REMOVE a line?

  • Our WordPress forum is currently setup, using the “Whitehouse” theme. I’ve noticed that when WordPress was first installed and a theme in use, that the starting page to our WP board, has a line at the top. This line gives the following information: date, category, & poster. I’m guessing this would happen, whichever theme we used? It seems that after first installing WP, it sets up the opening page to a board, as a “post” instead of a “page”. (I only say/think this, because I don’t see this line on any other pages.) I didn’t see any other way to do this, other than to edit the first page the installation gave me. Surely – if I’d made a new page, instead of editing of deleting the ‘opening’ page the installation setup, we would have a blank page in our board?

    I have tried making a new page with the same information. However – all that does, is leave a second similarly named link in the top navigation bar.

    Can anyone please tell me:

    1. How can I remove this unwanted line, on our opening page?

    2. Or – how I can change this opening page’s status from being a “post” to a “page”?

    I would welcome some input on this. Our WP board, can be found at: https://www.tallclub.com

    No – it can vary from theme to theme. Plus, WordPress doesn’t use the term “boards”. I can only assume that you mean post listing, pages which are correctly referred to as “archives”.

    1. You’ll need to edit the relevant theme file in your theme.

    2. See Creating_a_Static_Front_Page.
