change post header and title for posts to standard

  • I would like to set 1 image for all posts as the header image for the posts (updates) page on my site. Also, I would like the site title (the logo) to maintain, instead of the post title.
    Currently, when I click on a post, it loads the page with the featured image as the header image, and the post title instead of the site title.
    Website is newglobal.aalto.fi
    I need the featured image for the plugin I’m using to get the posts to appear in a grid.
    About the title:
    I’ve tried some different things, managed to take out the author and arrow from the header image on posts, but can’t figure out where to change the title.

    Hi there, to have the same image as a header image on all posts, you can use the following CSS and then replace URL_OF_IMAGE between the quote marks with the image you wish to use as the header image on single post pages.

    .site-header {
    background: url("URL_OF_IMAGE") no-repeat scroll center center / cover rgba(51, 71, 61, 0.05);
}

    To have the site title image/description to show on single post pages, you will need to add sidebar-single.php to your child theme and then edit that file so that it looks like this:

    <?php
/**
 * The Sidebar containing the main widget areas.
 *
 * @package Bushwick
 */

the_post();
?>
<header id="masthead" class="site-header" role="banner">
	<div class="site-branding">
		<h1 class="site-title"><a href="<?php echo esc_url( home_url( '/' ) ); ?>" title="<?php echo esc_attr( get_bloginfo( 'name', 'display' ) ); ?>" rel="home"><?php bloginfo( 'name' ); ?></a></h1>
		<p class="site-description"><?php bloginfo( 'description' ); ?></p>
	</div>
</header><!-- #masthead -->

<?php
rewind_posts();

    Note there is a blank line below rewind_posts()

    What I did was to open sidebar-index.php and copy out the <header> section and replace the post title stuff that was in sidebar-single.php.
