Hi,

I would like to remove the dates, categories, ‘leave a reply’ and logos from my posts so the only things on my site are the pictures and videos. I have removed some things, but cannot figure out how to do them all . . .

Thanks, James

To remove ‘Leave a Reply,’ disable commenting when editing that post or page:

https://en.support.wordpress.com/enable-and-disable-comments-for-published-posts-and-pages/

You can then remove the ‘comments are closed’ message with this CSS:
```
.nocomments{
	display: none;
}
```
This CSS removes the dates:
```
.post-meta{
	display: none;
}
```
Everything else it seems that you have it covered, but let me know if there’s something I missed and please provide a link to an example post or page.

Hi, thanks for that.

I still have the date on the posts though.

Also, how do I add in the CSS code?

Cheers, James

Sorry, didn’t see you’d given the code to remove date too.

But I just don’t know how to enter it . . .

Thanks again, James

Sorry, one more thing, my menu fonts are different from the main titles (minion pro) so how do I change this and can I increase both of their size?

Hi James,

You can add in CSS through your Customizer:

Sorry, one more thing, my menu fonts are different from the main titles (minion pro) so how do I change this and can I increase both of their size?

You can change the menu to Minion Pro with this CSS:
```
#access .menu{
	font-family: minion-pro;
}
```
To change the font sizes, best to use the size tool built into the Font portion of the customizer to get it as close as possible:

https://en.support.wordpress.com/custom-design/custom-fonts/#adjusting-font-size-and-style

But those size settings affect multiple portions of the site. Once you get those as close as possible you can add the font-size css property to a selector. For example, your menu:
```
#access .menu{
	font-family: minion-pro;
	font-size: 120%;
}
```

Hi Alex,

thanks for all this. With the codes to remove the dates etc. I just pasted them into the css box and they worked, but did the same with this font code and it hasn’t changed anything . . . how should I do it?

Cheers, James

Just checked out your Customizer and it looks like you’re missing a curly brace from your previous code:

Once you a } to the end, then paste this CSS code it works:
