Date/Comments/Copyright hack not working

    From a few different posts, I gathered these three hacks.

    1. Hiding all dates, including sticky posts

    https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/emire-theme-hide-dates-on-posts


    body#home .entry-1 .entrytitle h3 {
    display:none;
    }

    2. Then TSP informed me that for Cutline following code will hide date+comment
    (I wasn’t clear whether that meant above code was not needed for Cutline):


    .posts h4 {
    display: none;
    }

    3. Adding your name/copyright to bottom of blog, from Raul

    https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/adding-copyright-to-blog

    Go to Design>Widgets>Add Text Widget

    <div CLASS="copyright">Copyright BLOG NAME © 2008/2009. All rights reserved.</div>

    Add CSS

    #footer.copyright{
    font-size:11px;
    color:black;
    bottom:-2px;
    }

    So when I add all three of the above codes to my CSS, the dates are hidden, but the comments do not shut off (except for the 3d post from top, which for some reason shows “Comments Off”, and the Copyright hack also didn’t work (it does show up on sidebar, but that happens just because of the text widget, not the code afterwards). TSP thought I may have to go into individual posts and shut off comments, but that didn’t make a difference (I did it for first 3 posts), you can still see the Comments link.

    If you are looking to get rid of “no comments” or “comments off” below the post, it will take out tags and categories as well since they are both controlled by .tagged .

    If you don’t mind losing categories and tags, then 

    .tagged {
display: none;
}

    will do it. The other code 

    .posts h4 {
display: none;
}

    was to get rid of the date for the posts and the “no comments” beneath the title.

    TSP, thanks, that worked perfectly. Now “Comments” links have disappeared.

    Hope Raul looks at this and can figure out why the Copyright code is not working.

    Side note: I see a little smiley on the right hand side of my blog header now. I did widen the blog content area from 770 px to 970 px, which moves the custom header image to the left, so don’t know if the smiley is side effect of that. Also any ideas how to make the custom header image also expand to the full 970 px.

    The smiley is always there, you just didn’t notice it before. It’s how WordPress keeps stats, and nothing to worry about.
