Yep my bad, the_excerpt is a WordPress function, it pulls the first 55 words of the post unless a custom excerpt is given (or a <!--more--> tag is present).

If I am not mistaken, in the Post editor – if you change from the [Visual] tab to [HTML] tab,

The post should appear something like:

<strong>Organisation Analyst & International Leadership Coach</strong>
<!--more-->
<p>One of Ireland’s Top 100 Businesswomen (Irish Entrepreneur 2007) and finalist in Image magazine Entrepreneur of the Year 2008, Lorna is an experienced international executive leadership coach, learning facilitator, consultant in organisation analysis, and leadership coaching supervisor/mentor. She has a background in international corporate communications, branding, organisation culture and group relations. Education to Masters level (Organisation Analysis – Grubb Institute UK).</p>

It is whatever that is above this <!--more--> tag that is being applied under the image.

So to your new posts, put whatever you want under your image on the first line, then switch the [HTML] tab and enter a <!--more-->

and see if that works.

Updating quicker than I am, sorry for the disjointed replies.

Okay – so now you need to go to functions.php in the Editor screen.

CTRL+F for the_excerpt — it should be in a block of code that looks like this:

function the_excerpt(){
   ...
   ...
}

But first, if you haven’t – have you tried clicking on the Featured Image and seeing if the image has any information on in on the next screen that pops up?

Okay – it doesn’t appear to be set by a custom field – however I have viewed the source code myself and unfortunately this is mostly unhelpful because once a page renders the PHP functions that call data are translated into raw HTML.

Basically that means that while it might say “Lorna McDowell” in the View Source – the actual code of the page might have <?php get_attachment_metadata('title'); ?> or some other function created to place this data.

If you can go to:

Appearance > Editor and find that About Us Post Template file (it should be called something like aboutus-template.php or something like that.

Then search for “staff-bio”, copy and paste that block of code.

I am not familiar with the Attitude theme, but I would imagine it will be something similiar to the below steps:

1. Appearance > Editor

2. Select “style.css”

3. Go to the bottom of the code, and add:

/* Hide the Page Title */
.page entry-title {
   display: none;
}
/* End Hide Page Title */

4. Click [Update]/[Save]

Should work.

[Edited to remove the Theme modification method – it’s a no no]

Otherwise:

1/ Click on the image inside the “Featured Image” box on the right. It should open a lightbox that has “Attachment Details” — see if there is a Caption and/or Title given for this image and see if changing these changes the page.

2/ Go to Appearance > Editor and look for the file that is called something like “About Us Single Post.php” – click on it, and use CTRL+F to find “staff-bio”

Inside the <h4> tags there should be a <?php code, as well as between the <p> tags – these codes will tell us where it is pulling these values from.

Remember to order your pages by parent too.

Ie:

Page Order 1
Page Order 2
– Page Order 1
– Page Order 2
– Page Order 3
Page Order 3
Page Order 4
– Page Order 1
– Page Order 2

etc.

Set the parent of page the same place as the Order.

Pages > [Page] > Quick Edit/Edit > “Page Order: [___]” box.

It will be on the right hand side of the editor if you went into Page edit mode, or just underneath “Parent” (listed as “Order: [___]”) if you went Quick Edit.

Just to certainly make sure there are no custom fields – if you could please click on “Screen Options” along the very top (in the yellow bar that says about upgrading).

It will drop down a menu, in which will be a checkbox that says ‘Display Custom Fields’ (or something along those lines).

Make sure this is selected, and refresh/navigate back to that post.

If you still don’t see any Custom Fields on the page anywhere let us know!

Can you provide a screenshot of the Custom Fields and Featured Image boxes?

If I was the developer I would put the person’s picture as a Featured Image.

This will be just to the right of the WYSIWYG editor.

Just a note, and I apologise if I’m wrong – but your TITLE is not loading correctly.

I think this might be because in the default TwentyTwelve template it calls the function wp_title() ONLY. This is fine for TwentyTwelve because it appends the default wp_title() function to include the blog name, however, this will not work correctly in a theme if you haven’t set it up the same.

To get your title to display correctly I suggest you use in your header.php:

<title><?php bloginfo('name'); ?> <?php wp_title(); ?></title>

Therefore, even if you aren’t on a page you will always get “Progressive Insanity” as the Title.

I’m not sure which elements you want moved – but if you want to move that MOAUN AABE?? image over purely by CSS (this isn’t the way I would recommend – I’d suggest putting the image in its own separate DIV but this will work regardless)..

Then add this to your style.css:

#logo img { position: absolute; left: 50%; top: 20px; }

That will push that image in between the Progress Insanity title and the right hand edge/image.

BUT, this will then push any other images you use in the logo div – which might not end up how you want it (again I’d suggest putting the image in it’s own DIV or at least give the IMG tag an ID=””)

1. Download and install FileZilla.
2. Open Filezilla and press CTRL+S, CMD+S, or File > Site Manager
3. Click [New Site] – call it whatever – and for the details enter your ftp details. Generally, these will be:
Host: Website URL
Port: 21
Logon Type: [Normal]
Username: (Whatever was emailed to you when you bought the hosting)
Password: (Whatever was emailed to you)
4. Click [Connect]
5. In the Right hand box, navigate to /public_html/wp-content/themes/ (or /public_html/<subdirectory>/… – depending where you installed WordPress to begin with)
6. Create a new folder for your Theme – name it whatever you want.
7. Create a style.css in this folder, and on the first lines paste:

/*
Theme Name:     Theme Child
Theme URI:      https://example.com/
Description:    Child theme for a theme
Author:         Your name here
Author URI:     https://example.com/about/
Template:       OriginalParentThemeName
Version:        0.1.0
*/

8. Voila! You have made a child theme.

Yeah all good now, I have left it in my Setup() function but in my header.php I had a typo in primary-menu.

Thanks again.

Alrighty. Solved. I’ve lost my styles but at least I’ve got all menu items loaded/displaying correctly.

It was a typo of all things.

Thanks for the support.
