I have a drop down menu that uses the page titles. I am trying to remove the page names being repeated at the top of each single page. I have implemented code that removes it by inserting php code in the index.php file around the class="post-headline" code, but it also removes the post titles when you click on a post and it goes to a single page view.

No title looks bad. How do I keep post titles on single pages, but get rid of the repeat of the page title. It just takes up room and I have full length titles for each page anyway. Page names when used in a menu may be short such as "info", but I do not want "info" as my title for the page.

Home page is the blog. Click on any other page and the page name is gone (good)

Click on a post and the title is gone (bad)

Code that was used (from previous threads):

<!-- Post Headline -->
<?php
if (!is_page() AND !is_single()) { ?>
<div class="post-headline">
<h2><?php

if( !is_single() AND !is_page() ) { ?>
<a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php
if (function_exists('the_title_attribute')) {
the_title_attribute();
}
elseif (function_exists('the_title')) {
the_title();
} ?>"><?php
} the_title();


if( !is_single() AND !is_page() ) { ?>
</a><?php
} ?>
</h2>
</div>
<?php } ?>

This replaced the code in the index.php:

<!-- Post Headline -->
<div class="post-headline">
<h2><?php
if( !is_single() AND !is_page() ) { ?>
<a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php
if (function_exists('the_title_attribute')) {
the_title_attribute();
}
elseif (function_exists('the_title')) {
the_title();
} ?>"><?php
} the_title();
if( !is_single() AND !is_page() ) { ?>
</a><?php
} ?>
</h2>
</div>

Any thoughts? regards RB

hey dude,

checked out your site, looks good!

i believe the answer your looking for is:


Goto your styles.css file and do a find for: div.post.headline {

create a new line after the { and add the following: display:none


let me know if that helps!

If you like Atahualpa check out my site www.ComputerEverything.net

I am having the same problem.

Based on what computereverything suggested, below is the edited code in styles.css. Is this correct, it does not seem to have any effect?

div.post-headline {
display:none
	/* more  ... */
	}

The code you used

PHP Code:

  if( !is_single() AND !is_page() ) 


means "if this is not a post, and not a page"

Use

PHP Code:

  if( !is_page() ) 


for "if this is not a page"

or

PHP Code:

  if( is_page() ) 


for "if this IS a page"

The theme still requires PHP edits in theme files for certain customizations, but you should never have to edit style.css to add CSS, there's Atahualpa Theme Options -> HTML/CSS Inserts -> CSS Inserts for that

div.page div.post-headline {
display: none;
}

Note that Google might object to this since you're basically "hiding" text, vene if only a little bit of text. I am adding a PHP based "don't display titles on pages" option in the next version.

Cool! Thanks Flynn. I'll hold out to the updated then.

Hi Flynn,

By next version do you mean 3.3.4 ?

Regards

I need to know how to remove the page titles that show up on my pages themselves. For example: I do not want the word "Services" listed on my page before I list my services.

See here how the "Welcome" shows up at the beginning of the page text:

http://threebuddiespaintandbody.com/

Also I have version 3.6.7

And, I will need very specific instructions. Pretend like you are addressing a six year old when you explain how I can accomplish this task.

I would also like a tab (page) that says "Home" but I do not want it to include any text. I just want that page to go to www.threebuddiespaintandbody.com.

Thanking you in advance.
