Remove Another Page Name

Genesis 2.7.1
Breakthrough Pro Pro 1.0.0

Previously I asked how to remove a page name from the front page.

Victor Font shared this bit of code which worked:

add_action( 'get_header', 'child_remove_page_titles' );
function child_remove_page_titles() {
    $pages = array( '8391' );
    if ( is_page( $pages ) ) {
        remove_action( 'genesis_entry_header', 'genesis_do_post_title' );
    }
}

This time I want to also remove the title "Blog" from the Blog page. So I guessed and added another page id. Nothing happened. What did I do incorrectly?

add_action( 'get_header', 'child_remove_page_titles' );
function child_remove_page_titles() {
    $pages = array( '8391','8393' );
    if ( is_page( $pages ) ) {
        remove_action( 'genesis_entry_header', 'genesis_do_post_title' );
    }
}

Your Blog page has a different kind of title altogether. It doesn't look like you're using the Genesis blog template either. The source looks like the WordPress blog page, which means you're working outside of the Genesis Framework. So, Genesis commands won't work.

To remove the title from the WordPress posts page add this to functions.php:

add_filter( 'the_title', 'custom_posts_page_title', 10, 2 );
/**
 * Sets custom title for the Posts page.
 *
 * @param  string $title Current title.
 * @param  int $id The post ID.
 *
 * @return string Modified title.
 */
function custom_posts_page_title( $title, $id ) {
    // get the id of Posts page.
    $posts_page = get_option( 'page_for_posts' );

    // if we are not on an inner Posts page, abort.
    if ( ! is_home() || is_front_page() ) {
        return $title;
    }

    // if the current entry's ID matches with that of the Posts page..
    if ( $id == $posts_page ) {
        // set your new title here.
        $title = '';
    }

    return $title;
}
