Removing Showcase theme page titles below menu.

Start by creating a child theme for your customisations.

Working on the child thing right now. Question: I want to upload my child template; but I have not been working with a local setup of files. Will my child theme be able to access the necessary information from the parent when I upload it?

What I have to upload:

/*
Theme Name:     Twenty Eleven Child
Description:    Child theme for the Twenty Eleven theme
Author:         Tim Hynd
Template:       twentyeleven
Version:        0.1.0
*/

@import url("../twentyeleven/style.css");

Also I am not sure if there are any other files in particular I need to extend. Should I be creating a child for showcase as well? I have one just in case; but I wasn’t sure what the import url should be. I have this:

/*
Theme Name:     Showcase Child
Description:    Child theme for the Showcase theme
Author:         Tim Hynd
Template:       showcasechild
Version:        0.1.0
*/

@import url("../twentyeleven/showcase.php");

Would it be best for me to work from a local setup? If so how do I go about setting one up?

Will my child theme be able to access the necessary information from the parent when I upload it?

If created & uploaded correctly, yes. The basic child theme only needs to contain a style.css file. Once that is active and working, you can create a copy of the showcase.php template file in your child theme and start editing the child’s copy to your heart’s content. ??

Sounds good to me, once I’ve got it up and running do you know which part I need to edit to remove the page title?

Thank you for all your help.

Sorry – it’s content-intro.php that you need to copy into the child. Remove:

<header class="entry-header">
		<h2 class="entry-title"><?php the_title(); ?></h2>
	</header><!-- .entry-header -->
