  Hi,

  Unfortunately the test site I need help with needs to be private as we have a live site that’s being used.

  The site is using the Barnsbury theme, please see Barnsbury demo site: https://barnsburydemo.wordpress.com/

  Currently in my frontpage I’ve 6 testimonials. Longer testimonials show a “Continue Reading” link which take viewers to https://sincereopticstest.wordpress.com/testimonial/Customer-Name/

  The problem is that the WordPress user (Not the Customer Name) also shows. I need to hide that.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi @skinnyhobbit, in this case the testimonials are actually built using blocks, not the Testimonials post type. So if you’ll just edit that part of the page and remove the customer names, you should be good to go.

  Let us know if you need more help.

  Hi supernova,

  The testimonial posts are created using the Testimonial module, and displayed on the front page using the testimonial shortcode. I want the customer names (the title) in the testimonials, but not the WordPress Author name.

  The problem is when I go to https://sincereopticstest.wordpress.com/testimonial/Customer-Name/, I see the WordPress Author Bio.

  I will do what tenchoenyi suggests once I get the plan moved over :)

  I see. For that, you’ll need to use some CSS like the one @tenchoenyi provided.
