Displaying Site Title and Tagline

Pinbin
1

Hello

Thanks for the great themes. I know that Pinbin is a few years old and perhaps not as well supported as previously but I have just discovered this theme and it is perfect for a site I want to develop.

A major problem I’m having is how to display the site title and tagline. It is not appearing on the posts or static pages at all.

I have found some custom CSS as below that partly fixes the issue but creates two further problems.

  1. I can’t display title and tagline separately - it is both or none. If I remove tagline from settings completely, the dividiing line between them on the page still remains.
  2. Because the title is in the header, it shifts the menu down and this is problematic when scrolling.

This is the custom CSS I added:
/* Display site title and strapline and format */
head, title { display: block; }
title {font-size: 1.5em; color:
#FFFF; padding-top: 5px; padding-
bottom: 5px; padding-left: 30px}

The first file attached shows output.
The second file shows what happens when scrolling.

Any support/suggestions would be much appreciated.
Thank you
Tony

Hello there,

I hope you are doing well today.

In order to have the tagline removed and have the menu shift to the top of the page you would have to remove the title using the following CSS code:

/*Title removal*/
title {
    display: none;
}

Hi
I may not have explained the problem clearly.
The point is that I am trying to add the site title to the page, not remove it.
The custom CSS code I added did this, but in such a way that it created other display problems.
There does not appear to be any standard option available in the theme to display the title and/or tagline.
Please can you advise me how I might do this.
Thank you
Tony

Thank you for the clarification.

To accomplish this would require modification of the theme files, which beyond the scope of support that we provide here.

I can point you in the right direction:
You’ll need to edit the header.php file, search for tagline and make the edit.
Using FTP access

If you are not a developer then you can consider hiring a developer to develop it for you. You can hire a developer from any freelance site. Colorlib recommends the developer https://www.upwork.com/freelancers/~011652ffec8865c6d5

This forum is a saviour, i have searched this after years and it worked for me
the code that you have mentioned me is working without any problem
The Code that worked for me:
/ Display site title and strapline and format /
head, title { display: block; }
title {font-size: 1.5em; color:
#FFFF; padding-top: 5px; padding-
bottom: 5px; padding-left: 30px}

About where is used the code. I used it on my [office]website and it is really great. I am basically a designer and sometimes I need to search for it and my people at [office] are really strict with the css. Thank you so much.
