    Hi everybody!

    I am using the ‘metelement’ theme. (www.excellohealth.com)

    On the top of the page, next to the page title, it displays the date the page was created, as well as the name of the author. How do I remove this, to leave only the title?

    Help on this will be greatly appreciated – I am busy searching the forums but do not find anything that deals with this.

  • edit the theme file(s) remove the bits that look like this:

    <?php the_date(); ?>

    or this:

    <?php the_time(); ?>

    Hi All,

    I have seen quite a bit of questions come in about how to remove the author and date from pages in a WordPress Blog, it really is quite simple here is how you do it.

    Just remove author details from the below mentioned code from page.php file of current active theme:

    <?php the_time(‘F jS, Y’) ?>Author: <?php the_author() ?>

    That’s it, now that was not that hard was it?

    you can find that code on line 13 in your page.php file The first line of code <?php the_time(‘F jS, Y’) ?> is your date and the second line Author: <?php the_author() ?> that is the Author part Delete both save your page.php re-upload it and you are done go to your page https://ccuconsulting.com and you will see that you no longer have date or Author showing up on your pages. Now it looks a bit more like a regular web site.

    Hope this helps some of you.

    Yes being sure to do it for each template file that makes calls to those functions…

    index.php
    archive.php
    category.php
    single.php
    page.php

    And so on…

    Dependant on your given theme…

    Whooami covered it already though…
