Hi,

This is a WP issue, not a theme issue. WP automatically adds a title attribute of “View all post filed under…” to category links generated by wp_list_categories(), or uses the category description for this, if it exists.

If you want to display different title text, you either have to hack a core file (not recommended), or see if there is a filter you can hook into to write your own function. If I get time, I’ll look into this.

In the Studio Press Magazine theme, adding text to the Posts>Categories>Description field, populates the title tag on the Category navigation bar. How do I change this?
