Hi,

Here is the site: http://b50.e16.myftpupload.com/

I am using Ethos (the latest update) and the built-in post slider that came with the theme.

I am allocating multiple categories to posts, but I don’t want them all to show as the meta data overlay on my Post Slider. Currently it is set to:

Category, Date of Update
Post Title

Where do I go to either:

1. Remove the Category and date fields completely
2. Specify 1 Category for the post or
3. specify custom fields that need to go into that overlay?

Hope you can help, just don’t know where to get started,

Best

Leonie

Hi there,

#1 Please add this code in Customize -> Custom -> CSS:

.cover span.featured-meta {
display: none;
}

#2 Regretfully this isn’t a feature offered by X. It could be possible with custom development, but this would be outside the scope of support we can offer. You may wish to consult a developer, or a service like WerkPress or Elto to assist you with this. X is quite extensible with child themes, so there are plenty of possibilities. Thanks for understanding.

#3 Please give us more information about this custom field so we can help you if it’s possible.

Hope it helps.

Hi,

Thanks this is great,

#1 I have added the css in customizer, but the meta data is still showing. Please note that I do still want to have the title of the post appear, just not the date and categories.
#2 For future investment & development, thanks
#3 I have custom fields for : Date of Essay (which is not related to the creation date of the post) and Photographer (who is not the author of the post) :
Photographer photographer Text
Date Created date_created Text

Best,

Leonie

Hey Leonie,

Please use this code instead via Appearance > Customize > Custom > CSS:

.x-post-slider-entry .featured-meta {
display: none !important;
}

Adding custom field’s text in post slider’s overlay might not be possible without custom development which is outside the scope of our support as this is not related to an issue with the theme and instead has to do with your customization of it. As such, you will need to investigate this particular issue on your own or look to a service such as WerkPress or Elto for assistance should you not feel comfortable making these changes yourself. If you have any further questions about the theme, we are more than happy to provide you with assistance on these inquiries.

Thank you for your understanding.

Hi,

Thanks for this, will follow up separately to customise post categories display.

However, the custom css on .x-post-slider-entry, is still not updating to reflect this added code.

Could you have one last look?

Best,

Leonie

Hi Leonie,

The code works on my end. Where are you putting it in? Also do you have caching turned on? It would be best to switch it off during development as it may cause changes not to show up.

Would you mind providing us with login credentials so we can take a closer look? To do this, you can make a post with the following info:

– Link to your site
– WordPress Admin username / password
– FTP credentials

Hi there,

Upon checking, it seems there’s a unclosed comment in your website (see: http://prntscr.com/5ch1wx) that’s the reason of this code not to work. To fix it, please add following code instead:

*/

.x-post-slider-entry .featured-meta {
  display: none !important;
}

Hope this helps. 🙂

Thank you.

Thanks! I wanted to remove the meta data from the slider too, and your first custom css worked for me!
