  • Very, very handy!

    Slim plugin, does exactly what it promises. Using with Exoplanet Pro theme. Hope it will be maintained in the future. Great for a quick fix instead of coding and using a child theme.

  • Excellent, works just fine

    Thanks for this. Was very useful in my case as I just wanted to completely remove the title "Category" from category archive listings. In settings I simply removed "Category:" and left untouched "%s" in order to keep the category's title. Works like a charm.

  • Works great!

    Hello. This plugin resolve a lot of problems regarding manual custom code required to display the tags in other way as usual. Thanks!
