    Hello, I would like to remove the “date” and “author” information from appearing on pages on my site (just pages, not posts). I’ve found a couple of support threads about the topic relating to other themes, but I can’t seem to apply their advice to this particular theme / my site? Any advice?

    My site is https://www.busygirlshopping.com.

    Thank you!

  • You can try this code in Custom CSS option if theme has this feature, if it doesn’t have this feature go ahead and enable Custom CSS module in your Jetpack plugin.

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

    Off topic, the head shot image in the sidebar is too big in file size (0.5MB). If you still have the original, you can save it in jpg and use CSS to make it round.

    Hi there!

    I took a look at your site and was able to remove the date/author info on pages using this snippet of code:

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

    You can paste this code in your child theme’s style.css or in a custom css plugin such as Simple Custom CSS.

    I hope that helps!

    Thanks so much for the quick replies! I tried pasting both code suggestions in the “CSS Stylesheet Editor” — first of all, that’s the right spot, correct? In both cases, it removed the entire header on both posts and pages (at least when I clicked “preview”)? Any suggestions?

    And just to doublecheck – I don’t mind the information appearing on the posts feed on my homepage – I just don’t want it appearing on my static pages (e.g. “Shop My Picks”).

    And thanks for the tip on the headshot! I was wondering about that.

    The right spot to put the code is via Jetpack Custom CSS feature under Appearance → Edit CSS (because you already have Jetpack installed.)

    That CSS will never remove the entire header on both posts and pages, it will do exactly what asked for. Make sure you use the code in a copy & paste fashion.

    I see now … in “Preview” it was cutting everything off, but once I hit “Save Stylesheet” it worked correctly. Thanks again for everything! Take care!
