I have read as many of the forums on this as I can… I have tried using the CSS codes that others have suggested, and it hasn’t worked… I am trying to remove the word Category from the page title of my category pages. I have a number of category pages and I’m trying to get rid of the word Category and the ‘:’ with it, but each CSS code I try won’t remove it.

zimmrants.com/category/nfl, I don’t mind it in the URL, but I don’t want it to display on the actual page…

I have no idea what else to try since I’ve tried so many of the CSS codes suggested already.

Help would be greatly appreciated.

hi,

Others have requested the same before but I am afraid it is not possible.

Hi realmatthewzimmer,

I looked at your theme and the word “Category” and the category name are included in the same element, which means there isn’t a way to target them individually. Therefore, both parts of the title would need to be hidden.

This can be achieved by pasting the following code into My Sites > Customise > CSS:
```
.category h1.entry-title {
display: none;
}
```
CSS is theme specific, so the code I’ve given you is a little different from the example in the thread @kosiew linked to.

Please let me know if you need any further help.

I made a small change to the code above and this is the updated version:
```
.category h1.entry-title {
display: none;
}
```
Just wanted to make sure you had seen it :)
