Hi,

you can add these lines in Additional HTML (additionalhtmlfooter)
<script>
    $(".activityname").prev().css('display', 'none');
</script>

Thank you Dominique. I have added the script that but It's not working. Any other setting needed?

You can use this css to do that:

.activitytitle .text-uppercase { display: none; }

This new element is called the "activitytitle". CSS for this and some variants of it is already posted over this discussion in the Themes forum, thanks to Bob Gilmore. That discussion has a lot of other fixes too.

Many thanks, Randy. I am relatively new to CSS and am beginning to learn it.

Hi,

the Randy solution is far better. I've missed the class .ctivitytitle...
when you add the css you've to put it between the tag style

<style>
....
</style>

You can also put this in the css area for a theme as well. For the default theme Boost, you can put this in Site admin > Appearance > Themes > Boost > Advanced settings > Raw SCSS.

As general rule, if I only need pure css / scss in a theme, I put it there in the Raw SCSS box. If I need some actual html, I put it in Additional HTML. But that's just how I do it: do whatever works for you naeratus

Most third party themes have such a css box, though it may have a different name, such as "Custom CSS" etc. if you have several themes on the site, and want the change to apply to all the themes, you can put it in Additional HTML too since it affects all the pages. That does not mean any particular css will work properly in every theme, however, since some themes change how some css selectors work, but if it does, it can save you work since there is only one place to have to change things.

Thanks a lot Randy!

That worked to remove the "activitytitle" from the course main page.

Anyone know to to also target the activity page? (once the user click to enter the activity)...





Thanks!

Add to CSS:

div .text-muted.text-uppercase.small.line-height-3 { display: none; }

I don't now but I don't get the impression it works that way. It just 'greases the wheel', so to speak.

What a blunder!

I added the first comment to MDL-75204. Tried my best to keep a polite tone. It was difficult, believe me!

If you update to the latest version of M4.0 or M4.1, the activity type only displays now when in editing mode.
