[Resolved] Theme Newsroom, blog, H1 is not recognised

[Manuela]

Hi

The SEO report indicates that the blog headline (h1) is missing. But, the H1 title is in every post.🤔

Merci for the help

Manuela 🙂

Hi there,

your Blog page is not displaying a H1 Title.
Add this PHP Snippet to your site:

add_filter( 'generate_site_title_output', function( $output ) {
    return sprintf(
        '<%1$s class="main-title" itemprop="headline">
            <a href="%2$s" rel="home">
                %3$s
            </a>
        </%1$s>',
        ( ( is_front_page() && is_home() ) || is_home() ) ? 'h1' : 'p',
        esc_url( apply_filters( 'generate_site_title_href', home_url( '/' ) ) ),
        get_bloginfo( 'name' )
    );
});

it will make it so the Site Title gets the H1 tag.

Hi David

In the Content-Single.php or in the Single.php?

[David]

Are you using a Child Theme?
If yes, then it goes in the Child Theme > functions.php
If No, then use the Code Snippets plugin ( link in doc below ) and Add New Snippet to add the code.

More info here on adding PHP:

Hi David

Merci for the plugin.

I installed it on WordPress and reinserted the code. I have selected “Run snippet everywhere”.

But, the problem is not solved, because the SEO tool shows the following: See private area.

What else do I have to adjust?

Thank you Manuela

Those all look like Single Posts, which should automatically display your Post Content Title as the H1.

There are 2 places those can be disabled:

1. In the individual posts Post editor -> Disable Elements meta box:

https://docs.generatepress.com/article/layout-metabox-overview/

2. in a GP Element -> Layout found in Appearance > Elements.

Can you check to see if any of those have the Content Title disabled ?

[Manuela]

Hi David

I have checked point 1 and 2, unfortunately still without a solution.

I am also surprised, as I already have experience with some themes. But the H1 has never been an error in the SEO report, as it is always crawlable. It is a mystery to me.

[David]

Could i get a temporary admin login to the site ? I can then take a closer look .

[Manuela]

Hi David, of course. Then I only need an email address for access. Thank you.

Hallo David

It is the Single Layout element, because the removed site header from single post layout. (Datum der Veröffentlichung: 28. Sep. 2020 um 22:14 Uhr)

If I set the element to draft,
– then the header of the blog post appears twice in each blog post,
– and the header from the page also appears.
