I have dug through every setting and haven't been able to come up with anything.

Many thanks, gregwp!

Should be the "Tagline" option, second down.

I can remove it -- and the title, which I don't want to do -- by unchecking a header text box under "Appearance". But I don't see any way to edit the header text or site description text.

This should be very easy task, since it's such a basic item ... but I don't see any option for doing this.

I hope someone hear can point me to the magic place.

I'm having trouble getting the title and tagline I want appearing in search engines and Facebook shares. When I set up my blog, which right now focuses on promoting an event, I used a "mystery" tagline, knowing that I could change it anytime in general settings when it was time for the mystery to be unveiled. So I did... and the old tagline and title (which was also changed) still appear in search engines. Both appear fine on the browser's tab, but the older texts appear in searches and FB shares. Where do I find this older texts? Where does Google, FB, etc. go get this, so I can change it to what I already confgured in the general settings?

This is quite annoying because the old tagline simply makes no sense anymore, due to the communication plan set up for this event. Thanks in advance for any help!

Thanks for the advice. After posting I removed the taglines temporarily, but I will put them back and try what you said soon.

Like your blog - very wide range of content on there!

This theme is awesome. So you did choose it for your start.

Your blog also looks nice.

As regards your query, may you try putting selected text in the 'excerpts', and also using tags and putting your posts under some categories of your choice.

Hope the above advice works.

I only joined wordpress.com this week so am having to learn very quickly so excuse me if this is a stupid question.

Have started a blog (http://teamfootball.wordpress.com/) and have managed to get round most of the problems I've encountered except one.

I am using the Sunspot theme. The articles (posts) are appearing fine on their individual pages but, on the homepage, the tagline is mixed in with the body text of the article.

I don't mind what the solution is - to remove the body text entirely from the homepage, to change the colour or create a gap somehow - but nothing I have tried has worked.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

RD

#site-description {
font-size: 2.5rem;
}

If you want to reduce the white space below the tagline, adjust the bottom margin here:

#description {
margin-bottom: 2.4225em;
}

White space above tagline determined by these two (part in one, part in the other).

#main {
padding-top: 1.615em;
}

#access {
margin-bottom: 1.615em;
}

.entry-header .entry-title {
    color: #826942;
}

This will not change post titles if you are also doing posts.

Now I need to change the font color of the menu name as it appears on the page itself. I have done this for the home pade with this code

.page-id-42 {
color:#826942;
}

Is there a way I can change the font color for all page titles at once without having to specify each page-id seperately ?

.main-navigation .current-menu-item > a, .main-navigation .current-menu-ancestor > a, .main-navigation .current_page_item > a, .main-navigation .current_page_ancestor > a {
color: #636363;
}

The would be for all other menu item label colors.

.main-navigation li a {
color: #6A6A6A;
}

Edit the color codes as desired.

I'm using the Tetris theme, which automatically includes a banner for my site's tagline. I'd like to get rid of both the tagline and the white banner itself.

Also, my menu options are displaying as a vertical list in my header. What's the best way to turn them into a horizontal list?

I'm very new to WordPress and CSS, so if your response includes editing the code, please be very specific about what steps I need to take.

Thanks!
