Hello,

I have generally found this theme very user-friendly but nowhere online have I managed to find how to change the CSS for the following:

1. Timestamp for posts: the default settings for the timestamp show the date the post was published, who posted it, the category/categories and the number of comments. I want it to only show the date. Also, because the blog is in Arabic, I would like to remove the part in English that says “Posted on” so it looks neater. Is this possible? If not, instructions on how to remove this timestamp altogether would also be useful.

2. Timestamp in categories: for the webpages that filter posts by category (e.g. http://taharruri.net/category/%D8%A3%D9%86%D8%B4%D8%B7%D8%A9/) the timestamp for the list of posts shows the date and number of comments. Can I make it only show the date? If not, instructions on how to remove it altogether would also be useful.

3. Ticker. The default design for the ticker widget shows the date, title and category for each post. Is it possible to have it come up as only the title?

Many thanks!

The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Try this to show just the date on your single posts:
```
body.single .post .post-meta {
  visibility:hidden;
}

body.single .post .post-meta .updated {
  visibility:visible;
  position:absolute;
  right:20px;
}
```
To get rid of the whole section use:
```
body.single .post .post-meta {
  display:none;
}
```
For your archive pages you can show only the date with:
```
body.category .post .meta {
  visibility:hidden;
}

body.category .post .meta a {
  visibility:visible;
}
```
and to remove it all:
```
body.category .post .meta {
  display:none;
}
```
For the last questions can you point out which section is the ticker widget? I can’t read Arabic so it’s quite hard to figure out which bit is which!

Hello,

Thanks so much, that was so much easier than I thought it would be! :)

I just enabled the ticker widget, it is the red and white one just under the main menu. Basically, the text I would like to keep in the ticker is just the piece of text to the very left (which would be the beginning of the line in English but Arabic is a right-to-left language so it is actually the end).

So to sum up, I would like to delete all the rest of the text in the ticker (date and category) and just leave the title (left-most text).

Sorry this is so confusing! I hope my description is clear.

@taharruri, give the following a try to hide the date and category from the ticker in MH Magazine.
```
span.ticker-item-meta {
    display: none;
}
```
