    Does anyone know how to remove the author or bio info at the bottom of each blog post?
    For some reason I cannot uncheck the "Enable Author Box on this User's Posts?" field in profile settings. It wont let me uncheck that box and save.

    So I just added this to the additional CSS:
    .author-box {
    display: none;
    }

    Is that the proper way to do this?

    Add to functions.php:

    remove_action( 'genesis_after_entry', 'genesis_do_author_box_single', 8 );
