Hello,

When I use this widget:

http://take.ms/uuUH9

It looks like this:

http://take.ms/P9oyc

So the name is duplicated somehow. Can you help?

Thanks.

Yeah… some funky bug in the latest version of WordPress for both the archives and the category widget … team effort — there was fix posted last week on this …. don’t have link handy …

tagdiv provided fix for categories and I added fix for archives …

oh wait, I can just look at my custom css (duH!)….

and the magic secret sauce is:

.widget_categories label {
display: none;
}
.widget_archive label {
display: none;
}

the duplicate title appears in all themes — not just tagdiv, as I noticed the same issue on couple of my older sites too. Annoying they didn’t catch that in WP 4.2.x.

Hello Chris and Alin,

Thanks for help! It worked like a charm.

I think it would be great if you add little things like this to your documentation.

Not really worth it since it’s a temporary bug in WordPress – introduced with v 4.2x – nothing related to theme.

Hopefully WordPress will catch this and fix it in the next update.
