    Hi there! In the "Custom Document Title" section on each page, I put in a title. It's showing up on every page correctly except the Blog page. Is there a reason for this or is something else wrong?

    The site is http://www.thegratefulbread.com/newsite.

    Thank you!

    The blog page doesn't display a page title in Genesis because the post titles each display. You'll have to add some code to get a page title to display on the blog page template above the post titles.

    Hmm, interesting. I guess it's not the end of the world...but just curious what code would need to be inserted and where??

    I think if you add something along these lines to your functions.php file it should get you close:
    // Add page title to blog page template
    add_action( 'genesis_before', 'wsm_blog_page_title' );

    function wsm_blog_page_title() {
        if ( is_page_template( 'page_blog.php' ) ) {
            add_action( 'genesis_before_content', 'wsm_show_blog_page_title_text', 2 );
        }
    }
    function wsm_show_blog_page_title_text() {
        echo '<h1 class="entry-title">' . get_the_title() . '</h1>';
    }
