Tried everything to remove title on “Shop” Page

.post-type-archive-product .page-title {
  display:none
}

Unfortunately that one didn’t work either. Any other suggestions??

I can’t find it in the page. If its still in there where did you put it. Otherwise please could you pop it back in so I can debug it.

If you have WP 4.7, custom css can be entered at:
Dashboard > Appearance > Customise > Additional CSS

Well that’s new! It worked when I plugged it in there! Thank you!

Previously (for over a year) I had been using Appearance>Editor> and then choosing style.css under my child theme, and pasting CSS coding at the bottom of the file. Is this an incorrect way of implementing CSS changes? i.e. have I been doing it wrong?

I have quite a bit of custom coding in that css file from my child theme. Is none of that coding relevant? Should I just delete it?

Thank you for your assistance.

/function-child/style.css is a good place for styles, and I’ve found this latest snippet in there now. Unfortunately it contains syntax errors. In some cases with css, a syntax error can result in subsequent styles not being read by the browser.

Consider validating that file using this service:
https://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/
Some errors can be tolerated, perfection is not realistic, but the parse errors need to be fixed.

Any idea why the code you provided me did not work in Appearance>Editor> but did in Dashboard > Appearance > Customise > Additional CSS ?

Because there was a parse error higher up in Appearance>Editor. This prevented subsequent lines from being read.

Probably a curly bracket missing or one too many. Could be an unclosed comment.
