[Resolved] Remove page title without removing blog titles

[Lauren]

Hi!

I’ve read https://generatepress.com/forums/topic/remove-post-titles/ & https://generatepress.com/forums/topic/hiding-page-title-on-homepage/

and tried the disable elements function and the provided CSS and the issue I’m having is, it does remove the page title alright, but it also removes all the blog post titles. Is there a way I can ONLY remove the page titles?

Thank you!!

Hi there,

Disable Element meta box is page specific so if you check it on the page you want to hide the page title, it shouldn’t hide the title for all blog posts or any other pages:
https://docs.generatepress.com/article/disable-elements-overview/

If you want want to hide all the page titles by default without using disable element meta box and keep all the post titles, try this CSS:

.page .entry-header {
    display: none;
}

Adding CSS: https://docs.generatepress.com/article/adding-css/

Let me know.

Thanks Leo,

I just tried that – the issue with the Disable Element box is that it removes the page title “Blog” from the Blog page – but also removes the actual blog titles as well from the post loop widget ON that page.

When I applied the CSS you suggested, the same thing happened – all my individual blog titles went away along with the page titles.

The blog page title “Blog” is actually hidden by default – it just shows your posts.

If you would like to add it back, this should help: https://generatepress.com/forums/topic/the-changes-are-not-displayed/#post-161128

Disable Element meta box shouldn’t change anything globally as it’s page specific.

Can you provide a link to your site?

Ahhh, ok. I think I know what happened. When I was first setting up my site I think I may have accidentally deleted the page that was originally intended to the be blog page, and then had to add a NEW page to use for that purpose. Is there anyway to undo this error?

[Leo]

Hmm you would still have to set that page to the Posts page in Dashboard > Settings > Reading.

The page title then would be removed on whichever page you choose to be the Posts page.

Let me know if this makes sense.

Got it!!! I see how to select the blog page. Thank you SO much for helping a beginner!

[Leo]

No problem 🙂
