Hiding Your WordPress Pages With CSS 

Hiding All Pages

The first method for hiding your web pages will be by adding CSS.

Head on over to WordPress Dashboard > Appearance > Customize. On the left hand menu, click on the Additional CSS section. 

Then in the blank text editor, add the following code:

1
.page .entry-title {
2
display: none;
3
}

Finally, click on the Publish button. All of the page titles on your WordPress pages should now be hidden.

Hiding Specific Pages

If you want to hide specific pages on your WordPress site, you need to find the page id and then you can add the CSS code. 

To find the page id, go to the page you want to hide the title of in WordPress Dashboard > Pages > All Pages. From the list of pages that pop up in the main section of the dashboard, find the page you want to add. 

Under the page, hover over the Edit link, but don’t click it. The bottom of your browser will now display the page id. The page id will follow post= in the URL. 

Once you have this number, you’re ready to add it to the CSS code.

Go back to the Appearance > Customize > Additional CSS. Add the following code with your specific page id number:

1
.page-id-3 .entry-title{
2
display:none;
3
}

Replace .page-id-3 with the ID from the page you are trying to hide the title from.
