Hiding Author on Blog Posts

Greetings!

For the byline removal, that is just for the author (and link) in the post’s meta info; where the post date is, comments link, etc. I’m assuming you are wanting the author bio below the full post removed? Normally if your WordPress is set up for just one author, this should not show; This feature is also in the pro version of Fifty50 (among several others) from the Customizer. However, if this version is enough for you, feature-wise, you can add this code to the Additional CSS tab in the customizer:

.entry-meta .byline,
.author-info { display: none; }

The entry-meta .byline will remove that author link just below the post title and the .author-info part will hide the full author bio from the full post view.

For the fonts, how were you trying to change those?

For the button(s), were you trying to change them for all buttons, or just an email subscribe button? Also, are you using a newsletter signup plugin?

You beauty, thank you! That’s totally fixed the author bio question!

Fonts – I went into Customise>Typography and changed the Default and Theme Typographies font families in all of the available options. I have the Easy Google Fonts plugin.

Buttons – I’d like to change the Jetpack Blog Subscriptions widget button, although knowing how to change other buttons would also be handy (but not necessary).

Thanks so much for getting back to me so quickly, it’s really appreciated!

Good to hear the bio info worked.

For the fonts, I’m not too familiar with the Google Fonts plugin, but it sounds like you want to change the font for most if not everything. But, once you choose the font that you want to use, the theme’s default font is applied to the body tag. For example:

body {
  font-family: var(--fifty50-font-primary);
}

I won’t bore you with the nerdy stuff about what var(–fifty50-font-primary) is, but you can apply the font you choose to the body tag. We will use the font Arial as an example like this:

body {
  font-family: Arial;
}

Adding that to the Additional CSS tab in the customizer should work, where this one will change the font for everything (or should). The only exception are page titles, headings, etc. This would be done with:

h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6 {
  font-family: Arial;
}

Buttons: For Jetpack, I’m not sure what classes they use to apply their style to the buttons they use. So, this is something I’m not able to help too much on my end as that is a plugin I don’t use. You might want to post to their plugin support.

Buttons for Fifty50 will depend on if you are using the classic or block editor. You can find the “button” styling in the theme’s style.css file around line 1974. It starts off with…

/* Buttons */
.button,
button,
input[type=button],
input[type=reset],
input[type=submit] {
  background-color: var(--fifty50-colour-tertiary);
  border: 1px solid transparent;
  border-radius: 0.563rem;

Hopefully some of this helps.

NOTE: I just uploaded an update to version 1.0.5, but need to make a slight correction to that one. Watch for a new update later today for version 1.0.6.

This is all brilliant, thank you! I worked out how to do the subscribe button with various bits of code (I love the Fifty50 buttons so no change there needed!) and I found another fonts plugin that did for the bits the h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6 { font-family: Arial; } didn’t quite reach. Thanks again for all your help – it’s a lovely theme!

OOO! This sounds like this is worth a 5-star review! ??

Anyway, I’m glad things worked out for you and you are very welcome as well. Thanks for the theme comment too!

Best Regards,
Andre

Give me a mo to settle in with the theme then ask me again!

Thanks again, Andre for all your help! Here’s a link to the site: https://liza-frank.com – more tidging to do as I go through all the fonts, and a big reveal to update it with on the solstice…
