Navigation Link on Static Home Page

  • On the static homepage, under my body copy, the text “home” is displayed when rolled over (although it is not visible when not rolled over on). I’m assuming this has to do something with my navigation – I am not sure on how to remove this “home” text. It is preventing any additional information that goes beyond that location on the page from being shown. I am asking for help/advice on how to solve this problem.

    Here is a link to what I am referring to. https://www.victoriaprichard.com/

    Thank you!

  • Hi Victoria

    By looking at your source code it appears that this “Home” is an entry title to the static page. See this:

    h1 class='page-title entry-title'>Home</h1>
						<div class="entry-content">
							<p>Welcome to my website! Click the links at the top to view my work.</p>
<p>Contact me:<br />
[email protected]</p>

    The only other mention of “home” in the code is in your navigation menu which would be correct. This static page you are using for your homepage must have the title “Home” in it. Can you go to pages and edit the title and remove this? If you don’t want any title just erase “Home” and save the page again. Let me know if this doesn’t do the trick

    Thank you for your response! I see what you are talking about.
    I went into my pages and removed the title.

    It seems like it is still restricting other information from being posted. Does this have to with any size measurements I have set up within my code?

    Hmm odd..what other content is on that page that isn’t actually showing up on homepage? is this content you can see in the “visual” tab of that particular page?

    There is a photograph that is also on this page. The top part of the photograph is shown but seems to be cut off where this hidden “Home” text was previously located.

    OK, so I installed Hatch theme on my test environment and have encountered the exact same issue as you. There is nothing you can really do to fix this as this is a theme issue. (unless you know some coding to hack the theme)

    This theme does not play nice with a static home page. The theme was intended to display blog posts on front page in a nice grid type format. In my opinion,I would try another theme that accommodates what you would like

    Okay then, I may try to play around with the code. Thank you so much for all of your help!

    Not a problem at all. I was going crazy trying to figrue it out too. Good luck with that theme
