[Support request] Remove Page title with hook

[Eaydman]

Hi,
I want always to disable the Page title.
I know my customer is going to forget sometime to pres the “hide page title” icon some times.

Is it possible to remove the Page title with a hook somehow ?

Hi there,

Would a layout element work?

Hi Leo,

No its not working for me, I need it hidden onther way, I have build a custom blogpost Hero with hooks.

Hi there,

if you used a Block Element – Page Hero then it includes the options to disable the Page Title:

[Eaydman]

i dont use that. Is it not possible to disable to titles otherwise ?

[David]

If the title is being added by the theme, then the method that Leo provided will work.
Can you share a link to a page where i can see the title ?

[Eaydman]

I dont use the layout element. Because it does not work with ACF backgorunds. I use the elemets hooks method, so there is not the possibility to disable title ?

[David]

Can i see a page where the Title is visible and that needs to be removed ?
I can then see how it is being displayed and advice.

[Eaydman]

Sure, have add it to the private

[David]

The Layout Element should work for that.
You still use your Hook Element for the Top post img DK and hero content.

You just need to create a new Layout Element, Disable the Title. And set the Display Rules to Posts > All Posts.

As a side note. You can use the Block Element to display ACF Fields and ACF Background images.
Happy to show you how if you want.

But I cant get the background image from the Advanced Custom Field, to work with the Layout Element. The custom backgroun image is really important

[Eaydman]

Aahh maybe I understand, just use an “empty” Layout element ?

[David]

Maybe its getting lost in Translation 🙂
This is a Layout Element:

It has not content, it just provides you options to disable stuff 🙂
