Remove 'Categories' title

  • I cant find a way to remove the category:

    title – i tired everything mentioned in the formums. the core.php of the Auberge Plus theme is where the single_cat_title part is but even when I delete or comment out the line NOTHING HAPPENS ??

    if ( ! function_exists( ‘get_the_archive_title’ ) ) {
    function get_the_archive_title() {
    if ( is_category() ) {
    $title = sprintf( __( ‘Category: %s’, ‘wm_domain’ ), single_cat_title( ”, false ) );

    when i change it to

    if ( ! function_exists( ‘get_the_archive_title’ ) ) {
    function get_the_archive_title() {
    if ( is_category() ) {
    $title = sprintf( __( ‘%s’, ‘wm_domain’ ), single_cat_title( ”, false ) );

    or any variation NOTHING changes on the site.

  • assuming you are on the latest version of WordPress, the function 'get_the_archive_title()' does exist, and any of your edited code will not get applied.

    generally, there is a way to change the output of ‘get_the_archive_title()’ via a filter function;

    unfortunately, this forum cannot help with details to solve your problem.

    as you are using the pro version of the theme, you might need to contact the developer of the theme for help;

    Hey Alchymyth thanks for the replay

    I do have the latest version of wordpress AND the pro version of the theme

    i already tried contacting the developer who said it was a googleable resolution and that is the solution from the link he gave me which isnt working.

    Im no expert in coding but i do see the get_the_archive part in the core.php

    so can you just tell me where to put this

    <?php add_filter( $tag, $function_to_add, $priority, $accepted_args ); ?>

    from the second link you posted?

    the filter goes typically into functions.php of your theme (preferrable create a child theme for the customization, and add the code into functions.php of the child theme);

    example code:

    add_filter( 'get_the_archive_title', 'remove_category_word_from_archive_title' );

function remove_category_word_from_archive_title( $title ) {
    $title = str_replace( 'Category', '', $title );
    return $title;
}
