Hiding Titles and Descriptions:

You can hide titles and descriptions in these templates:

• Adirondack: Via "Show page titles and descriptions" setting
• Five: Change "Banner content" option
• Momentum: Use "Page title/description" setting (except Index pages)
• Montauk: "Hide page title" or "Hide page banner" options
• Pacific: "Show page title" toggle
• York: Individual controls for each page type

Alternative Options:

• Add Layout pages with custom title text
• Use individual page headers where supported
• Add content sections to stacked Index pages

SEO Considerations:

• SEO titles and descriptions are separate from page titles/descriptions
• Only visible in search results, not on your site
• Manage through SEO tab in page settings
• Useful for optimizing search visibility while maintaining different on-site display

Note: In version 7.1, descriptions cannot be added, but titles remain editable and visible in browser tabs and search results when no SEO title exists.
