  Hi,

  I was wondering if someone might be able to explain to me if I would be able/how to remove entry dates to posts with the opti theme on a premium package?

  Thanks,

  Ryan

  Give this a try and let me know if it does the trick. It should remove the word “on” in addition to the date itself.

  .postmetadata em, .postmetadata .entry-date {
   display: none;
  }

  Thanks for getting back to me. I deleted the welcome message and inserted the code and saved it, I believe, under the appropriate CSS space. Mine looked like this when I was done:

  1 .p`ostmetadata em,
  .postmetadata .entry-date {
  2 display: none;
  3. }`

  Will I know if this has worked only once I start to post, or is there some other way to verify beforehand?

  Thank you!

  There is a stray character in the CSS – sorry about that!

  Please go back into your Customizer and change this:

  .postmetadata em, .postmetadata .entry-date {
  display: none;
  }`

  to this:

  .postmetadata em, .postmetadata .entry-date {
  	display: none;
  }

  You will see the change when previewing your post.

  Sorry, the code formatting keeps getting mangled. Just remove any stray ` characters in your CSS – those shouldn’t be there. Let me know how it goes.
