   Hi guys,

   I am building my wedding website in the Mixfolio theme. Overall this seems to work nicely, but there's one thing that's bugging me:

   When I mouse over the featured images, the images shows a black box. This box shows normally the post title, but I am not using post titles, so it's just a black spot and does not fit perfeclty into the overall design.

   I can live with it if I have to, but does anybody know whether there is a way to change this black box? Turning off the mouse over would be also an option as long as clicking on the image leads to the post.

   Thanks for any help,

   WolfRam.

   The blog I need help with is lamia2012wolfram.com.

   I don't believe that this can be chnaged with CSS editing. All you can do with CSS is change appearnce. You can't change the way the theme functions and naturally every post must have a title. The title will becaoe a permalink with the date stemp embedded in it. If there is no post title then what would search spiders index?

   If there is no permalinked title then how will visitors access the posts?

   Hi timethief -

   thank for the replies.
   I am designing a wedding website, so in this case it's okay if the blog does not get huge hits through search spiders. :)

   Visitors can access the post through the featured image, which also has text on it. I removed the post titles because even though Mixfolio is a great theme, the post title design leaves much to be desired, I am afraid. I would have used the customization option for Mixfolio, but it says that there are only limited options now, and with this in mind I am not willing to spend 30 bucks for a small change (changing type size and color).

   Nevertheless, really appreciate the answers on such short notice.
