Hello, the description of the category appears on the menu and I need to know how to edit that out. I know I can remove the description, but my client insists on leaving that in for SEO reasons.

Where can I remove that feature please? I have never come across this problem before.

Please, contact administrator
for this information.

Hello,

Go to Appearance > Menus > Screen Options at the top and select “Description”. Then open menu item where you see description and remove it.

Best regards,
Jack Richardson.

Hello,

I explicitly stated that I know I can remove the description, but my client wants it left in for SEO reasons. Usually, category description does not show up as a menu name.

The way descriptions are prepended to the menu name makes it unreadable.

Please suggest a fix on how to remove from menu without deleting the content of the category description.

Hello,

You need edit the \wp-content\themes\royal\framework\theme-functions.php file on line 3753
Find the following code
$item_output .= $description;
and replace with
$item_output .= '<span style="display:none;">' . $description . '</span>';

Thank you so much for your prompt and helpful response. Sorry if I was snarky earlier. I apologize

Applying your fix gave me the following error.
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '&' in /home/norcam4/ahiaonline.com/wp-content/themes/royal/framework/theme-functions.php on line 3750

Fixing the error sent me on a rollercoaster of other errors. Please help.

Please, contact administrator
