how to remove “written by…” from a post

  • I would like the front section post to just be text. But its not a widget, it is a post section (theme corporate v2)
    I would like to modify the front page in parts but it seems that the front page is not widgets, so how can I go to the front page and keep the links at the top and the genral 2 column stucture. but only insert text boxes and widgets?
    TIA if you want to see the link let me know.

    thanks!!!

  • expertsig,

    Visit Appearance > Editor and modify the code in the Index.php file (Main Index Template) assuming that your front page is the index.php.

    Thanks doc4!
    So just remove these lines and add others?

    <?php get_header(); ?>
    <?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . ‘/main_photo.php’); ?>
    <?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . ‘/my_latest.php’); ?>
    <?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . ‘/my_recent.php’); ?>
    <?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . ‘/bottombar.php’); ?>
    <?php get_footer(); ?>

    expertsig,

    Well, you would want to maintain the get_header and get_footer, they do what they say literally getting the header and footer since the index.php is only the body.

    Thanks!
    If you would go look, you can see I just removed:
    <?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . ‘/my_recent.php’); ?>
    And it worked great. but what about the “written by and the fact that the text is trunkated, and there is a more button. Where is the text widget php name that I could pop in there? Is that possible? I do not see it. I would like to just pop a tect in there rather that cutting out parts of the post functionality. Do my ramble make sense??
    Thanks again! Very effective.

    Hi,

    Open index.php file and there will be the code in loop for “written By” remove it in order to resolve your problem.

    Thanks,

    this is all that is in my index.php

    <?php get_header(); ?>
    <?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . ‘/main_photo.php’); ?>
    <?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . ‘/my_latest.php’); ?>
    <?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . ‘/bottombar.php’); ?>
    <?php get_footer(); ?>

    It is is the page.php
    Remove it or comment it
