Can someone please help me with deleting the word category from menu

I am turning my categories into menus, but if you click on any of the menu items besides home each one of them has category: with the title of the page, is there any way I can have this not show up. I have tried the css code .page-title {display: none;} with .entry-title and without, but it has not worked.

This is my favorite theme and I hope to be able to work my personal bugs out before purchasing it.

Hi busyfitwoman,
Thanks for joining our forum

Please tell me which theme are you using? Is it RedWaves lite?

If you want to remove the whole title, this CSS code will work ( go to Appearance => Customize => Custom CSS and add the below code to Custom CSS textarea ):

.category .page-header {
	display: none;
}

If you want to delete just the word category and keep the category title; ie: you have a category named "Best Offers". By visiting category archive page, you will see "Category: Best Offers" as page title. If you want to delete "Category:" and keep "Best Offers", CSS won't be able to do the trick. We need to use PHP. The below code will achieve this but you need to add it to your theme functions.php file. WordPress has a built in code editor which you can use to add this code. Go to Appearance => Editor, click "Theme Functions (functions.php)" and add the below code at the end then save:

function redwaves_lite_remove_prefix_from_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', 'redwaves_lite_remove_prefix_from_archive_title' );

Not just "Category:" will be stripped from the archive title, but also "Author:" and "Tag:".
