Site Title And Tagline

It should be rather easy to move things around so the site title and description don’t overlap your logo. How did you add the logo to your site? Did you make a change to the header.php virtual subtemplate? Can you please post a link to your site? It makes it easier to give suggestions.

Thanks For The Reply

Here is the link to my website please check

OK, great. Now, can you please temporarily add in your site title & tagline so I can see how it overlaps? I tried doing it through Chrome DevTools and I didn’t see an overlap; instead, the logo appeared over the site title and description. Thanks.

Yah That’s What I dont want,I just want to add site title and tagline to my website for seo enhancement but don’t want to display it over my website under the logo as it looks weird.

OK, so where do you want the site title & tagline to appear? It’s got to go somewhere.

I have got an expert advice from someone that a website should have a site title and tagline for google recognition,but i don’t want it to display under my logo

Any Other suitable place but not under the logo please

And adding site title and tagline is important according to you or not please suggest me?

It would be great if i could place it at the last footer edge of my website center aligned just above “? 2014 — All Rights Reserved.”

Sorry, I went to bed.

Yes, having a site title and description will generally help search engines correctly index your site. I was also reading up on ways that people hide their site title when they want to use a logo instead of a text title, like moving the site title off the screen so it can’t be seen, and people seem to be split on whether or not that will cause a site to be blacklisted.

In any case, moving the site title to the footer should work. Just move these lines from the virtual header.php subtemplate:

<<?php bfa_if_front_else( 'h1', 'h3' ); ?> id="sitetitle">
	<a href="<?php echo home_url(); ?>"><?php bloginfo( 'name' ); ?></a>
</<?php bfa_if_front_else( 'h1', 'h3' ); ?>>
<p id="tagline"><?php bloginfo( 'description' ); ?></p>

Into the virtual footer.php subtemplate. It looks like you’ve added a new widget area into the footer, so it sounds like you’re familiar with working with the virtual templates. Then just style the site title & tagline the way that you want using CSS.

Hey,thank you very much for your help it has moved to the footer, does it looks good?

It looks good. I’m wondering if the site title should instead read How To Do It Buddy instead of everything being squished together without spacing between the words. That is, I would think people who are doing searches would be more likely to use separate words like how to in their search phrases, and not howtodoitbuddy. But, I’m not a search engine expert by any means, so maybe I’m not the person to give that type of advice.

Thanks,Your advice is valuable to me and i find your point really valid i have make the changes and it’s looking quite better now

I wonder if there is any way i could create a menu right below the logo in a line with all the categories in it ?

You first want to define a second menu that lists your categories. Montezuma supports two different custom menus. If you go to Appearance > Menus and click on the Manage Locations tab, you’ll see an entry for Menu 1 and Menu 2. So what you’ll want to do is create a new menu listing just your categories and select it for Menu 2.

To create a menu of category names, click the Edit Menus tab, then the create a new menu link. Give a name to your new menu and click the Create menu button.

On the left, under the box that’s labeled Pages should be a section labeled Categories. If you do not see it, then click on the Screen Options tab in the upper right corner of the page and check the box labeled Categories. You should now see a section labeled Categories under the section labeled Pages on the left.

Expand the Categories section, then select all of the categories that you want to appear on the menu and click the Add to Menu button. Arrange the menu items in the order that you want them to appear, then click the Save menu button.

Click the Manage Locations tab and select your new menu as Menu 2. Click the Save changes button.

Now go to your header.php virtual sub-template. Look for the function wp_nav_menu. You’re going to want to copy the code for that function and paste it under your logo. You’ll need to change each instance of the number 1 to 2 in your new copy. For example, change menu1 to menu2 for the menu_id and theme_location, and change menu1-wrapper to menu2-wrapper for container_id.

That should do it. The only thing left would be to add any CSS to style the new menu the way that you want.
