How to display the page title/content in the Posts page?
In order to display the actual page title/content of the “posts page” use the following code:
Page Title
Use get_the_title():
echo apply_filters( ‘the_title’, get_the_title( get_option( ‘page_for_posts’ ) ) );
Page Content
Use get_post_field():
echo apply_filters( ‘the_content’, get_post_field( ‘post_content’, get_option( ‘page_for_posts’ ) ) );
In both cases, wrap the output in an apply_filters() call, so that the post title and post content are rendered the same as they would be normally. Otherwise, the data returned via get_the_title() and get_post_field() would lack the usual formatting that WordPress applies via the_title() and the_content(), respectively.
