Delete “About” and “Meta?”
-
I’m using the Fadtastic theme and hope someone can help me. Is there a way to delete “About” and “Meta” in the right column?
Many thanks-

What you are now seeing in the sidebar is a theme-generate sample set of widget. Once you add a widget, the others will all disappear. Simply go to appearance > widgets and drag the widgets you actually want into the sidebars and they will replace what is there.

Fadtastic is an odd theme. It appears to have 2 useable sidebars. But in fact it has one sidebar and one bottom bar that a user can add widgets to.
The second sidebar is set in the theme and can not be modified. You get: About (which is actually your tagline), RSS, and Meta. The only thing you can edit in that sidebar is your tagline.

It’s only because I was considering changing themes, and I tried it only yesterday.
≥^,^≤I’m wondering if it is an oversight now that all themes are widget aware. It’s odd to have a sidebar one can’t personalize…

I agree, it would be nice if all three areas were customizable. It would likely take some hacking in the theme files and possibly a little hacking of the CSS.
I’m always a fan of flexibility.

One more question? I tried to edit “about” tagline, but I couldn’t figure out how to do it. Any advice?

I guess that wasn’t my last question!
I added tags to my posts and now they’re showing up under the title. Is there a way to hide date, category and tags so they’re there, but the reader doesn’t have to see them?

That is the way the theme is designed. Some themes display them on the bottom of posts.
The worst part is that with Fadtastic, you see only title links to your recent posts on the front page and not excerpts or summaries or whole articles. But with the titles are the tags and categories you have assigned.
These all link to the global tag page, and off your site.
