One tiny change I need to make – but don’t know where to look!

    Hello all,

    I had a theme coded for me by a third party, and I want to make a small change to it.

    My developer coded the theme so that all my post titles are bookended by curly brackets. For example, today’s post title is {sugared blooms}.

    I want to stop the curly brackets from appearing automatically in my post titles, but I’m not sure where to look to change this. I went through the stylesheets that my developer gave me, but I didn’t see anything that appears to refer to the post titles and those curly brackets.

    Does anyone have any tips on where I should be looking? Would this be hard-coded somewhere else?

    (I already asked my developer about this, but haven’t heard back…and he is generally tough to get ahold of – hence why I’m posting here.)

    Thanks in advance!

    I’m not entirely sure how the theme was made but typically, you’ll want to edit your page.php and single.php files.

    Look for something like <?php the_title(); ?> . There you should see your brackets before and after this code. Delete the brackets, save, and you should be good to go.

    Thanks a lot, but I figured it out – had to change it in several places, but your instructions were spot-on. ??
