Just re-read your first post, I didn’t fully understand the first time.
So you had all of your H1 tags added to the content manually before, as your theme didn’t add the title to your content automatically.
When you switched to GP, you then had double H1 tags in your content, which is definitely no good.
I think it’s important for the theme to add these H1 tags automatically, as some people aren’t aware of the importance of having them.
There’s no way I can remove them, as it would affect thousands of people using the theme, and they would be very angry at me.
However, you can remove these titles from your pages with a function: https://gist.github.com/generatepress/261aa39f5e594c243c02
That way you can add your own H1 tags inside of your content.
The way GP is set up straight out of the box is ideal for SEO purposes – one H1 tag per page, and it’s the title of the page.
If you’re using masonry, your titles will be H2 tags, as it’s important to only have one H1 tag per page. Having more than one H1 tag on a single page isn’t W3C valid and will hurt your SEO rankings.
Hope this helps 🙂
