Force catergory index page to display title if titles don't exist on posts…

  • Hi,

    I have a category page which displays all my posts in a certain category. Now these posts have their titles hidden as for design purposes the titles are done with large images for each article.

    What I found out is that if every post has its title hidden then the category page also hides its title (and the subtitle which in my theme it gets from the category description)

    I asked the theme author and he said this is a limitation of WordPress and it gets its instruction to display the category from one of the posts and if you have the category hidden on all 10 posts (for example) then it will be hidden on the category page.

    I wondered if I could change any part of the wordpress code to force it to display the title and subtitle on the category page? Currently my work around is to add a dummy post with no content but its title not hidden, but its not really ideal.
