Theme adding 4 H1 tags to all pages

    Hi,

    Using the Efor theme with Elementor. On every page that uses the theme default header and footer, 4 H1 Headings are added on EVERY page by the theme. On Inspecting the pages, we found out that it is the “Site Title” H1 that is getting added, that too 4 times.
    To confirm that this is a theme specific issue, we created a page with Elementor Canvas as the page layout (without theme header and footer) and on such pages the extra H1 are not there. The moment we change the page layout to theme default, the extra H1 appears.
    My support query is how do we prevent the theme from adding the site title H1 to all the pages. We tried adding the below CSS, but doesn’t work.
    h1.site-title {
    display: none;
    }
    Let me know how we can disable the theme from adding site title H1 (that too 4 times) on all pages as it is affecting our SEO set up.

    Hi @krea,
    Inside html5 sectioning elements multiple h1 tags are allowed, you can check this link to learn more about it;
    Regarding this, if you have the issue, I can forward this topic to our WordPress developer as well.
    Thanks

    Hi @serkan Thanks for the response. We are okay with the additional H1 tag that is added by the theme as Site Title. But, the issue is it getting the same H1 tag added 4 times (the same site title H1 tag) which looks like a bug. Hence I think this is something that needs to be fixed, so please forward this to the dev team.

    Hi,
    I will forward this issue to our developer and I will keep you updated.
    Btw, have you tried to deactivate your third party plugin and tried it again?
    Thanks

    Hi, I have just checked your page markup and there are two H1 tags, one for site title in “header” section element and the other for page title inside “article” section element, using multiple H1 tags are totally ok for SEO when used in HTML5 section elements.

    Have a nice day!
