Help me strip out *everything* but the content.

  • I’m helping my step-uncle & aunt list the items their home decor store has online. I’m using WordPress as a CMS, with a basic site structure:

    Front Page(static)
    |-Categories Page(static)
    ||-Pottery Category(WordPress, all entries that they’ve published in the “Pottery Category”).

    WordPress is great for this since they can create an entry for each item, complete with photos, choose the category they want it in, and publish it. But, all that needs to be displayed is the content of the entry, with none of the other blog frills.

    So, how can I make it so that when I link to a category from the static categories page, a visitor sees nothing but the entries’ content, without the date, without “Comments Off”, without “Posted in (category name)”, etc.?

    Edit the category.php file in the theme to remove that extra stuff.

    If there is no category.php file, copy the index.php file in the theme to category.php, and then edit it.

    JayNeely,

    Are you using a particular theme already? Which one?

    Otto’s right, you basically want to strip some existing tags out of the theme you’re using. If you can point to a specific theme we can point out particular lines you can remove.

    I’ve done something similar a few times and while the basic idea is the same some specifics may differ between themes and based on what exactly you want to remove.
