Hey, I’ve been trying to add pages to my site. I’ve been using category to make new pages, but no matter what the title, it has a prefix of category in it.

So if I name a category – smokables, it will come up as ‘category: smokables’. How do I remove the category from it?

The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi there,

Unfortunately that can’t be removed with CSS and is built into the theme (see this page on the demo https://gazettedemo.wordpress.com/category/cars/ )

Sorry I can’t offer you a nice easy fix,

Hey Sagebrownell,

This seems to happen in each theme, including Hemingway Rewritten which I had used earlier for a different blog, and did not include ‘category’ in the title.

Could it not be a bug of some sorts since I have just bought the site, and it does say that certain things will take 72 hours?

Hey there,

It isn’t a bug, it’s just a default setting I guess through multiple themes. It’s on the demo site so probably won’t be changing on yours.

Sorry about that,
Sage
