How to remove date from post title header?

    Hi,

    I am setting up a small blog to list the projects I work on. I initially set up the About section as a page and the projects as posts. I would like to flip this and have About content appear first on the home page, which I can do using the Post feature. I can then use pages for Current and Past Projects. I need to do 2 things to make this work:

    1. Remove the Date that appears below the header/post title
    2. Remove the text “Just another wordpress blog” below the blog title

    I use the theme Simpla. Below is the code. Could someone please tell me what I need to delete?

    Thank you very much!!!

    Im not familiar with simpla but i dont think what you want will be solved by changing the CSS.

    the date will be somewhere in your .php page which handles the posts. in wordpress 3.0 this is the loop.php page. I cant remember what it is in 2.x but im sure it wont take you long to find it.

    the “just another blog” is the site description. if its any sort of theme you should have the option to blank this out in the theme setup via your dashboard. If not, again yu will have to edit the php page using the editor. usually this is in the header.php page i think, but again depends on the theme.

    it will say something like <?php bloginfo( ‘description’ ); ?> , this is wp3.0 again, not sure if its the same in 2.x

    hope that helps alittle.

    @arikletzky:

    a) You don’t have to turn “About” into a post then remove the date: just set your front to display the About page instead of posts:
    http://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/front-page/

    b) You can’t remove “”Just another wordpress blog” without removing “Theme: Simpla by Phu” as well, and that’s not fair.

    Do you have the paid CSS upgrade, by the way?

    @Ted: You’re talking about self-hosted blogs while this is the wp.COM forum.
