I use the Socrates theme, this solution worked well on it should work on most themes;

Go to the style.css file and add this line:

#post-982 h2 {display: none;}

The “982″ will need replaced with your page number i.e “158″ or whatever.

If anyone figures out how to do a page range so that you can “set and forget” let us all know!

You’re absolutely right Tim, but back when I wrote this article I hadn’t thought to edit the PHP of my pages. I was only mucking with the CSS and HTML. Thanks for the tip!

I realise that you’re looking for as simple a way of doing this as possible.

However, as you’re doing this for all pages, wouldn’t it be better to edit your theme files to remove the page titles from the HTML, rather than leaving them in the HTML and hiding them using CSS. That would be a more efficient, more accessible, tidier way of doing it.

If you look for “the_title();” in your page.php theme file, you should be able to locate the code to remove relatively easily.

Yes might prevent all h2 headers from displaying. To get around this, make another header in your CSS file and call it something new (like h5 or h6, something that isn’t used yet). Then style it the same way you had h2 styled. Then when you need to use a font with the h2 size/shape, use h6 (or which ever one you created) instead.
