Hi Alex,

Thanks for posting in. Please add the following CSS in Customizer’s > Custom CSS:

p.p-meta span:first-of-type {
    display: none;
}
p.p-meta span + span {
    color: red;  /*Change to your preferred color*/
    font-size: 20px; /* Change to your preferred font size*/
}

Please do share us your site URL if this doesn’t work.

To add custom field, please click Screen Option from the upper right part of the page. Check custom field. Then on the lower part the option for this will open. See attached screenshots.

Always,
X

Hi,

Thank you for providing your login credentials.

I went ahead and added this code in your child theme’s functions.php file to remove author and category.


  function x_integrity_entry_meta() {

    //
    // Author.
    //

    $author = sprintf( '<span><i class="x-icon-pencil" data-x-icon=""></i> %s</span>',
      get_the_author()
    );

    //
    // Date.
    //

    $date = sprintf( '<span><time class="entry-date" datetime="%1$s"><i class="x-icon-calendar" data-x-icon=""></i> %2$s</time></span>',
      esc_attr( get_the_date( 'c' ) ),
      esc_html( get_the_date() )
    );

    //
    // Categories.
    //

    if ( get_post_type() == 'x-portfolio' ) {
      if ( has_term( '', 'portfolio-category', NULL ) ) {
        $categories        = get_the_terms( get_the_ID(), 'portfolio-category' );
        $separator         = ', ';
        $categories_output = '';
        foreach ( $categories as $category ) {
          $categories_output .= '<a href="'
                              . get_term_link( $category->slug, 'portfolio-category' )
                              . '" title="'
                              . esc_attr( sprintf( __( "View all posts in: &ldquo;%s&rdquo;", '__x__' ), $category->name ) )
                              . '"><i class="x-icon-bookmark" data-x-icon=""></i> '
                              . $category->name
                              . '</a>'
                              . $separator;
        }

        $categories_list = sprintf( '<span>%s</span>',
          trim( $categories_output, $separator )
        );
      } else {
        $categories_list = '';
      }
    } else {
      $categories        = get_the_category();
      $separator         = ', ';
      $categories_output = '';
      foreach ( $categories as $category ) {
        $categories_output .= '<a href="'
                            . get_category_link( $category->term_id )
                            . '" title="'
                            . esc_attr( sprintf( __( "View all posts in: &ldquo;%s&rdquo;", '__x__' ), $category->name ) )

                            . $separator;
      }

      $categories_list = sprintf( '<span>%s</span>',
        trim( $categories_output, $separator )
      );
    }

    //
    // Comments link.
    //

    if ( comments_open() ) {

      $title  = apply_filters( 'x_entry_meta_comments_title', get_the_title() );
      $link   = apply_filters( 'x_entry_meta_comments_link', get_comments_link() );
      $number = apply_filters( 'x_entry_meta_comments_number', get_comments_number() );

      if ( $number == 0 ) {
        $text = __( 'Leave a Comment' , '__x__' );
      } else if ( $number == 1 ) {
        $text = $number . ' ' . __( 'Comment' , '__x__' );
      } else {
        $text = $number . ' ' . __( 'Comments' , '__x__' );
      }

      $comments = sprintf( '<span><a href="%1$s" title="%2$s" class="meta-comments"><i class="x-icon-comments" data-x-icon=""></i> %3$s</a></span>',
        esc_url( $link ),
        esc_attr( sprintf( __( 'Leave a comment on: &ldquo;%s&rdquo;', '__x__' ), $title ) ),
        $text
      );

    } else {

      $comments = '';

    }

    //
    // Output.
    //

    if ( x_does_not_need_entry_meta() ) {
      return;
    } else {
      printf( '<p class="p-meta">%1$s%2$s</p>',   
        $date,       
        $comments
      );
    }

  }

With regards to custom field, can you specify what kind of data you want to add.

Thanks

Hello,

thank you very much!
I want to add a custom field (created with Advanced Custom Fields) called “eintritt”.

Cheers,

Hi Alex,

To display it, you can use this code to display custom field.


<?php echo get_post_meta($post->ID, 'eintritt', true); ?>

eg.



  function x_integrity_entry_meta() {
   Global $post;
    //
    // Author.
    //

    $author = sprintf( '<span><i class="x-icon-pencil" data-x-icon=""></i> %s</span>',
      get_the_author()
    );

    //
    // Date.
    //

    $date = sprintf( '<span><time class="entry-date" datetime="%1$s"><i class="x-icon-calendar" data-x-icon=""></i> %2$s</time></span>',
      esc_attr( get_the_date( 'c' ) ),
      esc_html( get_the_date() )
    );

    //
    // Categories.
    //

    if ( get_post_type() == 'x-portfolio' ) {
      if ( has_term( '', 'portfolio-category', NULL ) ) {
        $categories        = get_the_terms( get_the_ID(), 'portfolio-category' );
        $separator         = ', ';
        $categories_output = '';
        foreach ( $categories as $category ) {
          $categories_output .= '<a href="'
                              . get_term_link( $category->slug, 'portfolio-category' )
                              . '" title="'
                              . esc_attr( sprintf( __( "View all posts in: &ldquo;%s&rdquo;", '__x__' ), $category->name ) )
                              . '"><i class="x-icon-bookmark" data-x-icon=""></i> '
                              . $category->name
                              . '</a>'
                              . $separator;
        }

        $categories_list = sprintf( '<span>%s</span>',
          trim( $categories_output, $separator )
        );
      } else {
        $categories_list = '';
      }
    } else {
      $categories        = get_the_category();
      $separator         = ', ';
      $categories_output = '';
      foreach ( $categories as $category ) {
        $categories_output .= '<a href="'
                            . get_category_link( $category->term_id )

        $date,       
        $comments,
        get_post_meta($post->ID, 'eintritt', true)
      );
    }

  }

Hope that helps.
