Remove "Uncategorized" Title from Top of Blog Posts on Home Page

What I did to resolve that ( but there may be other / better options out there – just my 2 cents worth ) is to click on Categories, edit the “Uncategorized” listing and rename it to something you would use.

Yes i thought of that as well but unnecessary if every post is named the same exact thing over and over. I need to be able to remove that heading for good.

Hi Gurumahes,

The post names should not actually have had that added to the name, I think it is likely that your posts’ names are being formed automatically by combining their category and post names. If you change the Category name it should help.

The post title’s joining of the category and title likely happens at either the theme level or with a plugin. SEO plugins often change titles in that matter. Are you running any?

Sorry, i think you are misunderstanding the problem. The issue is that every time i post an article, on the top left of the thumbnail on the home page there is a little tab that displays which category it is from. This has nothing to do with the post title.

Click the link below of the theme sample and you will see it as a pink tab on the thumbnail. I would like to remove that.

Hi Gurumahes,

Because that is not an open-source theme I don’t have access to the code to recommend how you would edit the theme’s code to remove that. There should be code using get_the_category() or something like that in your theme that you can edit.

If you’re having difficulty finding it, I think Theme Forrest has its own support forums? Someone there with full access to the theme’s code would be better able to advise you.
