Hiding the Header Text in WordPress

If you have a banner graphic that incorporates your blog title, you may not want the header text showing up over your image.

To fix it, go to the Appearance tab on the left and set the option to Display Header Text to No.

Display Header Text

The ability to do this depends on your theme and whether you are using the WordPress self-hosting option.

The other way of doing it is through editing your header.php file. Go to the Editor (Appearance tab on self-hosted blogs) and open the header.php file. Look for this code:

<div id=”header”>
<h1><a href=”<?php echo get_option(‘home’); ?>/”><?php bloginfo(‘name’); ?></a></h1>
<div><?php bloginfo(‘description’); ?></div>
</div><!–/header–>

Remove everything between the <h1> tags and save your changes.
