I like to remove the default post title, ie H1 because the position does not suit my site design. see image attached.

I then like to add my own H1 post title next to post featured image, see image attached. I like do this step without hurting my site SEO.

Additionally i like to move the post category below my post title, can this be done?

remove post title

Hi

You need to edit the loop-single file corresponding with the post template used and move this lines of code like here: http://screencast.com/t/8eEhftfFxs Also you will need this css in theme panel > custom code > custom css: http://screencast.com/t/84s8hH3qhXOu

.td-post-template-1 .post h1 {
margin-top: 0;
}
.td-post-template-1 .td-post-content .entry-category{
margin: 0;
}

Note that I’ve test this only with pot temple 1. For others post templates you will need different customizations. You can use this example to customize and others post template. In case you can’t do it yourself my advice is to find someone who can help you with this as we cannot offer any type of custom work at the moment.

Thanks!

Hi Andrie thanks,

I think I should of used my site design to explain better, see image below. Since I already have the feature image and title made out of visual composer and the rating section on the right, I don’t think I can just use the existing title from the post template and move into my content made from visual composer. because the rating section on the right may not position correctly. correct me if I’m wrong about this.

So I was thinking maybe I could hide the post title and feature image from the post template, and use my own made from visual composer. And how can I best hide the title in post template to not hurt my seo and use my made up title (h1 title) in visual composer? will google pickup this H1 title if I make it in visual composer?

but I think with my meathod I won’t be able to put the category tags under the title made in visual composer. its a bit hard to decide for me right now. :/

Hi

You can deactivate the post tile by commenting the indicated line from the loop file corresponding with the post template used: http://screencast.com/t/spX9EA6KfTtX Also the featured image can be deactivated from post content, from theme panel > post settings > featured image: http://screencast.com/t/5Q4OumpwHb0
Regarding the H! tag this will still be recognized even if it’s added between an element from Visual Composer.
I am not very sure how did you build your post so please provide more details about this or also you can provide the post content from text mode: http://screencast.com/t/XEUmvzlB via http://pastebin.com/ so I can duplicate the situation on my side and get back to you with a more specific answer.

Thanks!

Thanks for the tip about commenting out the title and category. Here is a screen shot of the my layout in VC

and the VC code via pastbin http://pastebin.com/dVr6E25P the styling is done in custom CSS in the custom CSS section in the theme panel.

most of the design it is done via columns in visual composer, so the title is on the second column. I would still like to have the category properly updated for each post and appear just below the title on the second column, how could I do that with this layout?

Hi

Unfortunately to display the category tag according with your request you will have to modify the code. The category tags are generated by php code and this runs on server side, so they can’t be edited on Visual Composer. This is a complex task which involve many customizations and I can’t provide a solution now. Unfortunately we cannot offer custom work as we work hard on the development, updates, fixes and support. You can always get a freelancer from sites like: http://studio.envato.com/ if you don’t know how to do it yourself.

Thanks!
