I inherited a site in progress. My client had another developer start the site, ended the relationship with the previous developer some time ago, and recently asked me to continue the project. The site can be viewed at dealernet.co.
Currently, page titles are not showing up on any pages, although they are set to do so. I have inspected the header in the Chrome developer tools. The header tag that should contain the title of the page contains no text:
<div class="entry-title">
<h2 class="h1" style="color: #ffffff;">
</h2>
</div>Basic information:
Plugins installed and activated (listed as required by the theme):
Plugins installed but currently deactivated (all installed by previous developer. There seems to be a lot of redundancy, especially where performance is concerned. All plugins were activated when I inherited the site.):
The previous developer also created a child theme to customize the header per client's requests (adding the dropdown menu in the top left corner of the header and adding a search function to the right of the menu.) Only three files have been modified in the child theme.
I have tried the following:
The php that displays the title:
