    My host keeps saying it’s wordpress or my ip, my ip says it’s wordpress, wordpress keeps saying it’s my host. 🙁

    ok they are all disabled, but I still can’t access if I am using my IP

    yes, I just worried about where you said to switch themes. Off to disable plug ins!

    Thank you Steve—sorry if this is a dumb question, but will I be able to go back to the Espied theme after I do this?

    Just want to know if all the time I spend on this over the last month is going to go away–I’ll still try this but I’d rather know going in!

    The only plug ins I have are:

    Akismet anti-spam
    Easy Google fonts
    Jetpack
    Post types order
    Welcome to WordPress

    Hi George thank you—I will believe anything if I can get this fixed! I’ll amend my statement to “I am being blocked by my own wordpress site!” 😊

    I have been talking to my host (for 4+ hours) and they insist it isn’t them.

    I haven’t installed any security plug ins. Could another type of plug in be blocking me, and how can I tell?

    Oh my reply got eaten, sorry for delay.

    • You were right, when I cleared my browser cache it all looks good!

    • I didn’t explain this clearly. I would like the tag collection pages to display the tag at the top. Like on this page it would say “Writing.”
    http://mikkihalpin.com/project-tag/writing/
    It would be nice if that happened automatically but I could make them as header images that appear below the site header….

    • New one 🙂 Is there a way to get embedded videos to be center-aligned? I’ve tried adding some html to the embed code, and choosing the alignment on the header for the block, but they won’t do it. Examples:
    http://mikkihalpin.com/portfolio/transamerica/
    http://mikkihalpin.com/portfolio/a-hard-days-night/

    Movies in the WordPress player are fine:

    Thank you ADAM!

    That made the menu links white and in the right font—they are blue on mouseover, tho, and now there is blue around the upper right hand corner? Here is a screen shot. Maybe I should just live with it, wish I could magically change the blue to green! https://imgur.com/a/NJYoBQU

    New question–is there a way to put a header on tag pages? Like this page that is all the portfolio projects tagged “games” http://mikkihalpin.com/project-tag/games/

    Serious question is there a way I can write to your boss or something and tell them how helpful you are? I am in awe

    I LOVE U!

    That’s Montserrat Extra Bold, which is the same font used for project titles (“Award-Winning Site Development” on this page http://mikkihalpin.com/portfolio/redken-color/).

    It would be great if we could make the text white, or if not white, then the same green as the links on the rest of the site.

    And then either make that “Search” square black-and-white (maybe that wouldn’t show up very well?) or green.

    UPDATE: I got the hamburger menu back to black!
    it was this (I had changed it to white)

    .sidebar {
    background-color: black;
    }

    But is there anything to be done about the blue??

    1. If we could at least get rid of the blue square?
    2. Is it possible to remove the word “Menu”?

    (@mikkipedia)

    Thank you!

    1. Green links instead of blue
    I did it?! WE DID IT?

    2. Hamburger menu
    You think something I did turned it white?
    Here is how I would like it to look

    Or at least have it be black and change all the blue to green?

    Here is the custom CSS I have done

    /* Site BG Color and Text */
    .site {
                background-color: #000000;

    OK! We are getting there.

    1. Link colors

    This should be changeable via Appearance > Customize > Colours. Are you seeing those options there?

    If not, you’ll need some CSS for that. Have you added CSS relating to this during the build?

    No, the only option under Appearance>Customize>Colors is “Header text color.”

    I don’t think I have added CSS relating to this during the build but I’ll paste all of my CSS at the end of this post for you to look at?

    2. Hamburger menu
    I think it looks so strange? This is what I see . But I just looked at another site using Espied and I guess that is how it looks. Is it possible to make mine black like theirs?

    3. Argh about the horizontal nav but oh well 😊. Yeah I thought I was being clever with the portfolio squares but it is a mess on mobile so I have to get rid of them. I’ll just put then in the hamburger I guess.

    4. So another thing about the header. On the Espied page they show a site with a big header image–I’m talking about the white block that says “Hello! We’re Espied. This is our new portfolio.”

    Where would I go to add something like that? Is that this?

    @aleone89 THANK YOU SO MUCH!!
    I hope I can ask a few more?!

    1. The desktop view for the portfolio pages tends to squish everything into a narrow middle column, is there anything I can do about that? I made a test post with a superwide image and it still happened: http://mikkihalpin.com/portfolio/test/

    2. I did something to the hamburger menu 😳. It now pops open and takes over the screen and is huge and ugly. Any thoughts??

    3. Is there any way to change the color for links and followed links? Like the way the ones on this page are blue: http://mikkihalpin.com/portfolio/lenny/

    I think I am down for them just being white, since they have an underline? But if they need to be a color then I would probably want to make them #a1aa3d, and the bold for followed.

    4. On the tag pages like http://mikkihalpin.com/portfolio/writing/, is there a way to center the project titles and make them white? or just get rid of them?

    5. SORRY SO MANY THIS HAS TAKEN OVER MY LIFE ADAM. Ok you know how this page here on wordpress.org has that top nav with “News,” “Download & Extend,” “Learn,” “Community,” etc? Is there a way to do that in Espied?

    THANK YOU ADAM

    Update: I managed to fix “B” but in the process I murdered the hamburger menu altogether, help!

    Since I fixed one thing maybe I can add another request? I would love to change the font of the project title in the hover on the home page. I tried both of the codes below and they didn’t work.

    .project-info .entry-title {
    font-family: Poppins;
    }

    h2.project-title {
    font-family: Poppins;
    }
