  In both preview and published mode, I am seeing a string of numbers under my post title.
  Example: http://suzannemcdermott.wordpress.com/2013/11/02/ive-moved/

  Numbers: 4 62013v 13 under “I’ve moved!”

  Please tell me how to eliminate numbers and keep them from appearing in future. Thanks!

  Hi Suzanne!

  That’s weird ! My guess is that it is coming from the theme you’re using, or maybe some plugin.

  Can you tell us what’s the theme you are using? Have you made any customizations?

  I’ve just noticed that you’re using the Simpla theme, and it seems to be retired. The old, unmaintained code might be causing the issue. I suggest that you try out a newer theme, there are some beautiful ones!

  Thanks for your quick response! Oh… You’re REALLY quick!!!

  Thanks, man! I’ll check out the newer themes. I am a total wordpress novice (though I’ve been blogging since 2005.) Am trying to take it one step at a time.

  Let’s see what simple theme I can start with. Really appreciate your help!

  Didn’t work. Tried “Origin” and images are not showing up but those weird numbers are.

  I’m going to try another theme but if you have any ideas, please share!

  Okay! I switched to Twenty Twelve? and the code is gone from under the title (good) but look, it still shows up. Now it’s where the date it. Ah… I haven’t gotten that far in choosing date format so maybe that’s where the problem lies. Maybe the dates were under the post titles in other themes.

  I’ll try working with that. But not tonight!

  Good! Yeah, it is definitely a date problem. If not your date format, maybe a bug on how WordPress.com is parsing the date.

  Are those illustrations yours? They are really nice!

  cheers!

  Thanks, Buddy. Yep, they’re from my new sketchbook. Am reviving my daily drawing practice. I teach drawing and watercolor so I’m walking the walk.
