    Hi
    I’ve taken over a website and I’m still learning WordPress.
    There is a widget in the footer that has a field titled “Buyer” and the title shows up even if the input field is empty. Is there a way to disable it or do I need to get access to the widget code?
    (hopefully this makes sense…)
    Thanks!

    Use CSS to target it and turn it off. If that doesn’t mean anything to you, please provide a link to a page on your site where we can see this. Thanks.

    It depends on your widget code.
    In your widget code, the function widget( $args, $instance ) of WP_Widget will be reloaded. For example:

    
class your_widget_class extends WP_Widget {
    public function widget( $args, $instance ) {                                                                                                                                 
        extract( $args );
        
        $instance['title'] = apply_filters( 'widget_title', empty( $instance['title'] ) ? '' : $instance['title'], $instance, $this->id_base );
        
        echo $before_widget;
            
       <strong> echo empty( $instance['title'] ) ? '' : $before_title . $instance['title'] . $after_title;<em>//This line will judge whether the empty title should be displayed. if your widget doesn't do something like this, the title will always be displayed</em></strong>
            
        if ( ! $output = apply_filters( 'baidu_translator_widget_output', '', $instance, $args ) ) {
            baidu_translator( $instance );
        }
        
        echo $after_widget;
}

    I don’t have access to the widget code (I don’t think…)
    The site is at http://albertacattlebreeders.com/
    The widget is in the footer “Pen of 5”
    Trying to remove the word “Buyer”

    Thanks!
