add_filter( 'get_the_archive_description', '__return_null'); |
Is there a way to implement this for only the Archive Listing Widget used in a sidebar?
The code removes the category description, as intended.
But in the sidebar category listing, the description becomes the title attribute of the link to the category.
Long descriptions look ugly as titles.
I haven’t been able to get that title to not appear.
Thank you. Really appreciate finding this. I was trying everything I see online only your code works.
