Home page has 2 different names

Hi @merewoman,

Have you checked in Appearance > Menus? It is possibly added in there twice with two different names.

Kind Regards,
Tim

Hi Tim

Thank you for your reply.

I have checked the menus, there is no page named ‘Look on the bright side’. I don’t understand where the link has come from.

I’ve taken a screenshot of my menus but I can’t see how to post it.

Kind regards

Susie

I have uploaded a screenshot here:

Hi @merewoman,

Thanks for the reply and screenshot.

It looks like this may actually be added by your theme. You could hide it in CSS. The below CSS code should do the trick:

.toptitle.keyboard-dropdown {
display:none;
}

I tested from my side and it seems to work okay. ??

Kind Regards,
Tim

Thank you very much Tim. That’s so kind of you.

I have never ventured into CSS, no idea how to start! I will investigate. ??

Hi @merewoman,

CSS is fantastic! It can really help you to design, adapt, and tweak you sites visual elements at a very fine level.

Please do send a reply if you need any further assistance with this. ??

Kind Regards,
Tim

Thank you once again Tim.

I am reading up on how to backup my site and will then tackle CSS. ??

It is good to know there is help at hand if needed. I’m a WordPress novice and having spent many hours trying to design a site I’m terrified at the thought of messing it up at this late stage.

Kind regards

Susie

Hi Tim

I’m ready to do it – can you tell me where in the CSS style sheet I add the code, please?

Susie

Hi Susie,

Great idea to backup first, CSS changes don’t normally cause too much trouble – but better safe than sorry! ??

Well done on your site by the way, it looks really good – especially if you are new to WordPress. The WP community is fantastic and is comprised almost entirely of volunteers, it’s really awesome.

To add custom CSS to your site, you can go into Appearance > Customise and there should be a ‘Custom CSS’ option there where you can paste in the CSS code I gave you. Some themes have a ‘Theme Options’ section too where you can put it instead but I would recommend trying in Customiser first.

Please let me know how you get on. ??

Kind Regards,
Tim

Hi Tim

I have backed up (new thing learned!).

Once I am into the Customise CSS option, where in there does the code go? Anywhere, or is there a particular place/line number?

Thanks very much for the nice comments. I am enjoying the learning process.

Best wishes

Susie

Hi Susie,

Fab! Anywhere in the custom CSS box is fine, if you already have code in there just append it to the end.

Kind Regards,
Tim

That didn’t work for me. The unwanted link is still there.

Hi Susie,

2,300+ lines of custom CSS?! Are you sure that’s in the custom CSS and not in a theme/plugin file? It’s highly recommended to never edit a theme, plugin, or core file as the next update they receive will remove it.

Kind Regards,
Tim

Oh dear, I must have made a boo-boo!

I’ll remove that line of code and save the file, and then try to find the right place. ??

Thanks for your patience Tim. ??

Susie

Is this the right place to put the code, Tim?
