    Hello all,

    I’m trying to create a website that has a static front page that allows for some information display and navigation as well as a location where my blog posts will appear. I have been successful in creating this page such that it displays the appropriate icons, header, menu bar along with my posts as they are published. However, I have been unsuccessful in getting the page description for my front page to display below the ‘Home Blog Title’ which is currently “Ahzuumaht Wonders.”

    I have tried changing around the settings for front page displays under Settings>Reading>Front Page Displays but have not been able to get them to work regardless of what I select for ‘front’ or ‘posts’ pages.

    All in all the way the page looks and works now is fine, but I would like to be able to display a paragraph below the “Ahzuumaht Wonders” home blog title on this front page to give readers an idea of what to expect in the posts and prompt them to join in discussions.

    Here’s a link to my page for your reference: ahzuumaht.io

    Thanks!

  • Hi,

    Try to edit templates/home/blog-home.php file, then find the following code block. 

    <div class="clearfix">
	<h3 class="hometitle"><?php echo esc_html($blog_title);?></h3>
</div>

    Then insert your text right after the h3. 

    <div class="clearfix">
	<h3 class="hometitle"><?php echo esc_html($blog_title);?></h3>
	<p>
		Your text goes here
	</p>
</div>

    I’d suggest you to pass it in the child theme mode to prevent theme update issue in the future.

    I hope this reply helps.

    Best,
