Hello Warriors,

I tried to search for plugins that could allow me to remove or hide a particular wordpress page title but unfortunately, I had no luck yet.

Do you know of some plugins that could do that?

Good for those themes like headway that we will just check a check box to hide a page title.

I tried adding this to the stylesheet:

#post-23 h2 {display:none;}

wherein the "23" is the specific Page's ID, still no luck.

Your help will be very much appreciated.

Thanks,
Louie Tugas

    Try this
    <? php if (is_page('pageslug' )) { ?>
    // title removed
    <?php } else { ?>
    <h1><?php the_title(); ?></h1>
    <?php } ?>

      Thanks for the suggestion, however I am referring to a particular title page only and not all.

      Please keep them coming.

        The only way I can think of is creating another page template for example page-no-title.php copy and past the code from page.php and just remove the title and when you add new page you can choose with or without title from the page attributes.

        Not sure how good you are with PHP... but the above should be easy to do

          Thanks Fadiz, I will try this one. I can trace and understand php codes.

    I am still not clear what exactly are you trying to do...
    - removing the title of the Page (as opposed to post) on the top of the content?
    - removing the title of a post from somewhere (your code in the OP refers to posts, not Page; your thread title talks about Page...)
    - removing the title tag from the top bar of the browser?

    BTW, for the first option above Fadiz's code was perfect: it removes the title ONLY for the Page whose slug is put into the code!

      Hello Sir Istvan,

      Thanks for the inputs.

      This is exactly what I want done: removing the title of the Page (as opposed to post) on the top of the content!

      I am still testing everything I can.

      Thanks,
      Louie Tugas

        Hey if you still didn't figure it out give me admin access for 5 mins and i'll do it for you, most likely it will take me 2 mins. or send me your page.php file use pastebin.com

      This is the page, | Texas Auto or Car Insurance , however, you can't see anymore the Page Title because I removed it inside the wp admin dashboard which is not good for SEO.

      There are actually 10 video pages that I need to remove the page title above the contents.

      If I will remove the 10 page titles inside the admin dashboard, I would have 10 "no title" pages. The other video pages are still empty at this point in time, and only the huge page titles are displayed which I would like to be hidden/removed.

      I am using the eVid theme of the Elegant themes and I have already customized the site a bit.

      Thanks,
      Louie Tugas

    What Fadiz didn't tell you

    Edit your page.php template (normally, that's the one used to display your Pages).

    Find <?php the_title(); ?>

    REPLACE it with Fadiz's code and put the slug of the Page instead of pageslug;
    i.e. if your Page is title "About Us" the slug is 'about-us' <-- you can see it when editing your Page, above the content, as permalink, highlighted with yellow...

    <? php if (is_page('about-us' )) { ?>
    // title removed
    <?php } else { ?>
    <h1><?php the_title(); ?></h1>
    <?php } ?>


    P.S. If the title of that Page doesn't need to appear anywhere (like in menus, Pages list etc.) - then you could just simply delete whatever is in the Title field; WP will still keep the slug and permalink! If the Page title has to appear in a menu or something like that - this won't work.

      Thank you so much for your detailed inputs Sir Istvan. Finally, we have sorted it out.

      You have helped me several times already with my wordpress issues.

      You got it right Istvan however I just deleted <?php the_title(); ?> in a new template and that pretty much solved the problem.

      Hey Istvan let's go find more challenging problems to solve you in? lol
