 * I seem to be missing the H1 and H2 tags on my site. Bing first pointed it out
   and I ran SEO doctor which confirms the fact.
 * My site is [http://www.homejane.com](http://www.homejane.com)
 * Any help gratefully appreciated.

 * Need to find the template and change the H3 tag to H1 if you wanted it. But really
   it won’t have any big impact. If you aren’t comfortable on changing templates
   I would just leave as is.

 * Thank you very much, Aaron. I don’t mind blowing up my site once in awhile. Which
   file should I look in?

 * They are all different. But I’d first go to appearance -> editor
 * Then index.php could be your home page.
    single.php is your single blog page.
   page.php is your normal page.
 * Do a search in the template for <h3> and change to <h1>. Now this will most likely
   change the appearance of your titles also (make them bigger).

 * If you figure it you then you might want to consider a child theme for the permanent
   changes. This would be only useful if you plan on updating your template to newer
   versions.

 * I do have a child theme. I will let you know what I find.

 * I found the h3 tags in single.php and page.php. But I don’ t have an index php
   only functions php. I ran SEO doctor after making changes and it still shows 
   the H1 and 2 tags missing.

 * Your normal pages from page.php are H1 now. All the links in your menu go to 
   pages with H1.
 * As for your home page it could be a lot of places really if it is not in index.
   php. Just need to keep looking.

 * I really appreciate it, Aaron. In the chid.css I see this. Could it be here:?
 * .hp-heading-title h2, hp-heading-text-title h2 {
 *  margin:0;
    padding:3px 0; }
 * .hp-heading-text-title h2 {
 *  border-bottom: 1px solid #272448 ;
    background: url(‘[http://www.homejane.com/app/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/Jane-logo-23-272448.png&#8217](http://www.homejane.com/app/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/Jane-logo-23-272448.png&#8217););
   background-repeat: no-repeat; font-size: 18px; padding-left: 48px; line-height:
   41px !important; height: 35px; background-size: 35px; }

 * It won’t be a .css file. That is for styling.
 * The template change will be in a .php file. It could possibly not be in the child
   theme either.

 * That is all that is under child. Just .css. Do you think I might have to get 
   into my file manager in cPanel or should it reside on my site?

 * The theme looks like a premium theme from themeforest so you might need to ask
   them for help. This forum is really just support for the free themes in the directory
   that we all have access to.
 * But yes, you might need to get in the file manager and go to /wp-content/themes/
   realhomes/ and find the file.

 * Thank you, Aaron. Theme Forest never respond to support requests. I couldn’t 
   find anything there.
 * I really appreciate your help.

 * Oh, and by the way. I changed my picture, but not to this thing. Not sure why
   that is popping up.
