Help Removing Post Info

[Porter]

I'm having trouble removing my post info on a custom post type page. I moved the post info to the bottom of the post with this:

//* Move the post info to the bottom of the page.
remove_action( 'genesis_entry_header', 'genesis_post_info', 12 );
add_action( 'genesis_after_entry_content', 'genesis_post_info');

I then found this code to remove the post info from a specific (or array) of custom post types:

//Remove post meta information from custom post types that don't need it.
add_filter ('genesis_after_entry_content', 'tx_remove_post_info');

function tx_remove_post_info() {
	if (is_singular(array( 'venues', 'CPTNAME2', 'CPTNAME3' ))) {
		echo("removing this");
		remove_action( 'genesis_after_entry_content', 'genesis_post_info', 12 );
		}
}

The echo is being read, so that bit works, but the post info isn't being removed. I assume I need to use "genesis_after_entry_content", as that's where I moved the post info to, but I'm not sure. One small note, the movement piece of code is in functions.php, while the removal for the custom post type is in a site specific plugin - I'm not sure if that's conflicting somehow (which is read first, etc). Any ideas?

Here's the page I'm trying to remove it from (bottom right) - http://towerofgreed.com/venues/akes-place/

Hi,

if you are using a plugin, wrap the remove action in a function:

I figured it out! I hadn't really paid any attention to the priority value (3rd parameter), and since I was removing, adding, and then conditionally removing, they weren't firing in the proper order. I was essentially trying to remove something that wasn't there yet, which is why the echo was above the post info. I set a manual value of 18 for the add and second remove, and that worked. I'll read up a bit more to fully grasp the priority system, but that was it 🙂

Glad you figured it out. I was just going to suggest to play with the priorities 🙂
