Alright I have found the solution with your help and I thank you so much. I added the above code to the end of my style.css File. No bannans did not work. *Scratches Head in Frustation*

Then I removed the added code and put it at the end of the
/* =Master Page Classes located in the style.css file and Viola Success my titles are no longer showing on my pages and you have just helped me edit my first .css file THANKS!! So Excited.

I did however do this edit in the orginal template but I do understand what you are saying about a Child-Theme. I don’t have time to master that just yet but I do understand the basics.

I was thinking to save time my theme is provided under the GPU Licsence so I think I will just copy the files into a brand new folder of my own label and maybe do some editing to the name of the theme in the style.css file.

My very last question if your up to helping me one final time. Will doing the above as far as copying all the files and folders of my theme into a new folder in /wp-content/themes keep original theme creators from updating my files?

Thanks again it’s working great that was so simple yet so tricky lol.

Alright one final bit about this then. Will the change to the title that I’m looking for work if I create the neccessary directory within my themes directory as described in https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Child_Themes, then copy the original style.css file to the new directory and make the change to the code as you described above?

Please let this be true because I can manage it no problem.

Oh and Furthermore where do I add that paticular line of code in the style.css file?? <— reason for edit

Hmmmmm Ok Where do I locate the external stylesheet. . . is that style.css?

P.S. the original ID was “storytitle” should I be looking for that word in the stylesheet? <—– Reason for Edit

I used the web developer function in Internet Explorer and inspected the Title of one of my pages it highlighted the following code:

<h1 class=”{display:none;}”>

Maybe the code is wrong because the title is definately still there. Any suggestions?

P.S. Just so you know I learned something . . . This particular string of code was located in the
Two columns, content left Page Template (template-twocol_left.php) file.

Which can be found using the Editor under Appearance in WordPress. The Title rules are decided in this paticular file because I have chosen to use this particular template. Even though there are other templates with the same overall options this is the one I need to edit because it is the template for my particular them that I am using. Please correct me if I’m wrong. Thanks

Thank you unfortunately I can not post a link to the website as it is not live at this time. I’m running WordPress Locally using WAMP.
May help to note that the above listed files are available through the Editor in Appearance on WordPress. However I do I have access to the main WordPress files locally on my own computer.

Furthermore I’ve been getting roughly the same response as far as adding CSS code. I’m confused however in that I don’t understand if I can add CSS Code to .php files or if it is strictly designed for .css files.

If the latter is the case I only have one .css file for my theme and that is the style.css which has no mention of titles in any way at this time.

Now I have found references to the title in page.php which I removed. There are more references to the page title in the different template files. Any ways I’m bound and determined to get to the bottom of this please bear with me and I’ll patiently work for the answer.

My apologies can we please delete the above post and this one and I’ll copy and paste this over into another thread. Thanks.

I hate to bother you more but the above did not work out to be a solution to my problem.

I’m very new to code and have no formal training in the matter. In fact this site I’m working on is almost the first crash course I’ve had with all of this code. I could not locate the place where I could insert that bit of ccs code. I am also running Internet Explorer so that bit about firefox or chrome was irrelevant to me at this point.

Now I’m running a pre – made theme for my wordpress site so some of the normal files you would find for the default WordPress theme are not available to me. I’ve been doing a lot of research on this matter and I am still coming up short. Not from lack of understanding but lack of actual knowledge.

That being said I’ve come a long way and I understand the code I need to change is located in files associated with the theme I am using. In this case the Theme is Adventure Journal.

I have access to the following files that make up this particular theme:

404.php, contexture.php, options.php, archive.php, author.php,

category.php, comments-popup.php, comments.php, footer.php,

functions.php, header.php, index.php, loop.php, page.php,

search.php, single.php (Single Post), tag.php,

and then . . .

(One column, no sidebars Page Template) template-onecol.php

(Three columns, content center Page Template) template-threecol.php

(Two columns, content left Page Template) template-twocol_left.php

(Two columns, content right Page Template) template-twocol_right.php

Style.css (Stylesheet)

style-ie.css

The above are all the files associated with my theme.

As a side note I have a sidebar set up with my page content to the left. <- – – – Reason for editing post.

So the question continues as follows:
Where do I find the neccessary code to change so that my page titles no longer appear. Furthermore what do I change the code to so the titles (again) no longer appear.

I’m sorry for this rediculously long post however the plugin that was originally working to do this for me the “easy” way is now making the title Home not show up on the navigation bar so the plugin is no longer an option. Plus I’d like to do this the “hard” way or the “right” way if possible.

Thank you in advance for taking the time to read this post. Any help would be great.

Mohit Kumar could you explain that a little better please?
I very much do not want a viewer of the site to see the titles of the pages.

I do believe I have found my problem in the code. Orignally I removed the code for the page title in page.php and behold the title was still there.

Well my theme is set up for two columns with content left and my theme actually has another bit of code for my actual template. It’s called Two Columns, content left page template.

I’m looking at it in the editor and I have come across the following code: <?php echo sprintf(‘<h1 class=”storytitle”>%
s</h1>’,get_the_title());?>

First is that the code I need to fix to hide the title of my pages on the pages themselves and second how can I use the code you spoke of above in this string of code?

Any help would be great thanks.

Figured it out. Used Media in WP to upload the file and the link I needed was located on the right hand side. Hope this helps someone.

No need to respond.
