   wp-content/themes/pegase/functions.php on line 272 -Secondly, if I wanr to modifie
   the format. size, colour, titles, etc; it is just that I can’t.

 * Where did you download the theme from? Have you tried switching to the default
   theme to rule out any theme-specific problems?

 * Hello!!
    I did how you said me, but in our site wwww.ecole-pegase.fr the blog
   is “inside” our page; so i did it and all the information was errased.
 * In themes, i decided to retur to our old theme, everything is like the beginning.
 * 🙁
