How to change H1 tags

  • Hi,

    tried to search, but can’t find the answer. IN my website for better SEO i need to change sidebar h1 tags to h2 or h3. Because now archives, tags cloud has h1 tags too. Where to find them? With css i know the drill.

    Do not edit the theme itself. First create a child theme for your changes.

    In HTML5 (which Elucidate uses) it’s considered correct practice to have an h1 tag for each sectioning element in the html (article, section, nav and aside tags) so I wouldn’t expect to see any SEO penalty from having multiple h1 tags. Having said that if you did want to change this you should create a child theme as esmi suggests otherwise your changes would be removed when a new version comes out (I haven’t had much time lately, but a new version is coming).

    As for where the sidebar heading tags are defined: Take a look at the function elucidate_widgets_init() in functions.php as well as the default widgets in sidebar.php
