Removing date stamp/author from Featured post

    I installed WordPress and Canonical about a month ago and have been poking around with it ever since. I’ve figured stuff out and ended up very pleased with myself.

    I have encountered a problem I haven’t been able to fix. I want to remove the date/author stamp and category from the featured post on the custom home page. I found a piece of code to add in a different support forum, but that hasn’t worked for me.

    Essentially, I want Featured post (previously the 404 Error) on the homepage to just look like static content to a casual viewer. How can I do this?

    The easiest solution would be a bit of CSS.

    .front-page .post-meta {
display: none;
}

    You can add this CSS to the styles section in the theme options.

    Would you like to see my head bashing against the desk?

    I had what I thought was the exact same piece of code. I swear it was. Exact. Same. Code. Already in that spot. And it didn’t work, so I asked my question here.

    Dutifully, I copied and pasted your code (which I maintain was the exact same piece of code!!!) into the same spot. It is fixed.

    Voodoo magic, I’m pretty sure.

    Thank you for your very swift reply.
