In the code below, I wanted to remove the title of the paper "Assignment 1", from the body of the paper in the apa6-document class template (title on page 2 of the document).
Just under the running header of the first page of the body, the section heading ("Introduction"), should appear first.
Here is the code:
\documentclass[man,12pt,floatsintext,longtable,noextraspace,natbib,letterpaper]{apa6}
\usepackage{layouts}
\geometry{reset, letterpaper, height=9in, width=6.1in, hmarginratio=1:1, vmarginratio=1:1, marginparsep=0pt, marginparwidth=0pt, headheight=15pt}
\usepackage[english]{babel}
\usepackage[utf8x]{inputenc}
\usepackage{amsmath}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage[colorinlistoftodos]{todonotes}
\usepackage[hidelinks]{hyperref}
\PassOptionsToPackage{hyphens}{url}\usepackage{hyperref}
\usepackage{lipsum}
\hypersetup{breaklinks=true}
\usepackage{mathptmx}
\urlstyle{rm}
\hypersetup{
colorlinks = true,
urlcolor = black,
citecolor = black,
}
\title{\vspace{-5.5cm}Assignment 1 \protect\\ Name of Paper\vspace{6.5cm}}
\shorttitle{Short Title of Paper}
\author{by\\Author Name\\EEE XXXX\\Name of Class\vspace{8.7cm}}
\affiliation{Name of University\\ June 5th, 2016}
\setcounter{page}{0}
\abstract{\lipsum[1].}
\begin{document}
\thispagestyle{empty}
\maketitle
\section{Introduction}
\lipsum[1-3]
\end{document}
