    How can I hide the published date of a custom post type from showing up the SERP?

    Here is an example: http://i.imgur.com/RnhEzAA.png

    It's fine for blog posts, but I would like the custom post types to not show.

    Thank you.

    Hi, Yoast's SEO plugin gives you an option to hide date from SERPs. I suggest you to try it once.

    You are correct. My apologies for the oversight.

    Follow up questions related to this. Will it take some time now for the SERP to reflect this change since they date is already showing?

    Yes, it will take a couple of weeks for it to be updated depending upon the crawl rate of your site.
    You can increase it temporarily from Google webmaster tools.

    Also, make sure that you don't have date anywhere on projects' pages.
