username label refuse to be hidden

I had the same problem. You can hid the username label using css.

@darthtater I found the label is part of the entire div, so I couldn’t find a CSS rule to hide. How did you get it to work with CSS?

My bad. I had to put this in my functions.php file:

/* Remove the login labels, we’ll use placeholders */
function empty_login_labels() {
add_filter( ‘gettext’, ‘username_change’, 20, 3 );
function username_change( $translated_text, $text, $domain )
{
if (preg_match(“/Username|Password/”, $text)) {
$translated_text = ”;
}
return $translated_text;
}
}
add_action( ‘login_head’, ’empty_login_labels’ );
