hiding block titles

In your theme's style.css you can set the title of the blocks not to display

eg.

#sidebar-left .title {
display: none;
}

Best regards,

Just name them something like:

<!-- MyBlock -->

I'm not sure though. I read this somewhere in the forums. Can't find the post though. I know it works for menus.

Although there are several workarounds for keeping titles from displaying in blocks, I don't understand why there isn't a check box to toggle the stankin thing on or off.

This has got to be one of the most frequently asked questions on this site, and it seems that it could be addressed with a simple check box in the admin form...

[x] Hide title
^{If checked, the title will not be displayed in the block.}

The CSS trick works, but unless you want all box titles hidden, and not just some, you have to go view the source and find out what the id of your block is so you can put a css rule for that one box, and even them you really only hide it for css capable browsers, it's still there.

Blocks by nature are supposed to serve a wide variety of purposes and the pervasive title issue seems to try to force them all to be the same kind of thing.

I probably wouldn't care but I have way too many display: none rules clogging up my css sheet when they shouldn't. CSS is to control presentation, and this is an issue of content. I don't want a title because I don't want it in my content, not because I want it there but I don't want anyone to see it.

Is there anyway to have 2 blocks with the same name?

I have a site where I want to have a "Sponsored Links" tower from Gogole both on the left and right on some pages. For now, I just hardcoded one into the template itself.

Hi,
We're looking at making the shift from Mambo driven sites, and mostly all is going well...

I am in the same position, wanting some blocks with headers, and some without. Don't really want to have the hack the file every time as its a little un-dynamic and seems like a step backwards. I tried the commenting but ended up with title with

in them.

I tried not entering a title, but the

tags remained and thats not a good look for code validation.

any other answers?

Thanks a lot, I've heard this is a very good community,

Hiding block titles

Hello everybody,

Here is how I have managed hide my titles in drupal 4.6

Basically, I told my template not to show the module title if it contains one or more white spaces at its beginning.

I was using phpTemplate, so I have copied the default file named block.tpl.php from the /themes/engines/phptemplate folder. Then, I have change the file from this :

<div class="<?php print "block block-$block->module" ?>" id="<?php print "block-$block->module-$block->delta"; ?>">
  <h2><?php print $block->subject ?></h2>
  <div class="content"><?php print $block->content ?></div>
</div>

to that :

<?php
  $hide_title = false;
  if (ltrim($block->subject) != $block->subject){
    //Do not show any title if there are some white space at the beginning of the title
    $hide_title = true;
  }
?>
<div class="<?php print "block block-$block->module" ?>" id="<?php print "block-$block->module-$block->delta"; ?>">
  <?php if (!$hide_title) {?><h2><?php print $block->subject ?></h2><?php }  ?>
  <div class="content"><?php print $block->content ?></div>
</div>
