WordPress 5.5 adds a couple new filters that should be useful to adjust the page title displayed in the archive.php template. See this article for more details.
The first is a filter named get_the_archive_title_prefix
which can be used to change or remove the prefix returned when using the function get_the_archive_title
to write out the page title in the archive.php template. Examples:
To replace the archive title prefix with another text, use:
function mytheme_archive_title_prefix( $prefix ){
$prefix = __( 'Currently viewing archives for:', 'my-theme' );
return $prefix;
}
add_filter( 'get_the_archive_title_prefix', 'mytheme_archive_title_prefix' );
To completely remove the archive title prefix, use:
add_filter( 'get_the_archive_title_prefix', '__return_empty_string' );
get_the_archive_title
filter (not function) appears to also be modified to add 2 more parameters in WP 5.5:
$title
: Archive title to be displayed$original_title
: Archive title without prefix (new)$prefix
: Archive title prefix (new)
Example using this hook with 2 new parameters:
function mytheme_get_the_archive_title( $title, $original_title, $prefix ) {
$prefix = '<span class="archive-prefix">' . __( 'Currently viewing archives for:', 'my-theme' ) . '</span>';
$title = '<span class="archive-title">' . $original_title . '</span>';
return $prefix . $title;
}
add_filter( 'get_the_archive_title', 'mytheme_get_the_archive_title', 10, 3 );
