Post title not showing?
13 replies · Started by William on August 10, 2020
Hi there,
I'm not sure how I did this, if I have or not, but I cannot make post titles show on posts? Is there a way to enable it on all posts?
Kind regards,
Will
Hi there,
Post titles are enabled by default.
If it's not showing when you create a new post, then there is likely a layout element that's disabling it:
https://docs.generatepress.com/article/layout-element-overview/#disable-element
Let me know if this helps :)
Hi there,
That makes sense! However, in any of my layout elements, I don't see any tab to disable elements?
Hi there,
you site has had a lot of custom development which also looks like it has excluded the content title from the template.
What title do you want displayed ? As the post you linked to according to the breadcrumb is Analysis
Whereas you posts Title Tag is:
Complete Analysis of 1984 by George Orwell | Book Analysis
Hi there,
I'm not sure where this has been excluded or why the layout elements to disable areas are not showing? Just for design/development reasons, I would like the post title to appear here:
The screenshot you are showing is a header element. The disable element option is in the layout element.
https://docs.generatepress.com/article/layout-element-overview/#disable-element
Okay, I don't think I have any layout elements to disable the post title. I have this as additional CSS but I don't see anything which would disable the post title/hide it, unless you can see it?

}}Can you disable all your custom CSS and any custom functions to eliminate any conflicts?
Post titles should show by default and the only way to turn them off in all posts is with a layout element unless something else is conflicting.
Hi there,
I removed all CSS and snippets temporarily and still the post title does not show - is there a way to add the title somehow?
Kind regards,
Will
If you used the {{post_title}} template tag in the Header Element it will remove the content title.
You will need to use a Hook Element to add it back with this code:
<?php echo '<h1>' . get_the_title() . '</h1>';
Try the before_content_hook
Ah okay, that makes sense! I used {{post_title}} in a header which made it disappear - it was not clear this would cause the post title to disappear - thanks for your help!
You're welcome
David,
I've had the same problem for a long time.
I've played with various settings (colors and otherwise), but nothing seems to work.
I don't know if the post title font color is set to white somewhere or what. if you select the area where the title is, it shows up. But you don't see it with a white background.
What to do?
Thanks.
