Topic: Show title and description on resources page?

Thanks for writing in! By default, Ethos stack doesn’t have the ability to display a blog page title. In order to do that, we need to customize the blog index template. Since you have your child theme active and ready, please follow the following steps below:
1] Using Notepad or TextEdit or Sublime Text or any text editor, please create a new file in your local machine.
2] Insert the following code into that new file

<?php

// =============================================================================
// VIEWS/ETHOS/_LANDMARK-HEADER.PHP
// -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
// Handles content output of large headers for key pages such as the blog or
// search results.
// =============================================================================

$disable_page_title = get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), '_x_entry_disable_page_title', true );

?>

<?php if ( ! x_is_blank( 1 ) && ! x_is_blank( 2 ) && ! x_is_blank( 4 ) && ! x_is_blank( 5 ) ) : ?>
  <?php if ( is_page() && $disable_page_title == 'on' ) : ?>
  <?php else : ?>

    <?php if ( is_home() ) : ?>

      <header class="x-header-landmark x-container max width">
        <h1 class="h-landmark entry-title"><span>Resources</span></h1>
      </header>

    <?php elseif ( x_is_shop() || x_is_product() ) : ?>

      <header class="x-header-landmark x-container max width">
        <h1 class="h-landmark"><span><?php echo x_get_option( 'x_ethos_shop_title' ); ?></span></h1>
      </header>

    <?php elseif ( x_is_bbpress() ) : ?>

      <header class="x-header-landmark x-container max width">
        <h1 class="h-landmark"><span><?php echo get_the_title(); ?></span></h1>
      </header>

    <?php elseif ( x_is_buddypress() ) : ?>
      <?php if ( x_buddypress_is_component_with_landmark_header() ) : ?>

        <header class="x-header-landmark x-container max width">
          <h1 class="h-landmark"><span><?php echo x_buddypress_get_the_title(); ?></span></h1>
        </header>

      <?php endif; ?>
    <?php elseif ( is_page() ) : ?>

      <header class="x-header-landmark x-container max width">
        <h1 class="h-landmark entry-title"><span><?php the_title(); ?></span></h1>
      </header>

    <?php elseif ( x_is_portfolio_item() ) : ?>

      <header class="x-header-landmark x-container max width">
        <h1 class="h-landmark"><span><?php the_title(); ?></span></h1>
      </header>

    <?php elseif ( is_search() ) : ?>

      <header class="x-header-landmark x-container max width">
        <h1 class="h-landmark"><span><?php _e( 'Search Results', '__x__' ); ?></span></h1>
      </header>

    <?php elseif ( is_category() || x_is_portfolio_category() || x_is_product_category() ) : ?>

      <?php

      $meta  = x_get_taxonomy_meta();
      $title = ( $meta['archive-title'] != '' ) ? $meta['archive-title'] : __( 'Category Archive', '__x__' );

      ?>

      <header class="x-header-landmark x-container max width">
        <h1 class="h-landmark"><span><?php echo $title; ?></span></h1>
      </header>

    <?php elseif ( is_tag() || x_is_portfolio_tag() || x_is_product_tag() ) : ?>

      <?php

      $meta  = x_get_taxonomy_meta();
      $title = ( $meta['archive-title'] != '' ) ? $meta['archive-title'] : __( 'Tag Archive', '__x__' );

      ?>

      <header class="x-header-landmark x-container max width">
        <h1 class="h-landmark"><span><?php echo $title ?></span></h1>
      </header>

    <?php elseif ( is_404() ) : ?>

      <header class="x-header-landmark x-container max width">
        <h1 class="h-landmark"><span><?php _e( 'Oops!', '__x__' ); ?></span></h1>
      </header>

    <?php elseif ( is_year() ) : ?>

      <header class="x-header-landmark x-container max width">
        <h1 class="h-landmark"><span><?php _e( 'Post Archive by Year', '__x__' ); ?></span></h1>
      </header>

    <?php elseif ( is_month() ) : ?>

      <header class="x-header-landmark x-container max width">
        <h1 class="h-landmark"><span><?php _e( 'Post Archive by Month', '__x__' ); ?></span></h1>
      </header>

    <?php elseif ( is_day() ) : ?>

      <header class="x-header-landmark x-container max width">
        <h1 class="h-landmark"><span><?php _e( 'Post Archive by Day', '__x__' ); ?></span></h1>
      </header>

    <?php elseif ( x_is_portfolio() ) : ?>

      <header class="x-header-landmark x-container max width">
        <h1 class="h-landmark"><span><?php echo x_get_option( 'x_portfolio_title' ); ?></span></h1>
      </header>

    <?php endif; ?>

  <?php endif; ?>
<?php endif; ?>

3] Save the file named as _landmark-header.php
4] Upload this file to your server in the child theme’s folder
wp-content/themes/x-child/framework/views/ethos/

Hope this helps.

I made the file just like you said, and uploaded it. Then the website showed the contents of this PHP file on the home page. It was an error. Attached the pic.

Hi Mike,

I am able to find it. I did upload the file _landmark-header.php on this path:/public_html/wp-content/themes/x-child/framework/views/ethos.
The content was this:

<?php if ( ! x_is_blank( 1 ) && ! x_is_blank( 2 ) && ! x_is_blank( 4 ) && ! x_is_blank( 5 ) ) : ?>

    <?php endif; ?>

  <?php endif; ?>
<?php endif; ?>

I am not sure what’s wrong when you did it but it is working now. See attached screenshot.
