The example above (https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/single_cat_title/#comment-478) misses translation support. All strings should be translatable.
Examples
This example displays the text “Currently browsing ” followed by the category title.
Result:
Currently browsing WordPress.
This example assigns the current category title to the variable $current_category for use in PHP.
Example: If you want to remove “Category:” in title from category pages just copy and paste in function.php.
Feedback
This only works on top level category not on sub categories.
function wporg_remove_category_title( $title ) { if ( is_category() ) { $title = single_cat_title( '', false ); } return $title; } add_filter( 'remove_the_archive_title', 'wporg_remove_category_title' );
