Hello Kris,

Hello,

Please comment out this code in \wp-content\themes\legenda\framework\widgets.php file on line 368
<?php _e('by', ETHEME_DOMAIN) ?> <strong><?php the_author(); ?></strong><br>
and use this code in custom.css file
```
.blog-post .post-info {
    display: none;
}
```
Here is a video tutorial how to create custom.css: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qok2zRedRMY&feature=youtu.be.

Hello Stan,

I went ahead and commented out the php that you said and also added the css and it didn’t seem to work. Now it shows up like this http://s17.postimg.org/we55zaebj/author.png

Jack,

Thanks! I did it. but is there anyway to add padding to the date so that it sits a little closer to the blog title?
