How can i remove BLOG section

Hi I do know that removing Blog Section, we should follow this >

X > Theme Options > STACK > Blog Options > Remove Blog title

But my problem is that even after removing Blog title it shows h1 tag as h1 class=“h-landmark” < span > < /span > < /h1 > in view sources of every page.

There should not be two h1 tags in same page from SEO perspective. H1 must only be the title of the post.

How can I remove Blog title h1 tag forever that is given as default in X theme?

Hi Sansar,

Thank you for writing in, that header landmark area is controlled by the _landmark-header.php file template that you can find under x/framework/legacy/cranium/headers/views/renew/, that means you need to modify that file, you need to copy that file on your child theme before you modified it.

If you don’t have a child theme yet, you can follow this guide to set up a child theme. Then start creating this directory x-child/framework/legacy/cranium/headers/views/renew/ on your child theme and paste the copied file there.

Find this line <h1 class="h-landmark"><span><?php echo x_get_option( 'x_renew_blog_title' ); ?></span></h1> on the copied _landmark-header.php file and replace the h1 tag with h3 or you can comment it out.

Hope it helps,
Cheers!

Hello Sansar,

The contents of the landmark header file should not contain the blog condition. You may need to have this code:

<?php

This line: <h1 class="h-landmark"><span><?php echo x_get_option( 'x_renew_blog_title' ); ?></span></h1> were now replaced with <?php // Do not display anything ?>. Nothing should display in the landmark after you’ve made those changes.

Kindly let us know how it goes.

Can we know why x theme provides two h1 tags, which is against SEO rules?

<h1 class="h-landmark"><span></span></h1> is not seen as h1 tag? I mean google does not see it as double h1 tag

one this
and another one title of the post?

Hello Sansar,

The double h1 happens to be in your single posts only. Please have the landmark header code updated and use this instead:

The <h1> were being changed to <h2> in the code above. This is to make sure that Google will not see double h1 tags.

We would love to know if this has worked for you. Thank you.

Can you please check my link if everything is Ok in google perspective? I am confused now.

Kindly check this link’s view source and tell me if it is good for SEO or not in terms of headers>>

Hi Sansar,

I can see you still have 2 h1 headers: https://screencast-o-matic.com/watch/cYetXAyNcE

Please make sure you have followed the instruction above correctly. I have double checked the effect and it should be correct.

Again on your child theme on this folder: x-child\framework\legacy\cranium\headers\views\renew you should have _landmark-header.php. The content should be the one shared by @ruenel on previews reply.

Yah I have still h1 tags

I put same code what @ruenel shared in his latest comment. But it is not working

Hi @sansarlochan,

In that case, please provide us login credentials in a secure note (wp-admin and FTP), so we can take a closer look.

Thank you,
