 * I’ve created two different post pages by using categories, so the pages that 
   are titled News and Blog are both showing a title like the following that I want
   hidden:
 * “Category: News”
 * I’ve read through other posts but none of the solutions work for me. Thank you.

 * [This little snippet of code](https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/hooks/get_the_archive_title/#user-contributed-notes)
   should do the trick for you. It utilizes the filter `get_the_archive_title` to
   strip the prepended text. I’ve not tested it myself.

 * Can hide the title using CSS. Try out this code snippet by adding it to you css
   file.
 * .page-header{
    display:none; }
 * If this fails, all you have to do is inspect the page using chrome developer 
   tools.

 * Look for the class name or page ID
    Then in the code snippet I gave you replace“.
   page-header” with the class name or page id. This should do the job.
 * Or can simply follow this step by step guide to make things a lot easier:

   for me.
