Moving the category description to the bottom

Hi there,

Try this PHP:

add_action( 'wp', function() {
    remove_action( 'generate_after_archive_title', 'generate_do_archive_description' );

    if ( is_archive() ) {
        add_action( 'generate_after_main_content', 'generate_do_archive_description' );
    }
} );

Hi Tom,

thank you! It works so far. The problem now is that the category description is twice on the page (duplicate: top and bottom). How can I remove it from the top?

I'm looking at this page: https://www.notargebuehren.com/notar-berlin/

And only see the description at the bottom?

Am I missing something?

Hi Leo,

please reload the page and have a look.

Thank you. This is the function:

add_action( 'wp', function() {
remove_action( 'generate_after_archive_title', 'generate_do_archive_description' );

if ( is_archive() ) {
add_action( 'generate_after_main_content', 'generate_do_archive_description' );
}
} );

Thank you!

I tested the code and it worked perfectly for me.

Can you try clearing and disabling Cachify and Autoptimize first?

Hi Leo,

I cleared the cache of the autoptimize and cachify theme. I also deactivated them. The category description is still displayed on top and the bottom.

Do you want to have a look into the backend?

Hi there,

Do you have any other functions on the site?

If you'd like, you can send temporary admin login details and we'll take a closer look: https://generatepress.com/contact

Hi Tom,

this is my function.php:

	$parent_style = 'generatepress-style';

	wp_enqueue_style( $parent_style, get_template_directory_uri() . '/style.css' );
	wp_enqueue_style( 'generatepress-child-style',
	get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/style.css',
	array( $parent_style )
	);
}
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'theme_enqueue_styles' );

add_action( 'wp', function() {
    remove_action( 'generate_after_archive_title', 'generate_do_archive_description' );

    if ( is_archive() ) {
        add_action( 'generate_after_main_content', 'generate_do_archive_description' );
    }
} );

This function is the issue: generate_archive_title()

What is it doing, exactly?

I have no idea to be honest.

Edit: I guess it adds the word "Notar" in front of the category title. So at the end the archive title will be for example "Notary Washington".

If you remove that function, does it fix the issue?

It works!

Thank you @ all.

You're welcome :)

Hi,

I try to use it but the description is shown also in top & bottom. Pls see it in https://www.wildboarcoffee.com/espresso-machines/delonghi/

I used child theme also. I did clear all cache (used Litespeed) but it don't work. Code in the functions.php is

add_action( 'wp', function() {if ( is_single() ) {add_filter( 'generate_show_post_navigation', '__return_false' );}} );
add_action( 'wp', function() {
remove_action( 'generate_after_archive_title', 'generate_do_archive_description' );

if ( is_archive() ) {
add_action( 'generate_after_main_content', 'generate_do_archive_description' );
}
} );
