    Hi to the 8Theme,

    I would need some help with the following items, so can you please help me:
    1. How to remove the “by” and author’s name from the following pages:
    HOME page in the widget “Recent Posts”;
    Blog landing page under the title of the blog post preview;
    Post page itself under the title of the blog post.
    2. On the ‘Portfolio” page, how to remove the “Posted on … by Vincent Falardeau / category”.
    3. Can you please verify in the Editor style.css, if I have activated the “child theme” properly, because the System Status of WooCommerce says “Is Child Theme: No”, so I am wondering what it means.

    Thanks for your help,

    Vincent

    Hello,

    Add this code into custom.css file or style.css of the Child Theme.

    .portfolio-item .post-info, .blog-post.post-grid .post-information .post-info{
    display:none;
    }

    Your configuration of the child theme is good. This status does not affect to work with your theme.

    Regards,
    Robert Hall.

    Hi Robert,

    Thanks for your solution, it solved most of what I have asked for, but there is still the word “by” that shows up. As for example on both of these pages, right after the date (http://vincentvisions.com/next-trip/ ,and on http://vincentvisions.com/thanks/) this is what still on “Posted on August 4, 2014 at 10:40 pm by / uncategorized / 0”, I would like please to keep everything excepted the word “by”, that I would like to get rid of.

    Thanks again, best regards,

    Vincent

    Hello @Rin,

    You didn’t rename default.custom.css to custom.css.
    How to create custom.css you can watch in this tutorial (it’s for Legenda theme but the process is the same).
    Please add this code in custom.css file:

    .meta-post {
       display: none;
    }

    Thank you.
    Regards,
    Eva Kemp.

    Hi, I only want to delete the time-format.

    So it look like this:

    Posted on 10 january 2015 in category.

    I always deleted the hard codes in the php files but lost this after updates.. So thanks for the custom css.

    But I cannot find the php-files for the hard code in the element Post Grid or Raster. Where can I find these or how to delete the time-format?

    See screenshot for the place I mean in private content

    Many thanks!

    Hello @chndr,

    To remove time you need edit the file wp-content/themes/legenda/content-portfolio.php, find the code

    <div class="post-info">
               <span class="posted-on">
               <?php _e('Posted on', ETHEME_DOMAIN) ?>
               <?php the_time(get_option('date_format')); ?> 
               <?php _e('at', ETHEME_DOMAIN) ?> 
               <?php the_time(get_option('time_format')); ?>
    </span> 

    and remove or comment this line <?php the_time(get_option('time_format')); ?>

    Thank you.

    Hi, it is not my portfolio page. It is a page with a widget with my posts.. I delete the line in the content-portfolio.php but it didn’t work.
