Hi im trying to change the order of the p-meta. Ive used css to remove some and am not liking the outcome. I feel like this would be so much easier if I could just access the file this is coming from and move the coding around. Could you tell me what file to get this from? Im using ethos i have . child theme set up.
Hi There @fatcatgraphics
Thanks for writing in! Could you please try adding the following PHP code into your child theme’s functions.php file and see if that helps.
// Re-order Meta
function x_ethos_entry_meta() {
//
// Author.
//
$author = sprintf( ' %1$s %2$s</span>',
__( 'by', '__x__' ),
get_the_author()
);
//
// Date.
//
$date = sprintf( ' | <span><time class="entry-date" datetime="%1$s">%2$s</time></span>',
esc_attr( get_the_date( 'c' ) ),
esc_html( get_the_date() )
);
//
// 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: “%s”", '__x__' ), $category->name ) )
. '"> '
. $category->name
. '</a>'
. $separator;
}
$categories_list = sprintf( '<span>%1$s %2$s',
__( 'In', '__x__' ),
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: “%s”", '__x__' ), $category->name ) )
. '"> '
. $category->name
. '</a>'
. $separator;
}
$categories_list = sprintf( '<span>%1$s %2$s',
__( 'In', '__x__' ),
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() );
$text = ( 0 == $number ) ? __( ' | Leave a Comment', '__x__' ) : sprintf( _n( '%s Comment', '%s Comments', $number, '__x__' ), $number );
$comments = sprintf( '<span><a href="%1$s" title="%2$s" class="meta-comments">%3$s</a></span>',
esc_url( $link ),
esc_attr( sprintf( __( ' | Leave a comment on: “%s”', '__x__' ), $title ) ),
$text
);
} else {
$comments = '';
}
//
// Output.
//
if ( x_does_not_need_entry_meta() ) {
return;
} else {
printf( '<p class="p-meta">%1$s%2$s%3$s%4$s</p>',
$author,
$date,
$categories_list,
$comments
);
}
}

Thanks!
Thank you! That did work, however it removes my previous function to make the Author link to the author profile…
(attached code below)
How can I make both work together?

Hi @fatcatgraphics,
You’ll have to combine the two, may I know the previous code where the author link is implemented?
Thanks!
I was trying to figure it out on my own but it wasnt working…
here are both codes:

Hi @fatcatgraphics,
This should be the combined code
function x_ethos_entry_meta() {

$author = ' by <a href="'. get_author_posts_url(get_the_author_meta( 'ID' )) . '">' . get_the_author() . '</a></span>';

$categories_list,
$comments

}
}
Then you can just remove the two codes from above.
Thanks!
Thanks, That worked good enough. It does remove the ‘featured in’ and the ‘comments’ but thats ok i dont think i want those… however it now looks like this
by FIN | May 26, 2019 /
and I just want to remove that last ‘/’
Hi @fatcatgraphics,
In that case, could you try this one replacing the above code.
function x_ethos_entry_meta() {
//
// Author.
//
$author = ' by <a href="'. get_author_posts_url(get_the_author_meta( 'ID' )) . '">' . get_the_author() . '</a></span>';
//
// Date.
//
$date = sprintf( ' | <span><time class="entry-date" datetime="%1$s">%2$s</time></span>',
esc_attr( get_the_date( 'c' ) ),
esc_html( get_the_date() )
);
//
// 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: “%s”", '__x__' ), $category->name ) )
. '"> '
. $category->name
. '</a>'
. $separator;
}
$categories_list = sprintf( '<span>%1$s %2$s',
__( 'In', '__x__' ),
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: “%s”", '__x__' ), $category->name ) )
. '"> '
. $category->name
. '</a>'
. $separator;
}
$categories_list = sprintf( '<span>%1$s %2$s',
__( 'In', '__x__' ),
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() );
$text = ( 0 == $number ) ? __( ' | Leave a Comment', '__x__' ) : sprintf( _n( '%s Comment', '%s Comments', $number, '__x__' ), $number );
$comments = sprintf( '<span><a href="%1$s" title="%2$s" class="meta-comments">%3$s</a></span>',
esc_url( $link ),
esc_attr( sprintf( __( ' | Leave a comment on: “%s”', '__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>',
$author,
$date
);
}
}
This should remove other meta instead of just hiding them through CSS which should also remove the last separator.
Thanks!
It still has that “/” after it. How can I remove this?
BY FIN | MAY 3, 2019 /
Nevermind, its removed. Thanks for the help
Glad we could help.
Cheers!
