Spearhead theme – date twice on posts

    I’m using the Spearhead theme on a blog, with a personal plan, so I have no access to CSS. There’s a date in the metadata under posts, and there’s also a date above posts. Is there any way I can remove the date below posts without CSS?

    Hi there,

    After a closer look at the demo site for the theme you are using (Spearhead) it appears that the date is repeated twice on purpose. It’s not as noticable on posts with more content however. Here’s a screenshot from the demo:

    Other than CSS the only way to hide this is to switch themes. However, it is possible to purchase a CSS add-on to the Personal plan (rather than upgrade to the Premium plan) which you may want to consider: https://wordpress.com/add-ons/

    This would allow you to add the following CSS to hide the appearance of the second date: 

    .single .entry-footer .entry-date {
    display: none;
}

    Hope that helps. Please let us know if you have any more questions.

    Thanks, I guess if I want more flexibility, I need to upgrade to the next plan. The add-on is $2 a month, and upgrading is $4 a month.

    Hello there,

    It’s totally your choice. :)

    You could always start with the custom CSS add-on and see how things progress.
