I have the blog page set as my blog page and want to change the layout to a full width but it won’t let me. Also, when I type in a custom page title for this page it doesn’t show when updated either. Any ideas?

Wierd… if the page is set to be the blog posts page I can’t edit the layout or custom page title. If I switch my blog post page to another temporary page, I can then edit the other page.
HELP!

Do you have Yoast SEO plugin? I’m seeing similar meta/settings saving issues being reported with this plugin installed and activated.

I do not have that plugin installed.
In the quick edit for the page is shows the option for page layout which I have set to full-width, but when you click on the page to edit it it doesn’t show you the option for page layout. Screenshots attached…

I also have yeast installed. This is what is causing the issues.

Oh right. I ran into this the other day. Any page you have set as your blog pages wont have the template dropdown. You can set the layout in Theme Options > Blog. WP takes control of the page when you set it to be your blog page.

Changing the title should work though. See attached.

Yes! Worked perfectly. Thanks!
Can the title font size be changes using quick css? If so, how would I do it??
I’d like to make the title font smaller site wide.

Oh, one thing that it still will not let me do is assign a different sidebar to the bog page? Any ideas??
If I have default, left or right side layout chosen it puts the default sidebar in no matter what.

Where do you have the title?

Again, WP takes over the page. That’s why you cant control the sidebar. There are several pages like this.

Forgot to mention, you can use a conditional widget plugin to display which widgets are displayed where. There are several of them. Search the repo.

You can either change your H1 size in Theme Options > Fonts or try this in your quick css
COPY CODE
```
h1.page-title {
  font-size: 16px;
}
```

@sharmstr changing the H1 site didn’t have an effect but your code in the quick css works great!

Thanks!
