 * I was hoping my theme would have a way for me to edit the content in .site-header-
   area but it wont so I am trying to create a new header.
 * I’ve created a header-blog.php file already. My question is what code should 
   I use to create this header for a specific page? Do I have to override the header.
   php code with the new code? How do I make sure this header only displays on one
   page? (I want a little blurb of information on my blog page, with an image, hence
   creating a header for that page only.)
 * Thanks for your help

 * You would need a custom page template and in your page template, you would substitute
   the header-blog.php instead of the get_header() template tag. Check out [https://developer.wordpress.org/themes/template-files-section/page-template-files/page-templates/](https://developer.wordpress.org/themes/template-files-section/page-template-files/page-templates/)

 * Can this work for a category page? Essentially my blog posts will be categorized
   and sit on a ‘page’ that’s blog.
 * Thanks
