NO_HEADER_TEXT):
    <?php if ( get_theme_mod(‘header_textcolor’) == ‘blank’ ) : ?>

    This isn’t the right answer but is a workaround! It’s getting late but to me it looks like NO_HEADER_TEXT is getting defined differently in WP3.4 which causes dkret3 to add the styling to hide the title and description text. Hopefully someone more familiar with WP can look into this more.

    Thanks andi10, I now have my header back.
