Stow Theme CSS for post author, menu style, and category archive
-
Is it possible, with a premium account, to use CSS to do the following things in the Stow theme?
- Hide post author, post date, etc.
- Hide post title on some pages
- Show full posts, with paragraph breaks and formatting in the category archives
- Sort category archives results from A-Z
- remove dashes from menu sub items and style it differently
Thank you

Hi there,
Hiding author and date, hiding titles on specific posts/pages, and changing how the menu is styled, including removing the dashes, are all possible using CSS.
However, the other items are not. CSS can only be used to modify the appearance of elements already visible on the page. It cannot be used to add something that isn’t there already (e.g. displaying a full post instead of an excerpt, or adding HTML elements like paragraph breaks), and it also cannot be used to manipulate the order in which data is displayed (e.g. change order of results.)
Stow is designed to just show excepts on category archives, and any archive page in WordPress (regardless of theme) is always ordered in reverse chronological order by publication date. Changing either of these would require modifying the theme’s PHP code to make the theme work differently, and that’s only possible on the Business Plan. We also don’t provide support for that type of modification, so you’d need to hire a developer to help you with those changes.
