Catergory post page

11 years ago · Last reply by Andrew Misplon 10 years ago

Hi

I have this page which list all my post on a particular category, now the title always comes up with “Category Archives: (name of catergory) Quotes”. I don’t want to have the “Category Archives:” as part of the title. How can I go about removing this?

I’m aware the title is automatic created through php with the code below.

Thanks in advanced

    Hi Christian

    The category page/title you’re referring to is produced by the theme. It takes a child theme to change that title:

    Thread: Rename “Category Archives”

    Alternatively you can insert a Post Loop widget on a page using Page Builder. In the Additional field of the Post Loop widget, insert an argument like:

    cat=14

    14 is the category ID of the quotes category. You can find the category you’re looking for by going to Posts > Categories and hovering over a category name, the ID is in the url.

    I’ve noticed I’m not the only person that wants to remove this “Category Archives” wording from the H1, looks ugly and send out the wrong message.

    So I want to suggest to get this removed from future updates. A simple change would do just that.

    There’s a file called archive.php if you change the php in the H1 to read “” it will remove ‘Category Archives:’ and just leave the actual category name which is what we all want.

    I hope you take my suggestion into consideration

    Thanks

    Hi Christian

    Thanks for your feedback. It could potentially be included as a new theme setting. Removing things gets a little bit tricky when a theme has been in use for a while.

    For the short term the child theme solution would be still be the fastest way to implement. Let us know if you need any help with that.
