[Theme: Minimatica] Remove "Pages" Title of Sidebar

There are literally thousands of WordPress themes – which means that many people won’t be familiar with your particular theme. So a link to your site where people can see the theme might result in more responses.

gotcha …

little help?

Try adding:

#sidebar .widgettitle {display:none}

to the bottom of style.css.

no luck. this is the link to one of the pages I’m having this problem with. You can see the “Pages” title on the right hand side that I’d like to get rid of. any other ideas?

thanks!

i’d really like to find this out, too! anyone have any ideas?

not sure if it’s the cleanest way, but i just went into the sidebar template and deleted everything between the div tags. that gets rid of the sidebar.

i think that’s definitely the temporary fix for now! if anyone has any other ideas on how to change the title, and also how to change which pages you want displayed on the sidebar, it would be extremely helpful. thanks!

I don’t see anything in the sidebar.php that allows this.

waht is the exact code of the ‘pages’ section in the sidebar?

if it is something like:

<?php wp_list_pages(); ?>

try to change it to:
<li><ul><?php wp_list_pages('title_li='); ?></ul></li>

with other parameters of ‘wp_list_pages()’ you can also set which pages to show:

Hi lmbyford;
To hide the list of pages, just go to /wp-includes/default-widgets.php and comment line 31, so that it looks like this:

/**
$out = wp_list_pages( apply_filters('widget_pages_args', array('title_li' => '', 'echo' => 0, 'sort_column' => $sortby, 'exclude' => $exclude) ) );
*/

hi berndw, I’m not sure I follow which section the editor that’s in. I’ve asked a new question on the forum which might more fully explain what I’m looking to do. If you have any ideas, it would be very appreciated!

Thanks!

I am trying to remove the word “pages” from the side bar of our site – also in Minimatica – and can’t figure out how to do it. Our site is: blutstein-brondino.com and can’t find the answer – has anyone else found an answer to this “problem”?

@artartifact- I’m using minimatica as well because of the front page and I am trying to make it a little more like a group of static pages versus a true blog.

I went into default_widgets.php and on line 24 removed the word pages so it looked like this:

$title = apply_filters(‘widget_title’, empty( $instance[‘title’] ) ? __( ” ) : $instance[‘title’], $instance, $this->id_base);

I’m new to this, but it did what I was trying to do.

I finally figured out how to correct the problem – I was using the “My Page Order” Plug In and had to edit my-page-order/mypageorder.php by removing the word “Pages” from the line:

$title = apply_filters(‘widget_title’, empty( $instance[‘title’] ) ? __( ‘Pages’ ) : $instance[‘title’]);

It now appears as:

$title = apply_filters(‘widget_title’, empty( $instance[‘title’] ) ? __( ” ) : $instance[‘title’]);

and the word “Pages” has disappeared from the top of the sidebar list.
