Hide or remove post date on archive tempalte

[cpaone]

I am trying to hide or remove the post date on my archive template, only (I want it to appear on the individual post). I only want the featured image and post title to appear on my archive.

I was able to hide all other elements except the post date with adding this code to my functions.php - does anyone know the proper hooks to remove the post date on the workstation pro theme?

// Remove Post Info, Post Meta from Archive Pages
function themeprefix_remove_post_meta() {
if (is_archive()) {
remove_action( 'genesis_entry_header', 'genesis_post_info', 12 );
remove_action( 'genesis_entry_content', 'genesis_do_post_content' );
remove_action( 'genesis_entry_footer', 'genesis_post_meta' );
}
}
add_action ( 'genesis_entry_header', 'themeprefix_remove_post_meta' );

add_filter( 'genesis_post_info', 'sp_post_info_filter' );
function sp_post_info_filter($post_info) {
if ( is_archive() ) {
	$post_info = 'by [post_author_posts_link] [post_comments] [post_edit]';
	return $post_info;
    }
}

Using a code editor, add the above PHP to the end of your child themes functions file.

Change the conditional tag if needed.

thanks for the reply but the above code suggested to add to the php functions file actually breaks the site?

The code comes from StudioPress and has been used millions of times.

Did you add the code using FTP and a code editor?

I tested it and it does not break.

Thanks for testing.

I still get the same issue - a blank site

I copy/ pasted the code to the end of my child theme functions.php file, then uploaded it (as a replacement) via ftp - do you know what I might be doing wrong here? Appreciate the support

Remove the old code and try this one

add_filter( 'genesis_post_info', 'gd_post_info_filter' );
function gd_post_info_filter( $post_info ) {

  if ( is_archive() ) {
	 $post_info = __( 'by' ) . ' [post_author_posts_link] [post_comments] [post_edit]';
  }
  
  return $post_info;
  
}

Thanks for the help, both code samples helped me find the solution...

Turns out the 'sp_post_info_filter' was already in use earlier in the functions file and I did not see it (I am new to this). Here is what I ended up doing to get the results I wanted...

//* Customize the entry meta in the entry header (requires HTML5 theme support)
add_filter( 'genesis_post_info', 'sp_post_info_filter' );
function sp_post_info_filter($post_info) {
$post_info = '[post_date]';
if ( is_archive() ) {
$post_info = '';
}
return $post_info;
}

// Remove Post excerpt, Post Meta from Archive Pages
add_action ( 'genesis_entry_header', 'themeprefix_remove_post_meta' );
function themeprefix_remove_post_meta() {
if (is_archive()) {
remove_action( 'genesis_entry_content', 'genesis_do_post_content' );
remove_action( 'genesis_entry_footer', 'genesis_post_meta' );
}
}
