Remove Date

  • Unknown's avatar

    Hello,
    I need to remove the date from my pages on “Full Frame” theme. I purchased the CSS upgrade. Not sure how I’m to go about it as it’s my first time using it.
    Thanks.

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

    Hey!

    In order to change how an element appears on your page, you need to target it with a CSS selector. A selector is usually an id or class that is applied to the element on its HTML tag. For example, in your page, if you take a look at your page’s source code, you’ll see that the HTML element that contains the date has the “entry-date” class as an attribute (check “class=” in the <time> tag).

    To find selectors for your elements, you can right click on the element you want to style and select the “Inspect Element” option. This will show a panel with the HTML code for the element you clicked, along with the CSS rules applied to it on the right. See https://dailypost.wordpress.com/2013/07/25/css-selectors/ for more information on how to find CSS selectors.

    That being said, for hiding the date on your posts, you can add the following CSS code to the Appearance → Custom Design → CSS panel:

    .entry-date {
        display: none;
    }

    Thank you. It works fine. I tried to paste a similar CSS code earlier but it didn’t work. That’s when I reached out on this forum.
    Now my text if misaligned by a letter or two, but I’ll try to figure it out.
    Thank you!

    You mean a misalignment between the content and the line that separates it from the title? If so, this bit might help:

    .entry-content p {
        text-align: justify;
    }

    Thanks again! I’ve explored using different fonts and found one I like.This font uses “less space” so the text fits without breaking to the next line.
    I’m now trying to set my posts in a specific order…..any advice on how to do that? Thanks so much.
    I think I will keep this website/blog after all. I was a bit worried that I couldn’t improve it enough after paying for the upgrade. Starting to take shape!

    Posts on the main posts page will show in reverse chronological order (newest at top). You can create your posts in a specific order, or you can change the dates on them to put them in a specific order. If you choose to change the dates, I would suggest doing that before you publish them since the URLs contain the date of publication and if they search engines pick them up, it will cause file not found errors when you change the date.

    You may also want to read through this support page, which offers another option: http://en.support.wordpress.com/write-a-book/

    Thanks so much! I have sorted everything so far with dates – I removed them. I’m happy with the site now.
    Thanks!
