What I need to do is keep the page title from showing up twice on my page. On this page http://halesmith.net/guide-services/ I have the page title "Services" showing up in the splash strip, which I want, but it also shows up below it with the page content. I was able to remove it from any posts areas with some editing to loop-functions.php, but it still shows up anywhere I use pages for my content. Any help is much appreciated.

Hello mikey300,
I have edited this out from the page.php and included that in a child theme. Find it attached.
- If you are NOT using a child theme already, just upload it and activate it like any other theme and that should be it.
- If you are already using a child theme, copy the page.php from the attachment to the child theme folder.
Using a child theme is recommended so that custom edits like this is not lost during theme updates. So editing loop-functions.php directly is not ideal.
If you compare the page.php of the original theme and the child theme you will see that i have copied the corresponding function to the file in the child theme before editing it :)

Hey digitsoft,
Child themes are the way to go for all custom edits. All our themes come with child themes, you can find it in the "themes" folder inside the download :)

Hi guys,
Thanks for the info and I am sorry about the redundancy on topics. After looking through your child theme I see the edit I was missing. Thanks to digitsoft and Arun. You guys were very helpful.

Let me know how that goes. Good luck!
