Hi! There’s some extraneous text on my site that I’d like to remove. I’m using the Ethos child theme. My site’s URL is magazine.isbel.com, and we’re using WordPress 3.9.1

1. In the category sections, I want to get rid of the two sections at the very top that say the name of the category, ex. “Products” in small type, and then the larger part that says “Category Archive”. See here: http://magazine.isbel.com/category/products/
We’d like to just have the list of posts appear, not the text above them.

2. Second problem seems similar to the small category name issue at the top of the category pages. On each individual post, above the main headline/name of the post in larger text, it says the name of the post in smaller type just under the primary navbar/menu. Here’s an example of what it looks like WITHOUT a featured image: http://magazine.isbel.com/2014/07/free-to-be-sensual-americas-history-of-sexual/
And here’s how it is WITH a featured image – the smaller text just goes above the featured image and the headline goes below: http://magazine.isbel.com/2014/07/mr-grey-will-see-you-now-women-react-to-the-steamy/
We’d like to remove the small text with the post name at the top!

I have a limited working knowledge of how to change the code myself, and couldn’t find a way to do it in the customizer. I already downloaded and installed the child theme for Ethos so that edits won’t be overwritten. Please help!

If you give me a block of code and tell me where to put it, I should be able to handle that – I’m just not able to write anything to fix the problems myself. Thanks!! 🙂

Hi Dom,

Thanks for writing in!

1) To do so, add the following CSS codes via Customizer > Custom > CSS:

.category .x-header-landmark {
    display: none;
}

And then go Customizer > Header > Uncheck Enable Breadcrumbs box there.

2) If you uncheck the Enable Breadcrumbs box mentioned just above then won’t show also.

Hope this helps, Cheers!

Hi,

Just searching the knowledge base and I came across this topic that is similar to the problem I’m having.

I want to write 2 “blogs” on the same site (www.adulthostels.com). So I set-up the menu with 2 categories (Hostelife and Blog) and I’m able to split my articles to go to whichever menu I want. However, the title on those pages is “category archive”. I wanted the category title instead. How do I correct (I don’t want to display no title)? Or, is there a better way to split the articles?

BTW, site far from finished.

While we’re on this page, how do you remove the red hover over the feature images?

Thanks!

Hey Marshall,

You can utilize the Archive Title option for that. Please edit your category (see http://prntscr.com/4ivsw0).

Hope that helps. 🙂

Hi Andy,

You can add this under Custom > CSS in the Customizer.

.archive.category .x-header-landmark {
   display:none;
}

Hope that helps.

hey, sorry i really need help. where can I find the customizer to do like this:

1) To do so, add the following CSS codes via Customizer > Custom > CSS:

.category .x-header-landmark {
display: none;
}

Is this a plugin? Or can I remove the category archive title in the wordpress editor? But there I can´t find category.php or something else.

Hi there,

You can add the code under Custom > CSS in the Customizer (located under Appearance > Customize; see: http://prntscr.com/7xiwsr).

Thanks!

[svenja123Participant]

Hey,
thanks but under Appearance isn´t the option Customizer to find. How can I activate this?

[DarshanaModerator]

Hi there,

It seems you have translation enabled in WordPress, this is the location of the Customizer in your website: http://prntscr.com/7xotl9, under Design > Anpassen.

Thanks!

Hey thank you, I am a beginner, sorry for that. Now I want to hide the sentence “Below you’ll find a list of all items that have been categorized as “Handstücke””.

How can I do this?

Also it would be great if I can hide the number of results and the drop down menu with the sortings selection on the category page.

Thank you for your help….
