    How to I remove “Category:” before the category?

    Example:
    I have a category called NEWS. When I go to NEWS, “Category: NEWS” displays at the top.

    I want it to display just NEWS.

    Thank you for your help!

    Hi,

    try add this code to functions.php, if you know more about coding so it’s a best practice to create a child theme and then add this code to the child functions.php.

    
add_filter( 'get_the_archive_title', function ($title) {

    if ( is_category() ) {

            $title = single_cat_title( '', false );

        } elseif ( is_tag() ) {

            $title = single_tag_title( '', false );

        } elseif ( is_author() ) {

            $title = '<span class="vcard">' . get_the_author() . '</span>' ;

        }

    return $title;

});

    That did not work, but I played around a little bit with the functions.php file and found a fix.

    Change the bold:

    From:
    <?php the_archive_title( ‘<h2 class=”archive-title”>’, ‘</h2>’ ); ?>

    To:
    <?php single_cat_title( ‘<h2 class=”archive-title”>’, ‘</h2>’ ); ?>
