Thank you, understand now.
No worries on my staging site. I cloned my existing site just to play but
in reality I will be starting with fresh WP installs, as I would like to
start customizing for client sites.
If I have an issue with blog post titles not showing on fresh install of
WP, I’ll follow up; my guess is — as you mentioned — it is plugin related
so no need to invest any time in this cloned site.
Thanks so much.
