Then you will just need to add display:none; in the style sheet to hide the title and tagline…I’ll look closer and tell you where to add this in a minute.
Edit: Find the following in style.css:
#outerWrapper #header a { color:#000000; }and add one line like below to hide the title:
#outerWrapper #header a { color:#000000; display:none; }Find the following:
.description { color:#666666; font-size:0.36em; font-weight:normal; padding-left:35px; }and add the same line to hide the tagline…so it looks like this:
.description { color:#666666; font-size:0.36em; font-weight:normal; padding-left:35px; display:none; }Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: URGENT HELP ON UPGRADING MY CURRENT WP SITEDo I create a file called wpbackup and move all content of the public_html to that file?
Yes…move all WP content to the backup directory. If you have other files/directories in public_html, don’t move them.

In reply to: How to remove title from a static home pagePost a link and we can tell you exactly what code to change. Otherwise, based on my site, find #title a { in style.css and add a display:none; to it. Keep in mind this will remove it from the entire site. If you only want it removed from that page, you can create a custom page template.

In reply to: Secutity Patch without Upgrade..?Just out of curiosity, I looked at a dif between the latest 2.7 and the latest 2.8….319 files with differences. Keep in mind that a lot of functionality has been changed between those versions…theme uploading being one. So, I’m sure most of this is due to bug fixes and new functionality. Not sure how you would determine which are due to security issues.
It may be worth it to try the upgrade again, maybe on a local copy of your site and see if you can fix the plugin compatibility issues.

In reply to: profiles.wordpress.orgMy help here is a bit more sporadic than some of the other members. When I’m free, working on my own stuff on the computer at home, I usually pop in here and help out as much as I can. So, take this for what it’s worth, but the impact of this change for me over the past couple of days is that I don’t follow-up on help I offer here nearly as much. I have to click on “View your profile”, click on one of the threads I posted to, then click on “member” to get back to the forum profile where I can see a list of thread replies…too many clicks for me. Of course, I could bookmark the forum profile, but still I would have to click around to get to the bookmark.
Just a suggestion…for the convenience of those helping out, change the “View your profile” link back to the forum profile until improvements have been made to the other profile. I’m sure the other profile will be great once it’s developed, but, for now, I think it may only result in a negative impact on the amount and timeliness of help (in particular, follow-up on initial help) provided here.

In reply to: Copying uploads from one site to anotherThere are values in the db that make the files appear in the admin media area. Is this a new site you are copying to? If so, it may be easier to just copy the complete site to the other site. See the following videos for a few ways to do that.
