Removing title from static homepage

    Hi
    Recently moved my Dad’s website onto wordpress and am impressed with general ease of use. Have gone for ignite theme and have got it looking how we want it with only a little bit of additional css.
    However, I am struggling with the css needed to remove the title from the homepage (and the homepage only). Currently there is excess white space between the header menu and the image I have used instead of a title.
    I think I need
    ?????.page-title {
    display:none;
    }
    But just not sure what should go instead of the ???.
    If anyone can help I would be very grateful.

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    Thanks for using Ignite!

    The following CSS will work nicely to hide the title on the homepage only:

    .home .entry-header {
  display: none;
}

    Thanks Ben
    The white space is still the same size. I note that the ‘title’ is still editable when I go to edit that page so presume this code doesn’t remove it, just stops it being displayed (it wasn’t actually showing before as it had been left blank and I don’t have a specific background colour).
    I’ve seen lots of posts about minimising padding but I don’t believe I should need anything that complex as I believe the spacing would be sorted if I could just remove the title ‘block’ (or does it have to remain for the permalink?)
    Still very new to this so apologies if I have missed something basic!

    Okay I understand now. The title is hidden (which is empty anyway), but the remaining space is on the post container itself. You can remove that spacing on the homepage only with the following CSS:

    .home .entry {
  padding-top: 0;
  margin-top: 0;
}
