  Having you DOB listed online is real bad for identity theft

  Different Themes handle the “by” thing differently and there might be a different Theme that does not have the “by” or you could change the displayed name. Or it could be hidden with the CSS upgrade – both of those are above my pay-grade but others should pitch in.

  @Gareth
  The blog (site)Tiile can be changed here Settings > General and it’s also where you can change the “tagline” .
  You can also edit your About page and remove the “Gareth Currens” from the title of that static page so it only has the title “About”.

  Hope this helps.
