Hi,

I’m having the same issue, I’ve tried a number of codes but they fail to remove the date and ‘posted on’ without shifting the page breaks on my blog.

I’m using the sight theme.

Also, is there any way I can centre my header using css coding?

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

Center header… Try this

.site-title {text-align: center;}

On removing the date and posted on, did you try
entry-meta {display: none;}

This might be what you’re looking for:
```
.entry-meta {
	visibility: hidden;
}
.entry-meta .comments-link {
	float: left;
	visibility: visible;
}
```

To center the site title in the Sight theme, add this to your Appearance → Custom Design → CSS editor:
```
.site-header hgroup,
.site-header hgroup .site-title {
	width: 100%;
	margin-left: 0;
	text-align: center;
}
.site-header hgroup .site-description {
	display: none;
}
```

Amazing, thank you so much I’ve managed to change the site title but removing the date with the code above doesn’t remove the ‘leave the comment’.
Also one final question about the sight theme, how do I get the two grid/list icons beside the ‘latest entries’ line?

You didn’t mention wanting to remove the ‘leave a comment’ link earlier.

What is your end goal? Is it to remove the entire post meta line such as “Posted on October 7, 2012 • Leave a comment” and leave an empty space in its place without shifting any of the content below it up? Were you trying to make that change on the home page only or on individual posts as well?

I’m not sure what you mean. Is this the blog you are working on? http://beamuj.wordpress.com/

Sorrry, yes beamuj.wordpress.com is the blog i’m working on.

I would like to remove the entire meta line just on the home page, previous codes I used would shift the positioning of the page.

Here is a blog/site that has the features I’m looking for …

http://beautifullyfitlife.com/

You can see the grid/list symbol on the right end ‘the latest’ line there as well.

Hopefully that makes more sense.

Thanks

In that case, the solution houstonweaver posted earlier will work—except the dot at the front before “entry-meta” in the example above was missing, so if you tried it that might have been why it didn’t work before. Try this:
```
.entry-meta {
    display: none;
}
```

The Sight theme setup here at WordPress.com doesn’t have grid/list functions, and there is not a way to add that in using CSS only.
