I turned off the byline in theme options, but it removed the date also so I’ve been trying to remove what I thought was the code for the time, author and comment from theme-functions.php

<?php the_time(get_option(‘time_format’)); ?>
<?php _e(‘by’, ETHEME_DOMAIN); ?> <?php the_author_posts_link(); ?>
<?php // Display Comments

That didn’t work as I’m now thinking may be b/c it was only for the post slider? and maybe b/c I’m using the child them for woopress?

I want to keep the date, but remove the time, author and comment count from both the blog page/archive page and single post page. I just can’t seem to figure it out on my own what to remove or what to place into the child theme functions.php file.

I managed to remove the author from the recent posts widget ok.

Appreciate you help.

Hello,

In this case you should edit \wp-content\themes\woopress\content.php file and comment out the following code on line 79-89

<?php _e('at', ETHEME_DOMAIN) ?> <?php the_time(get_option('time_format')); ?> <?php _e('by', ETHEME_DOMAIN);?> <span class="vcard"> <span class="fn"><?php the_author_posts_link(); ?></span></span> <?php // Display Comments if(comments_open() && !post_password_required()) { echo ' / '; comments_popup_link('0', '1 Comment', '% Comments', 'post-comments-count'); } ?>

and the same thing you should do in \wp-content\themes\woopress\single.php file on line 93-103

Please copy these files into woopress-child folder and make changes there.

Regards,
Robert Hall
