Removal of H1 entry-title text

I would like the words “It’s Rotary, but maybe not what you’re expecting” (“It’s Rotary, but maybe not what you’re expecting”) in the header to be deleted – I don’t seem able to edit (I imported from a wordpress.com site with the Maywood theme which is not available on my hosted site)

I have found the section in the source code (below) but cannot find the right file and in any case I am not confident of editing the file.

Are you able to delete those words as well as any white space between ‘Home’ and the image?, or advise me how to do so. Perhaps advise the code to be added to the Additional CSS section?

<header class=”entry-header has-text-align-center header-footer-group”>

<div class=”entry-header-inner section-inner medium”>

<h1 class=”entry-title”>Home</h1>
<div class=”intro-text section-inner max-percentage small”>
<p>It’s Rotary, but maybe not what you’re expecting</p>
</div>

</div><!– .entry-header-inner –>

</header><!– .entry-header –>

Hi, if you’re logged into the site and looking at the homepage, if you have the admin bar enabled you should see a ‘Edit Page’ button on there. Click on that, it should take you directly to your configured homepage.

From there, you should be able to modify the page content removing the text you mentioned as well as other content.

Thanks but that takes me to the page content, not the header? It starts below the featured image. The bit that needs editing is between ‘Home’ and the featured image.

How do you have your homepage configured? Looking at the source code for the theme, it is showing ‘It’s Rotary, but maybe not what you’re expecting’ is set as the excerpt for the post/page. But by default, that should only display on a single post/page and not the homepage.

Do you have any plugins active that allow excerpts to be added to pages? Maybe something like an SEO plugin or something along those lines?

If you remove the excerpt for that page, it should remove it. Otherwise, if you don’t want to do that and remove the excerpt, you can add the following into Appearance->Customize->Additional CSS
```
.home .entry-header .intro-text {
	display: none;
}
```

No, no plugins/excerpts of that nature. The offending text was in the Header in the Maywood theme (where it could be edited) that was imported to the managed wordpress site (TwentyTwenty theme where there is no provision to edit or insert a header)
I have added the code and that has fixed the issue (externally)
Thanks for your help

with the Maywood theme which is not available on my hosted site

on a side note:
you can actually download the theme Maywood from WordPress.com and then upload it as a theme to your WordPress.org site:

download from https://public-api.wordpress.com/rest/v1/themes/download/maywood.zip

expect it to be a bit different in the dashboard compared to what it was in WordPress.com

Don’t use CSS do hide/delete elements. It’s not good way to do that. Better go to:
/wp-content/themes/twentytwenty/template-parts
find file entry-header.php open it, and delete entire content. Save the file, and that’s all.
