Remove the 'Private:' title for private posts
If you are creating private pages or posts for certain members to view, you will notice by default WordPress adds 'Private:' to the title. So the title 'Secret Page/Post' will actually be 'Private: Secret Page/Post'. This is not necessarily what you want the user to see.
So here is the solution:
1. Open the 'functions.php' file that's in your themes folder and add the following code to the end.
function remove_private_prefix($title) {
$title = str_replace(
'Private:',
'',
$title);
return $title;
}
add_filter('the_title','remove_private_prefix');Now the 'Private:' part of the title should no longer appear.
