How To Remove Duplicate Titles in Blog

Hi there,

Any chance you can link us to the page in question?

You can use the private information field:
https://docs.generatepress.com/article/using-the-premium-support-forum/#private-information

Let me know :)

Link attached.

Which one are you trying to remove? The first or second one?

The second one.

Ok so the first one is created with a block element page hero:
https://docs.generatepress.com/article/block-element-page-hero/

If you edit that element, then you can toggle on to disable the default title and primary post meta:
https://docs.generatepress.com/article/block-element-page-hero/#settings

Those settings would remove the second title :)

Let me know if this helps :)

No, unfortunately your videos did not help. I watched all 16 minutes of them, but I didn't see where they discussed how to remove duplicate titles.

Were you able to identify the element (under dashboard > Appearance > Elements) that's adding the first title and post meta yet?

Was this a site library import? If so can you recall which site?

I have no idea what you are even talking about. I'm just looking for a simple and quick way to disable duplicate titles. And I'd rather not have to watch 16 minutes of video.

You don't need to watch the video. The documentation is just a reference of the element and setting you need to find.

Can you follow my suggestion here and answer the questions?

We should be able to resolve the issue quickly if you attempt my instructions.

Alternatively, I can take some screenshots for you if you provide the dashboard access of your site using the private info field:
https://docs.generatepress.com/article/using-the-premium-support-forum/#private-information

Thanks.

So all you did was send me links to 2 (16 minute videos). You didn't explain anything at all or provide any screenshots.

You didn’t explain anything at all or provide any screenshots.

This reply here explains exactly what needs to be done with the documentation links as references to the specific option:

There are also screenshots in the documentation. For example:
https://docs.generatepress.com/article/block-element-page-hero/#settings

You still have not answered my questions here either:

If you would like me to take some screenshots in your install for you, then please provide the dashboard access using the private URL field:

I'm really trying to help and not waste both of our time but it's very difficult to do so when the instructions provided are not being followed.

Thanks for your understanding.

I'm just trying to get a simple and quick answer on how to fix something. And all you do is provide links to 16 minute videos without any explanation. And to be honest you come off as extremely rude which is why I'd prefer someone else respond to my questions.

Hi Ryan,

I'm not really sure what more I can do to help here - none of my instructions are being followed or attemped.

The "simple and quick" answer you are looking for is in this reply:
https://generatepress.com/forums/topic/how-to-remove-duplicate-titles-in-blog/#post-2231371

I will rephrase the steps again:

1. Go to Dashboard > Appearance > Elements and look for a block element page hero that's assigned to Posts.

2. Edit the element identified in #1.

3. Turn on Disable Title as shown in this screenshot:
https://docs.generatepress.com/article/block-element-page-hero/#settings

That should be it.

My other suggestion is for you to provide the dashboard access so I can take some screenshots for you but I have not received the information either.

I edited the answer above to include a simple 3 steps solution for you to follow.

Please try it and let me know if you get stuck anywhere.
