Is there a way to add custom code to modify the post metadata so that it does not show the author’s name? I don’t have a child theme set up.

Hi there,

Upon checking, it seems that you have already disabled post meta. Were you able to resolve this issue? If not please provide us with a screenshot and a link to a sample page, so that we can check.

Thanks!

Hi,
I have disabled the post metadata, but I was asking if there is a way to enable certain fields in the metadata and not others. I would like all of the fields to show EXCEPT the author’s name.

Hello Lynda,

Thank our for the clarifications! Regretfully there aren’t any setting that you can just turn on/off any of the post meta. There are two ways to remove the author’s name from the post meta. One requires a child theme and the other is by using custom css. And in your case, since you haven’t setup a child theme, we’ll just use the custom css. Please add the following css code in the customizer, Appearance > Customize > Custom > CSS

.site .p-meta>span:first-child,
.site .p-meta>span:nth-child(1){
    display: none;
}

Please let us know if this works out for you.

Thanks, that worked!
