  I would like to know if there is a way to hide two items in the top left of my posts so that only the date will appear. I do not want to disable the comments. I only do not want “leave a comment” or the author to appear there. Is that possible? example… http://serealities.com/2015/09/25/earth-bound-by-j-zakour-and-vanelle-leblanc-2/

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

  Hi there, and you bet we can hide those with the following CSS.

  .entry-meta .comments-link, .entry-meta .byline {
      display: none;
  }

  Thanks so much!! Do you think I can remove the author too? Where it says “by Serealities”

  Hi again,
  I just noticed that the author does not show up on my laptop but it still shows up on my phone. Is there anything I can do about that? Thanks!!

  That’s weird. They’ve done some tricky bits in the CSS. Add the !important attribute after the “none” so it looks like this.

  .entry-meta .comments-link, .entry-meta .byline {
      display: none !important;
  }

  Oh, we can keep the comments if you would like. Change it to this instead.

  .entry-meta .byline {
      display: none !important;
  }

  This will bring back the comments on wider screens though, so you will have the date and the X Comments link to the left of the content.

  It’s ok. I don’t know that it’s so important at this point.
  You’re amazing as always!
  Many thanks!
