Welcome. There is currently no option to unhide. But you could try adding the following code in file custom.js (create inside folder logseq if missing):

const preblocks = document.getElementsByClassName("pre-block");
const preblocksObserver = new MutationObserver(function onMutated(){
    Array.prototype.forEach.call(preblocks, (div)=>{
        const divProps = div.querySelector(".block-properties")
        if (!divProps || divProps.dataset.observed) return

        const blockId = div.getAttribute("blockid")
        const properties = logseq.api.get_block(blockId).properties
        const title = properties && properties.title
        if (!title) return

        const divTitle = document.createElement("div")
        divTitle.innerHTML = '<span class="page-property-key">title:</span> ' + title
        divProps.prepend(divTitle)
        divProps.dataset.observed = true
    })
});
preblocksObserver.observe(document.getElementById("app-container"), {
    attributes: true,
    subtree: true,
    attributeFilter: ["class"]
});

Thanks, that solved it.
Is there a reason for this behavior?

Existing behaviors try to cover the typical workflows, for the sake of new users. In a typical workflow, property title:: is hidden. The reason doesn’t really matter. Users should have the option to override whatever default behavior for their own workflow needs. Currently, it is possible to hide properties through the :block-hidden-properties option in file config.edn . There should be a similar :block-shown-properties for the inverse. The coming database version provides a user interface for individual properties.

Hello,

That partially solved my issue. I wanted to use the title property for something else, like title of academic articles or books. But, using it, when I re-index Logseq, it changes the note title to the value in the property.
I guess, this property should be kept unused by logseq. And the note title property should use a different property name (like ls-note-title)

Thanks again for your help.
