How do I change the Blog page title in Ethos?

[bperry420]

My site info:
Pro version 1.2.7
WordPress 4.9.4
Pro – Child Theme
URL: http://greek4kids.com/news

I want to change the title of my blog page.
Right now it says “The Blog”
I want it to say “NEWS & EVENTS”
I am using the ETHOS stack which does not have a place in the customizer to change it.
How do I change it?

Note:
I had to use custom code and a second pro header with a shortcode to get h.landmark titles to show on blog pages.
see this thread: https://theme.co/apex/forum/t/category-title-section-missing-from-blog-posts/26001/5

Hello There,

Thanks for writing in! Your change the Page Title in your blog, please go to Pro > Theme Options > Ethos > Blog Options. And make sure that your blog page title is “News & Events” also. You can change it by editing the blog page using the default WP editor and check the title.

Hope this helps.

You must not have read my support ticket. If you did, you would see that I wrote:
"I am using the ETHOS stack which does not have a place in the customizer to change it."

You said I should go into Pro > Theme Options > Ethos > Blog Options
but in the ETHOS stack that is not true.

You also suggested that I could change it by editing the blog page using the default WP editor.
That is not true either. My blog page is named News, but the blog page title says THE BLOG

It’s very frustrating when you throw out generic answers without thoroughly reading the support ticket.
Can you please find the right answer? Thank you.

Hello There,

I am reading your support ticket. The option might have been removed by a plugin or a custom code. My answer sounded like a generic answer because those are the places where you can change the page title. If in your case, the option is not present, it might have been removed or something. Could you please provide us a login to your site so that we can thoroughly check your settings?

By the way, you are using Ethos and the code given in the previous thread is using integrity. Did you ever change the code and replace integrity to ethos in the code provided in the thread or did you just simply copied and pasted the code? Please keep in mind that not all code will work because most of the snippet is probably a tailored solution for a specific site or stack.

Thank you in advance.

The code I used to show category page titles was given to me by Themeco support in this ticket:

Category title section missing from blog posts

All I did was paste the code in my functions page in the child theme.

The option to change the blog title has never been in ETHOS options. It’s only in the Integrity, Renew and Icon stacks. see here: https://theme.co/apex/forums/topic/blog-header-for-ethos/

That is why I am asking for you to give me another way.

Hi there,

There is no landmark in Pro header, especially in your current Pro version. Hence, it’s probably added as custom codes in your site. And yes, those stack options will not appear inf Pro header is active instead of a standard header. Hence, you can’t really change that even if you’re on integrity.

I assume that you use the code provided in that thread, all you need to do is change these two lines

<h1 class="h-landmark"><span><?php echo x_get_option( 'x_integrity_blog_title' ); ?></span></h1>
			<p class="p-landmark-sub"><span><?php echo x_get_option( 'x_integrity_blog_subtitle' ); ?></span></p>

With your preferred text. Example,

<h1 class="h-landmark"><span>NEWS</span></h1>
			<p class="p-landmark-sub"><span>SUB TITLE</span></p>

And changing this line

<?php if ( is_home() && x_get_option( 'x_integrity_blog_header_enable' ) == '1' ) : ?>

to this

<?php if ( is_home() || is_archive() || is_singular('post') || is_page() ) : ?>

Thanks!

Your first code example helped me change the BLOG title to NEWS & EVENTS. Thank you.

Your second code example does not work. It changes every page title to NEWS and removes Category titles. I want CATEGORY titles when I clIck on a category.

So it is working the way I want now by using:

1. the code from this ticket: https://theme.co/apex/forum/t/category-title-section-missing-from-blog-posts/26001/4?u=bperry420
2. and by using the first code you gave me which changes the H1 name from ‘x_integrity_blog_title’ to NEWS & EVENTS
