Remove “Private:” From WordPress Titles
I needed to be able filter out the text "Private:" for posts and pages that were password protected but did not want to edit any core WordPress files. To filter out that text, I added the following code into my functions.php file (within my theme directory):
-
function remove_private_prefix($title) {
-
'Private:',
-
'',
-
$title);
-
return $title;
-
}
-
add_filter('the_title','remove_private_prefix');
(I also posted this filter in the WordPress Support Forum)
