Removing the site title in header

[cmalamed]

Can anyone tell me how to remove to remove the site title in the header when you use a logo instead? I thought uploading the logo would remove the title, but apparently I'm remembering incorrectly.

I don't want to remove the title in the General Settings because that removes it from the page.

Hey cmalamed,

Did you figure it out? I am wondering the same thing. I don't want to remove the site title because I want it to show up in the browser <title> tag, but I want to remove it from displaying on my blog page.

My site is in maintenance mode, so no one else can see it. I thought that this would be a pretty common issue. I'll try to explain it better.

When you add a logo through Appearance > Header, the site title input through Settings > General still displays. I'd like to use the logo only and remove the text of the site title. But if I remove the site title from Settings > General, then no page title on the web pages displays. Thanks for your help.

What theme are you using? Some of these are theme specific.

I'm using Lifestyle. But actually, I just found the answer by searching through Google. I guess I just missed it on the site. Thanks for trying to understand, Anitac. So Beaco, just in case you haven't found the answer yet, go to your functions.php file and add this code at the end to remove the title:

//* Remove the site title
remove_action( 'genesis_site_title', 'genesis_seo_site_title' );

And to remove the description, add this:
//* Remove the site description
remove_action( 'genesis_site_description', 'genesis_seo_site_description' );

Then upload the functions.php file. It works. You can read about it here: http://my.studiopress.com/snippets/header/
