Add special headlines

  • On the very top of my page I want to display a single line super headline, something like courier bold 50px. I want to edit this headline via the wp-admin. This headline has completely nothing to do with a single post. Basicly that just like those cnn.com breaking news: https://www.cnn.com/. Just now the headline says “FIRE AND WATER”.

    How can I do this?

  • I would make a tagline – there’s one on my blog.

    css:
    #tinfo {margin: 0 auto;text-align:center;background-color:#fff;font:.8em trebuchet, georgia, serif;color:#333;padding-top:6px;padding-bottom:6px}

    header.php
    <div id="tinfo">Karma man, just remember Karma. Treat things nice and nice things happen to you. &copy; Claire</div>

    If you want that at the very top, it will need to go above the header div – depending on your theme, that could be tricky.

    And to change, just edit either to suit. That help ?

    Thanks – but honestly I want to be able to edit that tagline on the road via the /wp-admin on my browser. is that possible?

    Yes – you edit header.php (or header template) in Presentation > Theme Editor.

    In combo with podz’s suggestion, if you don’t use the blog tagline for anything (Options > General), you could use it here by modifying the tinfo div from above:

    <div id="tinfo"><php bloginfo('description'); ?></div>

    Then just edit the Tagline field whenever you want to change it on your blog.

    That’s a great idea!
