    Hello there,
    1. The CSS code did not remove the lines between the posts, but rather removed the lines that were next to text “Recent Posts”. How do we remove the lines between the individual posts? Hmmm.

    2. Thank you for the info on making a full-width screen image. I may hold off on that for now due to all the steps :).

    Looking forward to hearing about how to get rid of the lines…

    Thank you

    Hi Fotis,

    Thank you keeping me in the loop. I did some additional reading on the matter. By gosh, I think we did it! Thank you for your support in this long drawn out process :).

    Love the Olsen Light Theme.

    Thank you so much!

    Hi Fotis,

    Contact Page now reflects the H1 after editing the fullwidth template. Thank you.

    Yes, the link you provided for 12 Days of Christmas does show the H1. The question being raised is for the “My Posts” (menu item) better known as Wellness Posts (page) that was created on the Homepage (Homepage is a static page). A carousel/slider is present on Wellness Posts (page). All of the individual posts on the carousel/slider still have H2, as well as the individual posts that are below the slider. Here is the link for reference:
    https://wellnessforthesingleparent.com/wellness-posts/

    What template needs to be modified now :). Is it part slider php? Not sure which one?

    Thank you, yet again…

    Hello,

    I actually did update to the latest version of Olsen Light before making the recent change to the page.php. When I went into the page.php that was copied by the host company to the child theme, the code said:

    <h2 class=”entry-title” itemprop=”headline”>
    <?php the_title(); ?>
    </h2>
    and I replaced with

    <h1 class=”entry-title” itemprop=”headline”>
    <?php the_title(); ?>
    </h1>

    I still have pages the H1 is not working. Specifically,
    1) My Posts
    2) Contact

    Hmmm….

    Hello,

    I repeated the procedure for the page.php.

    Most of the pages took the change except for pages:

    My Posts
    Contact

    These two pages did not take the change for the H1 heading. Hmmm…

    I am not sure what file to be looking for now?

    Thank you

    Hello,

    I have gone ahead and used Easy Google Fonts (Typography) as a simple way to see when I change the H1 Font to “Lato” what happens.  The actual individual posts we can confirm H1 exists.   We are good there.  Thank you.

    The problem lies now that the titles in all of the “Pages” are not H1.  

    For example, the following pages:

    Why Help Single Parents
    My Story
    My Posts
    Inspiration
    Resources
    Contact

    How do we get pages to have their respective titles as “H1”?

    Thank you

    Good morning,

    Ok, so I reached out to hosting provider and tech support copied the single.php from parent theme to the child theme. From there, I was then able to replace the existing code in the single.php file (located in child theme) as follows

    REPLACED:
    <h2 class=”entry-title” itemprop=”headline”>
    <?php the_title(); ?>
    </h2>
    with

    <h1 class=”entry-title” itemprop=”headline”>
    <?php the_title(); ?>
    </h1>

    Is there anything else that is needed? Is there a way to confirm I did all of this right?

    As I understand it, this will now ensure the H1 heading will be the name/title of the page or post to help with SEO according to Yoast.

    Thank you, thank you.

    Hello,

    How do I copy the single.php file from the parent theme to the child theme?

    Hmmm….

    I can see the single.php file (from the parent theme) when I am in Appearance, Theme Editor by switching from the current activated Child Theme to the Olsen Light Parent theme.

    I can copy the single.php file by using Command C, but I don’t know where to place it in the child theme.

    The child theme presently has the following:
    This child theme inherits templates from a parent theme, Olsen Light.
    Stylesheet
    (style.css)
    Theme Functions
    (functions.php)

    Yikes 🙂

    Thank you.

    Hi Fotis,

    Okay, I was able to figure out the Logo issues through researching some forums.That is resolved.

    Oustanding issue is as follows:

    1) There is no single.php file under the child theme for editing. Maybe I misunderstood. I thought I was to install the child theme first, and then make the edits to the single.php file under the child theme to address the H1 an H2 issue? Not sure what to do…help!

    This is out of my scope of expertise :).

    Thank you.

    Hi Fotis,

    I am just now starting to address this request due to holiday schedule.

    I installed the Child Theme Generator (plugin) to help assist with a child theme and created the child theme.

    I need some assistance as some issues have come up since activating the child theme:

    1) There is no single.php file under the child theme for editing. Maybe I misunderstood. I thought I was to install the child theme first, and then make the edits to the single.php file under the child theme to address the H1 an H2 issue? Not sure what to do…help!

    2) It appears all of the CSS code that was entered in the parent theme is now gone due to the child theme plugin. A lot of the little things I can try to figure out EXCEPT for:

    My logo has now disappeared and defaulted back to Olsen Light. In an attempt to reload my logo now, the logo is too big. I recall there is some code that is needed to eliminate the extra white space.

    Thank you for your continued help.

    Hello,

    Thank you for the recommendations.

    I have tried both third party services:

    1) YouTube – displays six extended videos to watch upon completion of my video
    2) Vimeo – (Basic) displays 3 Staff Pick videos to watch upon completion of my video. As well, no ability to edit the the turquoise colored title in the upper left hand corner of my video.

    In reading the forums, it appears there is nothing that can be done about YouTube of eliminating extended video watching.

    Certainly, if I upgrade to Vimeo Pro it sounds like I can remedy the issues described. The situation is I have a 20 second video that I want to use for my website. I have no other plans on using video moving forward so I hesitate to spend $84/year for Vimeo Pro to host this 20 second video.

    Are we saying that I will need to just accept these issues given my circumstance?

    If I am missing something, your recommendations are welcomed.

    Thank you so much!

    Hello Fotis,

    Thank you very much.

    The recommended code was placed and it worked; my image captions are centered again.

    Note – I am using Olsen Light :).

    Hi Steve,

    Yes, I agree with that and I have redesigned the ads.

    The issue now lies with the blog post “Career and Education”. This blog post is the longest in text body. As a result, all the other blog posts (shorter in body text) are dictated by that long length and end up with excess white space from end of text to the footer.

    How do web designers contend with excess white space from shorter blog posts?

    Thank you for further input!
