  @jemimahetherington, I see that on at least some of your posts, you are not including post titles. On those, the following will hide the date on single post pages, but will leave a narrow grey band at the top of the featured images.

  .single .entry-meta {
      display: none;
  }

  To get rid of that, we would have to have to use the following, but this will have the effect of hiding the post titles on those posts where you have included a title.

  .single .entry-header {
      display: none;
  }

  Search engines like to see titles on posts. If they don’t, your site may not show up as high in search results as it would with titles. The titles can be hidden with CSS, if you do not want the titles to appear on the posts, but the titles would still be there in the HTML for the search engines to find.

  If you want the titles to not show on posts in certain categories, we specifically target and hide the titles on the posts in those categories by creating the right CSS selectors.

  Also, if you are wanting to hide the dates on all posts, we can do that with the following CSS.

  .entry-meta {
      display: none;
  }

  hi, I am having the same problem, I can’t remove the posting date.
  And there’s also another issue, on the projects page there is a header that says “archive.projects” that i would also like to remove.

  thanks

  Hi @studionau, to add custom CSS, you would need either the WordPress.com Premium Plan or WordPress.com Business plan upgrade, which includes Custom Design.

  You can try out and preview custom CSS before you buy as explained here. Here would be the CSS you would need.

  .post-type-archive .page-header {
      display: none;
  }
  .entry-meta {
      display: none;
  }
