Hi Sakin,

I have a “subscribe to blog” widget which I want on the blog page. I see that you have extra widget areas which I can use. I want this widget to appear on the first page of the blog (archive page or summary), but right now its showing up on each blog post.  How can I get this on the “archive page” as well?  Which widget area do you suggest?

Other things I would like to correct – the first page of the blog has “Blog Archives” at the top before the posts, don’t know where this came from as it was not on the original.  How can I get rid of this or change this to another name i.e. Recent Posts?

Also on this page, I would like to run the sharing icons right across the post summaries at the bottom of each post (under the pic as well as copy). Right now they run across the bottom of the copy.  I would like the icons to follow the line – I am using the “sharing” in Jetpack for the icons.

Thanking you for you help.

— To show it only on Blog and categories, add the widget in “Archive Sidebar”

— Just add the following CSS in “Appearance => Theme Options => Custom CSS” box.
`.category .page-header { display: none; }`

— I am not sure how the plugin will add add the icon. Can you show me in your site. I think you might considering asking in plugin forum for plugin support.

Hi Sakin,  Thanks for your help.  I have checked the sharing plugin and it seems you can’t adjust the placement.  The only option is searching for another plugin.

The other option is to increase the point size or colour of the line in your theme.  I’ve checked the colour options, but I do not see where I can change the “line colour” .  Right now, the line between each post on the summary page is a light grey which I assume is the default.  How do I change this to a darker colour?  If it changes the keyline around the images, that’s okay. Just need it darker to make it easier to read.

Also, I have viewed the posts on footer editor not working, but as I am working in 2.0 it should work, rigft? However, it’s not working.  Any suggestions on getting text changes to stick?

Thanks for your help on this.

@karinschultz: you can change the hr border color by adding the following CSS in “Appearance => Theme Options => Custom CSS” box
`hr { border-color: #ddd; }`

For footer editor, I have emailed you.
