Question:
How can I remove a hidden H1 tag that appears on all pages of my site, even though I cannot find it in the Wix Editor?

Product:
Wix Editor

What are you trying to achieve:
I’m trying to fix an SEO issue caused by duplicate H1 tags on every page of my site. My SEO tools flag the hidden H1 as problematic, and I need to remove or hide it permanently so that only my custom H1 tags are recognized by search engines.

What have you already tried:

  1. Inspected the site in browser developer tools and identified the hidden H1 tag:

VANGARDIA

  1. Used the Wix API to hide the element dynamically, but the hidden H1 still shows up in the source code.
  2. Added custom CSS to hide the element:

#comp-m1ryp3ys_r_comp-m1ru5073 {
display: none !important;
}

However, the tag remains in the HTML and is flagged by SEO tools.

Additional information:

  • The hidden H1 is not visible in the Wix Editor, and I can’t locate it to remove or edit it.
  • It seems system-generated and appears on every page of the site.
  • This is negatively affecting my SEO, as having two H1 tags on every page is flagged as an issue.

I would appreciate guidance on how to permanently remove or disable this hidden H1 tag or alternative solutions to resolve the issue.

Thank you
