Hello There,

Thanks for writing in! What you have right now is the year archive page. This is not your blog index. To have create your blog index, follow these steps;
1] Please create a page entitled “Blog” and hit the publish button.
2] Go to Settings > Reading > Front page displays and select “Blog” as your Post page.
3] Please go to Appearance > Menus and edit your menu. You need to add the newly created Blog page as one of your menu items.

For more information about creating the blog index page, please check out the codex here:
https://codex.wordpress.org/Creating_a_Static_Front_Page#Creating_a_Static_Front_Page

Thank you very much. But, How about these other questions I had posted?

• I’m password protecting two of the posts… and are wondering how to use a different color for the word: PROTECTED. Right now it’s using the same color as the blog title itself
• I’d also like to change the hover color of each post title… right now as I hover each title it turns to blue… but I’d like to change that.
• The link used above shows this title: Post Archive by Year. How can I change that? Will that change once I’m able to use: …/blog ? I’d also like to change the font color of that title (it’s currently white)

Hi there,

Did you manage to fix it? There is no white space anymore.
See the attachment.

Thanks.

Please go to Appearance > Customize > Ethos > Blog Title.

Hope this helps.

[Jacko_Pinto]

Thanks for the reply.

I’m afraid I didn’t see the option to add a title on Appearance > Customize > Ethos >

Can you please help?

Hello There,

Sorry for the confusion! In Ethos stack, there is no setting. To add a blog title in Ethos, we need to add a custom function. Since the child theme is already set up, please add the following code in your child theme’s functions.php file

// Add Custom Blog Title for Ethos stack
// =============================================================================
function add_blog_title(){ ?>

  <?php if ( is_home() ) : ?>
  
    <header class="x-header-landmark x-container max width">
      <h1 class="h-landmark"><span>Welcome to my Blog</span></h1>
    </header>

  <?php endif; ?>

<?php }
add_action( 'x_before_view_ethos__landmark-header', 'add_blog_title' );
// =============================================================================

Once added, it will be in white color. To change the color, please go to the customizer, Appearance > Customize > Ethos and change the “Sidebar Widget Headings Color” in to something dark. Or you can just use this code in Appearance > Customize > Custom > CSS

.x-header-landmark .h-landmark {
    color: red;
}

Feel free to choose whichever is easier for you to implement.

Hello There,

The grey background color is the default color you have set in the customizer. Please go to Appearance > Customize > Layout and Design > Background Options and change the “Background color” to white. You can use the color picker or insert directly the hex code #fff.

Hope this helps.

Thank you very much, it worked!

One last thing. I need to add more space on the right of the menu… how can I do this? (please see attached)

Thank you very much for your help!

Hi There,

Your navbar links are aligned with your logo, so in order that your site look good It is better to add margin to the whole section.

Not that your logo will get smaller by doing that.

.x-navbar-inner {
     margin-right: 80px;
}

Let us know your toughts.

Thanks

Joao
