Add plugin support for page (as a custom post type) in functions.php?

Related: http://wpsites.net/best-plugins/add-custom-post-type-support-to-genesis-simple-menus-plugin/

But the Genesis Title Toggle plugin suggests a different method

Finally, if you're comfortable with code you can use the be_title_toggle_post_types filter to change the post types this applies to (it only applies to pages by default).

Perhaps Bill Erickson's site provides the code for the above?

https://wordpress.org/plugins/genesis-title-toggle/ works on pages (not posts). So it should work on pages (I misread your thread, sorry).

[DTHkelly]

I found the applicable code limiting Genesis Title Toggle to pages [lines 61-66 in genesis-title-toggle.php:

	function setting_defaults( $defaults ) {
		$post_types = apply_filters( 'be_title_toggle_post_types', array( 'page' ) );
		foreach ( $post_types as $post_type )
			$defaults[] = array( 'be_title_toggle_' . $post_type => '' );
		return $defaults;
	}

The $post_types array needs to include , 'post' as well as page.

Also lines 73-80:

	function sanitization() {
		$fields = array();
		$post_types = apply_filters( 'be_title_toggle_post_types', array( 'page' ) );
		foreach ( $post_types as $post_type )
			$fields[] = 'be_title_toggle_' . $post_type;
			
	    genesis_add_option_filter( 'one_zero', GENESIS_SETTINGS_FIELD, $fields );	
	}

Lines 98-104:

	function create_sitewide_metabox() {
		$post_types = apply_filters( 'be_title_toggle_post_types', array( 'page' ) );
		foreach ( $post_types as $post_type )
			echo '<p><input type="checkbox" name="' . GENESIS_SETTINGS_FIELD . '[be_title_toggle_' . $post_type . ']" id="' . GENESIS_SETTINGS_FIELD . '[be_title_toggle_' . $post_type . ']" value="1" ' . checked( 1, genesis_get_option( 'be_title_toggle_' . $post_type ), false ) .' /> <label for="' . GENESIS_SETTINGS_FIELD . '[be_title_toggle_' . $post_type . ']"> ' . sprintf( __( 'By default, remove titles in the <strong>%s</strong> post type.', 'genesis-title-toggle' ), $post_type ) .'</label></p>';

	
	}

Lines 125-132:

		$show = array();
		$hide = array();
		$post_types = apply_filters( 'be_title_toggle_post_types', array( 'page' ) );
		foreach ( $post_types as $post_type ) {
			$default = genesis_get_option( 'be_title_toggle_' . $post_type );
			if ( !empty( $default ) ) $show[] = $post_type;
			else $hide[] = $post_type;
		}

Lines 178-183

	function initialize_cmb_meta_boxes() {
		$post_types = apply_filters( 'be_title_toggle_post_types', array( 'page' ) );
	    if ( !class_exists('cmb_Meta_Box') && !empty( $post_types ) ) {
	        require_once( dirname( __FILE__) . '/lib/metabox/init.php' );
	    }
	}

So for the first one I'd have the below?

function setting_defaults( $defaults ) {
$post_types = apply_filters( 'be_title_toggle_post_types', array( 'page' , 'post') );
foreach ( $post_types as $post_type )
$defaults[] = array( 'be_title_toggle_' . $post_type => '' );
return $defaults;
}

Just to clarify, when I turn it on, it is removing the title on both my pages and the posts on the blog page (the list of posts on the page). http://www.roxineolivia.com/success-blog

What I want is the title removed from the pages, but on the posts listed on the blog page, I want the titles to show.

Site looks great - you picked a terrific childtheme!

I thought this plugin included a metabox to let you choose on a per page/post basis whether to "toggle" the title (keep/remove). (I don't use it.)

For individual pages, you want the title removed. (standard for this plugin)

For individual posts, you also want the title removed? -

And for Blog page, archiving posts, you want the post titles to show? If so, for the Blog page you may need a custom loop if this plugin is removing those titles as well..

Example:http://sridharkatakam.com/show-post-titles-category-pages-genesis/

Or perhaps an easier way to re-create a blog/archive page:

Thank you 🙂

The only place I want the title removed is on Pages. Like my about page, services etc. I do want titles to appear on posts but if you see on my site, on the blog page there is no titles on the abbreviated posts. If I turn the toggle off, the title appears. I guessing its reading them as page titles because its on the blog "page"?

The plugin does include a meta box on the Theme settings page but the only option it give is " By default, remove titles in the page post type." and I can select or deselect

[RoxG]

I'll give the custom content shortcode a try!

[DTHkelly]

If you don't have a lot of pages, it may be simpler to use php to specify which pages should have no title.
And you can deactivate the plugin.
http://www.rickrduncan.com/wordpress/remove-genesis-page-titles
From the tutorial, change the page IDs to your page IDs, and add the modified code to your functions.php
[I use https://wordpress.org/plugins/code-snippets/%5D

//* Remove page title for multiple pages
//* Change '3645' and '4953' to match your needs
add_action( 'get_header', 'child_remove_page_titles' );
function child_remove_page_titles() {
$pages = array( 3645,4953 );
if ( is_page( $pages ) ) {
remove_action( 'genesis_post_title', 'genesis_do_post_title' );
}
}

You can use Reveal IDs https://wordpress.org/plugins/reveal-ids-for-wp-admin-25/ to find the ID # for each page.

Hi @RoxG!

I think the problem you're having on your website is actually too much code 🙂

The plugin Genesis Title Toggle by design and by default will only remove titles from Pages, and nothing else.

However, if you also added the snippet of code (from your second post in this thread) that Kelly suggested, it would also add Posts to the list of post types with titles removed.

So if you remove all extra code relating to removing titles, and just use the plugin, that should result in the behavior you want. The Installation instructions even describe how to remove all titles from all pages as a default setting:

Go to Genesis > Theme Settings > Title Toggle to remove titles on all pages by default.

If removing any extra title code and having just the plugin doesn't work, then there must be another conflict somewhere.
