[SOLVED][Drupal Views] How to remove the descriptive text beneath the exposed filter in a View?
A Drupal user expressed interest in wanting to know how to remove the descriptive text beneath the exposed filter in a View. If you are facing the same question with Drupal Views in your Drupal site and want to know how to remove the descriptive text beneath the exposed filter in a View then continue reading to know more.
Here are the steps suggested by a few Drupal users.
- The easiest way to do that would be to define the string of your choice to be empty in settings.php. For example if the string to be removed is "Enter a comma separated list of user names" then you could use the sample code below.
/** * String overrides: * * To override specific strings on your site with or without enabling locale * module, add an entry to this list. This functionality allows you to change * a small number of your site's default English language interface strings. * * Remove the leading hash signs to enable. */ # $conf['locale_custom_strings_en'][''] = array( # 'forum' => 'Discussion board', # '@count min' => '@count minutes', # ); $conf['locale_custom_strings_en'][''] = array( 'Enter a comma separated list of user names.' => '', );
- However this is not a clean solution as you would not want code like this to be in your settings.php file and the example above should be used only for understanding the method.
- Other elegnant 'Drupal' solutions would be to use the hook_form_views_exposed_form_alter()
- The text could also be removed at the theme level with a preprocess function or a custom.tpl.php
- Finally you could try disabling the text via CSS using a display:none on the div containing the text
Hope that helps.
