  Hi there,

  The Blissful Blog theme you’re using includes the “Posted on” date on all blog posts, as part of the theme’s design. To customize the theme’s design further, you can use custom CSS as part of the Custom Design upgrade.

  However, there is a way to remove this from your site’s front page without the custom design upgrade. If you want to display static information on your site’s front page (instead of showing one or more blog posts there) you can set that up instead. While blog posts show the date they were posted, pages on your site don’t.

  To do that, start by copying the text from the post on your site’s front page. Then, go to Pages > Add New in your dashboard to create a new page. Paste in the text you want to show on your front page, and publish the page.

  Then, go to Settings > Reading in your dashboard. Next to “Front page displays” you can select “A static page.” In the drop down menu next to “Front page:” choose the page you just published. Click the Save Changes button when you’re done.

  We have more information about setting up a static front page here: Front Page

  Please let me know if you have any questions about that!
