Hi Kelvin,

Thank you for contacting us and I'd be happy to assist.

That text is included by WordPress before the archive titles. by default.

You'll need to use the filter "get_the_archive_title" to remove this text and an example snippet can be found at:
https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/get_the_archive_title/#user-contributed-notes


function my_theme_archive_title( $title ) {
    if ( is_category() ) {
        $title = single_cat_title( '', false );
    } elseif ( is_tag() ) {
        $title = single_tag_title( '', false );
    } elseif ( is_author() ) {
        $title = '<span class="vcard">' . get_the_author() . '</span>';
    } elseif ( is_post_type_archive() ) {
        $title = post_type_archive_title( '', false );
    } elseif ( is_tax() ) {
        $title = single_term_title( '', false );
    }
  
    return $title;
}
 
add_filter( 'get_the_archive_title', 'my_theme_archive_title' );

The above code snippet can be included through either Toolset's custom code feature ( ref: https://toolset.com/documentation/adding-custom-code/using-toolset-to-add-custom-code/ ) or through the active theme's "functions.php" file.

regards,
Waqar
