Hi there,

I would like to remove the ‘leave a comment’ from my meta, but am unsure how?

You gave me a function a while back that changed display slightly. That code is below. I just want: date . author

// =============================================================================
// OVERWRITE THEME POST PAGE DATE STRUCTURE
// -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
// Allows me to change date format to what I like.
// =============================================================================

function x_renew_entry_meta() {

  $author = sprintf( '<span>%s</span>',
    get_the_author()
  );

  $date = sprintf( '<span><time class="entry-date" datetime="%1$s">%2$s</time></span>',
    esc_attr( get_the_date( 'c' ) ),
    esc_html( get_the_date( 'M j, Y' ) )
  );

  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="'

Hi there,

Please update your code to :

Perfect. Thank you.

Is there a way to just have date only displayed on the masonry blog index page?

[Christopher]

Hi there,

Please add following code in Customize -> Custom -> CSS :

.blog .p-meta span:nth-child(2) {
    display: none;
}
.blog .p-meta>span:after {
    content: "";
}

Hope that helps.
