• In Firebug, this is the code for the heading/text I want to remove:

    .page-title {
        color:
        margin-bottom: 1.313em;
        text-transform: uppercase;
    }

    I’m using a child theme. Do I find this code in the parent and remove it…or?

  • No, do not modify parent theme files – that’s the point of using a child theme. Try:

    .page-title {
       display: none;
    }

    Right on WPyogi.

    If the code for 3 words of text I want to remove below, appears as this: html, body, div, span,… thead, tr, th, td

    then

    {
        border: 0 none;
        font-family: inherit;
        font-size: 100%;
        font-style: inherit;
        font-weight: inherit;
        margin: 0;
        outline: 0 none;
        padding: 0;
        vertical-align: baseline;
    }

    would I write it as … font-family: none…?

    Not sure what you are asking – you need to show the CSS selectors too (code above is insufficient to see what you mean).

    Can you post a link to a page where this exists.

    Sorry, I mean that I include:

    font-family: none;

    (which is my question)

    What are you trying to do?

    What are you trying to change on that page?

    I’m trying to make this look like a page, so I want to remove the reference to the category “posted in optimism”

    I would also like to enter some static text above the post title..

    Do you want that entire line of text gone?

    There’s not an easy way to put text above that – you’d need to make a custom template.

    If you want a page with posts on it, you could look at:

    I just want to take out the words, “posted in optimism”.

    I’ll start studying the custom templates.

    Thanks, WPyogi!

    Try:

    .cat-links {
       display: none;
    }

    Great, it worked, but it left one bullet showing..

    If I’m able to successfully make and use a custom template, will its introduction disrupt or break existing content?
