 * Hello,
 * I am trying to make the title of my page [http://www.swimquest.uk.com](http://www.swimquest.uk.com)
   transparent, however the code I have put into the CSS below doesn’t seem to be
   working:
 *     ```
       .site-title {
       	width: 305px;
           color: transparent;
       }
       ```
   
 * At the moment I have just deleted the title from the settings page to get around
   this issue, but this is not great for my SEO. Would you be able to help?
 * Many thanks,
 * Alice

 * Hi Alice!
    What is your goal here? To hide the title completely?
 * Have you tried the display:none?
 *     ```
       .site-title {
       	display: none;
       }
       ```

 * Hello,
 * I just want the logo to show (as it is in the top left) however I do not want
   to be able to see the title text over the top of it.
 * If I use the ‘display none’ code, it seems to remove my logo too. I think I just
   need to make the title transparent.
 * I have just added the title back into the settings so you can see what I mean…
   [http://www.swimquest.uk.com](http://www.swimquest.uk.com) (you can see the title
   over the logo)
 * Thanks for your help …
 * Alice

 * The text you are referring to seems to be gone. You have applied display: none
   to it. I would suggest to clear your browser cache, because it is only showing
   in your browser. Are you using any cache plugins on your site? Try another browser
   and you can see that the text is gone.

 * I can see it on three different computers … and can still see it even when I 
   have cleared cache and history. When I try to use ‘display:none’ this just removes
   the logo entirely …

 * But do you have a cache plugin installed on your site? the display: none is already
   applied to the site description like this:
 *     ```
       .site-description {
           display: none;
       }
       ```

 * Yes – I have W3 Total Cache installed – sorry for being a pain, I’m still not
   sure what I should be doing to fix this!

 * Try deactivate it or uninstall it and see if that helps.

 * I found this guide for you to try: [http://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/how-to-fix-wordpress-website-not-updating-right-away/](http://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/how-to-fix-wordpress-website-not-updating-right-away/)

 * I’m afraid it’s not helping. I’m not sure it;s that – I just think I haven’t 
   got the right CSS code to make the title transparent.
 * Do you have any other CSS I could try?
 * Thank you so much for your patience!

 * Do you do everything in that guide and it’s still not working?
 * I don’t know what else to tell you. It is showing the right way for me. The display:
   none applied to the site-description should make it go away.
