  How do I get rid of the “date my post was published” so that readers cannot see this and it doesnt appear on the post? Thanks

  Hi there,

  That publish date is part of the design of the Opti theme you’re using — the theme doesn’t have a built-in way to remove that. You can further customize your theme using our Custom Design features, part of the WordPress.com Premium Plan.

  Please let me know if you have any questions about that. :)

  Hi there.

  I can see that, after your last reply, you were able to hide the date on your posts using the following custom CSS:

  .entry-date {
  	display: none;
  }
  
  .postmetadata {
  	visibility: hidden;
  }
  
  .breadcrumbs, .byline, .commentcount {
  	visibility: visible;
  }

  Awesome! Looking over your site, the only over instance of a date that I can find for your posts is in your comments. If you’d like, this can also be hidden using the following snippet:

  .comment-date {
    display: none;
  }
