    Hi there,

    Just on the brink of launching my website, but I do have one more question. I haven’t been able to find the answer on general WordPress discussions online – and hoped perhaps you are able to help out.

    I use multiple categories of messages and use a category page to display all my messages of the ‘news’ variety: see: http://demodernetijd.nl/nieuws/. This works fine, but I would like my page to say “News” rather than “Category: News” in the page title. Is there a way to remove the text “Category: ” (my page is in Dutch, so actually ‘Categorie: “)?

    Best wishes,

    Rutger

    Hi Rutger

    Thanks for posting. Sure, we can edit the prefix, please, try the following:

    1. Plugins > Add New, search for and install: Code Snippets.
    2. Go to Snippets > Add New, name the snippet as required and insert into the body:

    function ultra_archive_title( $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;
}
add_filter( 'get_the_archive_title', 'ultra_archive_title' );

    Scroll to the bottom of the page and enable the option labelled: Only run on site front-end. Finally, click Save changes and activate.

    Hope that helps.
