How can I change the title on my archive single post pages from “News” to something else?
Hi there,
You may change it in X > Theme Options > Renew > Blog Options > Blog Title.
Hope this helps.
Thanks for the quick response Jade! I was successful in adjusting that Blog Title as you indicated.
My challenge is a bit more complex however. First, I would like to keep “News” (or something similar) for my actual blog page (which is not setup yet, but will be soon). I am using custom post types and I can successfully view summaries of all related posts on an archive page, i.e. www.MYSITE.com/movies. When I click on one of the posts listed on the archive page, I would like that single post to display the archive directory name (or custom post ID), i.e. Movies, instead of the default theme Blog Title.
If you would like, I can setup an ID and PW for you to access my dev site so you can get a better idea of what I am trying to accomplish.
Thanks,
Del
Hello Del,
What you have requested is beyond the default settings of WordPress. You would need a 3rd party plugin to be able to accomplish it. Please check out this link for further information: http://www.wpbeginner.com/plugins/how-to-change-custom-post-type-permalinks-in-wordpress/
Hope this helps.
I have my permalinks set properly and don’t need to adjust them. What I would like to do is get a title/header added to the landing page that shows summaries for my custom post types (…/recognition/) and then also have a custom title/header on the page that displays the single post information for my custom post time (…/recognition/post-title-here). I have attached images of each screen for your reference. And if you show me how to send a private message, I will send you login credentials so you can take a look for yourself if you would like.
Hello There,
To add a title, 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/RENEW/_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 );
$breadcrumbs = x_get_option( 'x_breadcrumb_display' );
?>
<?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 : ?>
<header class="x-header-landmark">
<div class="x-container max width">
<div class="x-landmark-breadcrumbs-wrap">
<div class="x-landmark">
<?php if ( x_is_shop() || x_is_product() ) : ?>
<h1 class="h-landmark"><span><?php echo x_get_option( 'x_renew_shop_title' ); ?></span></h1>
<?php elseif ( x_is_bbpress() ) : ?>
<h1 class="h-landmark"><span><?php echo get_the_title(); ?></span></h1>
<?php elseif ( x_is_buddypress() ) : ?>
<?php if ( x_buddypress_is_component_with_landmark_header() ) : ?>
<h1 class="h-landmark"><span><?php echo x_buddypress_get_the_title(); ?></span></h1>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php elseif ( is_page() ) : ?>
<h1 class="h-landmark entry-title"><span><?php the_title(); ?></span></h1>
<?php elseif ( is_home() || is_single() ) : ?>
<?php if ( x_is_portfolio_item() ) : ?>
<h1 class="h-landmark"><span><?php echo x_get_parent_portfolio_title(); ?></span></h1>
<?php else : ?>
<h1 class="h-landmark"><span><?php echo x_get_option( 'x_renew_blog_title' ); ?></span></h1>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php elseif ( is_search() ) : ?>
<h1 class="h-landmark"><span><?php _e( 'Search Results', '__x__' ); ?></span></h1>
<?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__' );
?>
<h1 class="h-landmark"><span><?php echo $title; ?></span></h1>
<?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__' );
?>
<h1 class="h-landmark"><span><?php echo $title ?></span></h1>
<?php elseif ( is_404() ) : ?>
<h1 class="h-landmark"><span><?php _e( 'Oops!', '__x__' ); ?></span></h1>
<?php elseif ( is_year() ) : ?>
<h1 class="h-landmark"><span><?php _e( 'Post Archive by Year', '__x__' ); ?></span></h1>
<?php elseif ( is_month() ) : ?>
<h1 class="h-landmark"><span><?php _e( 'Post Archive by Month', '__x__' ); ?></span></h1>
<?php elseif ( is_day() ) : ?>
<h1 class="h-landmark"><span><?php _e( 'Post Archive by Day', '__x__' ); ?></span></h1>
<?php elseif ( x_is_portfolio() ) : ?>
<h1 class="h-landmark"><span><?php the_title(); ?></span></h1>
<?php elseif ( is_post_type_archive('recognition') ) : ?>
<h1 class="h-landmark"><span>News</span></h1>
<?php endif; ?>
</div>
<?php if ( $breadcrumbs == '1' ) : ?>
<?php if ( ! is_front_page() && ! x_is_portfolio() ) : ?>
<div class="x-breadcrumbs-wrap">
<?php x_breadcrumbs(); ?>
</div>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php if ( x_is_portfolio() ) : ?>
<div class="x-breadcrumbs-wrap">
<?php x_portfolio_filters(); ?>
</div>
<?php endif; ?>
</div>
</div>
</header>
<?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/legacy/cranium/headers/views/renew/.
You will need to create the folder path as it does not exist yet in your child theme.
Hope this helps. Kindly let us know.
