My b2evolution Version: Not Entered

I'm currently using the Natural Pink skin, and am having difficultly figuring out how to make the page title NOT appear in the header portion of my blog. I DO want it to appear as the title of the browser window. Right now "testing this" is what I entered into the Title field under "General Parameters" in the back office of my blog. So "testing this" appears at the top of the browser window, but also appears over my logo in the header if you scroll over the top left of the logo.

Here's the link to my blog: http://www.pennylanepapersgiftbags.com/blog/blog5.php

Can someone let me how to remove it from the header? much appreciated!

I don't follow. It appears in the browser title but I didn't see it anywhere else.

It sounds like the kind of thing you can remove in the Widgets control panel, but not seeing it I can't be sure that's what you mean.

If you scroll over the flower of the Pennylane Papers logo, you'll see the words "testing this". That's what I would like to remove. thanks!

OK, now I see what you mean. It's the ALT text for the logo link widget. You can see that in the header section of your widgets tab.

Here's the code:

<div class="widget_core_coll_logo"><h1><a href="http://www.pennylanepapersgiftbags.com/blog/blog5.php"><img src="http://www.pennylanepapersgiftbags.com/blog/media/blogs/blog/logo.png" alt="testing this" /></a></h1></div>

There must be some funky CSS to get the alt text to show up like that! Maybe you can replace that widget with a HTML box widget that does what you want without the ALT text.

yes, i saw that. for some reason the header is pulling in the text into the Title field under "General Parameters" in the back office of my blog. I'm hoping someone can tell me how to override that whether in the CSS file or elsewhere. Maybe I'll take a look to see if I can change the header to a widget; hopefully it's easy. thanks!

The easy way to remove it is to go into Blog Settings >> Widgets and click on the little red 'x' to the right of the 'Blog Title' widget in the header section. That will remove it very easily

I tried that earlier. The widget is no longer there, but it didn't remove it from the blog. Any other thoughts?

It's not the title, it's the logo. You can look in the source code and see where the widget_core_coll_logo div is created.

any idea what the file name would be?

Have you taken the logo widget out, if only to test it? Start there.

It seems to be gone now. Is it sorted?

Yes, i figured it out. I had to remove the logo widget completely and adjust the css file so my logo would appear in the header. Thanks for your help.
