How to hide tags on a simple wordpress blog?

  • Unknown's avatar

    I’d like to hide my posts so they don’t show on the main blog feed (only when you click to go into the article). Love to know if this is possible? I’m a newbie at this. :) Thanks for the help!

    You can set your feed to show only excerpts, but if you hide them from the feed, then there is nothing for anyone to click on.

    To set your feed to show excerpts only go to settings > reading in your dashboard. It can take a little while for the feed to change and reflect the new setting, especially with feed reader services such as Google Reader and the like. Many times they do not update anything until a new post is published.

    I do apologise! I would like to hide my TAGS so they don’t show on the main blog feed. I find that they clutter the main page.

    Very sorry for the typing error. I think my brain was a bit full of all this tech reading. (Or cotton wool).

    Love to know if there’s a way to have tags but hide them?

    The by feed, you are meaning the front page of your website, not your actual “FEED”.

    That would require editing of the CSS which requires the Custom Design Upgrade. The following would be the code if you wish to try it out and use the CSS preview function at appearance > custom design > CSS. Delete all the informational text in that window and paste in the following.

    .tag-links {
    display: none;
    }

    Thank you so much SP!

    Yes I do mean the front page of the website.

    Great to know! Unfortunately I am not at the stage of buying the upgrade yet, but when I am I shall definitely be using this advice.

    Appreciate the time and have a great day ahead! :)

    You are very welcome and you too have a great day. Mine is winding down here in the middle of the Pacific.
