Hi @saxamo,
I was wondering if there is any easy way in the free version to make the post page look like the blog page just at the top.
Go to your site’s customizer (Dashboard > Appearance > Customize), then Blog > Single Posts and enable “Above title” for meta position. Here is your visual guide for this.
I would also like the blog text color to be the same as the post page.
There is separate text color for blog archive page, that is located under Customize > Blog > Blog Archives > Style > Excerpt color, while the text color on single post page uses Body Text color option under Customize > Colors > General. You should choose the same color for both.
Hope this reply helps.
Regards,
Kharis

Thanks for the reply.. I tried all that and I did get the meta position to change.. I cannot for some reason get the text color to be the same as on the Blog page. I tried it a few times but the visual customizer doesn’t show the change. I will continue to play around with that.
I wanted to make the title on the single post page smaller so I inspected the page and saw this
single .entry-header .entry-title {
font-size: 32px;
}
It was 48px, so I changed it to 32 but again in the visual customizer the size does not change. I might have the wrong CSS.. Thoughts? Thanks for the help!
I forgot the . in front.. lol.. okay I will keep going thanks!

Odd question.. could changing that meta position add anything to the site.. Once I made that change and then look at the source code I now how this:
<meta property="og:title" content="GumDrop Goblins" />
<meta property="og:description" content="“The dark net is a world of power and freedom making it easier to explore every desire, to act on every dark impulse, to indulge every neurosis.”" />
<meta property="og:url" content="https://gumdropgoblins.com" />
<meta property="og:image" content="https://gumdropgoblins.com/wp-content/uploads/facebookpost.jpg" />
<meta name="twitter:card" content="summary_large_image">
<meta name="twitter:title" content="GumDrop Goblins" />
<meta name="twitter:description" content="“The dark net is a world of power and freedom making it easier to explore every desire, to act on every dark impulse, to indulge every neurosis.”" />
<meta name="twitter:image" content="https://gumdropgoblins.com/wp-content/uploads/twitterpost.jpg" />
<strong>
THIS IS NEW FOR SOME REASON NO PLUGINS ADDED:</strong>
<meta property="og:title" content="GumDrop Goblins – Drowned by the screams of decadence. A call to arms…" />
<meta property="og:description" content="Drowned by the screams of decadence. A call to arms..." />
<meta name="twitter:card" content="summary_large_image">
<meta name="twitter:title" content="GumDrop Goblins – Drowned by the screams of decadence. A call to arms…" />
<meta name="twitter:description" content="Drowned by the screams of decadence. A call to arms..." />
IT WAS SOCIAL ROCKET> IT’S BEEN THERE FOR DAYS BUT CLOUDFLARE WAS NOT PURGED SO IT NEVER SHOWED UP TILL I PURGED TONIGHT>> SHAME> I LIKE SOCIAL ROCKET BUT YOU CAN’T REMOVE THE META INFORMATION IT ADDS TO THE SITE>

Try going to Appearance > Colors > General; and change the color for Body Text. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1-wtm9izWK0lEUHyRaDdNs7ltV9AB9Z7D/view?usp=sharing

It should not. Perhaps one of your active plugin added that.

I have done that.. as you can see in this photo.. but no matter how many times I purge the cache it does nothing to the main page.

I have ultimately tried everything i can think of. but.. I just cannot change the color of the page. I am living with it.

The color you want to change is the EXCERPT color in blog archives. That is the one that changes the main page body text.
So Customize > Blog > Blog Archives > Style > EXCERPT COLOR
Whew.. Glad I kept nosing around.. Thanks! You said it in your first reply, but it did not make sense at that point until I saw the inspection information. Thanks for taking the time to work on this with me. Have a great day 🙂
