Hi there!

I would like to remove
```
<h1 class="page-title">

<?php

printf(__('Category Archive: <span>%s</span>', 'graphene'), single_cat_title('', false));

?>

</h1>
```
from category.php using my child theme. For some reason, The category.php file is not showing up when I view the theme files with the built-in editor.

I made an exact copy of the file from the original theme and placed it in the child theme folder.

any ideas?

Just create an empty category.php file in your child theme folder.

I created an empty one, i tried to do it a few times and no good, although i am not a code expert.

You know, I create a new one with the modified code and it doesn’t work. A hint might be the fact that the theme editor doesn’t show category.php when the child theme is selected.

I just tried it and it works…

What’s your website URL so I can take a look?
