    Hi, I have tried two different ways to remove the author tag from the post info and neither are working.

    First is :

    add_filter('genesis_post_info', 'my_post_info');
    function my_post_info() {
    $post_info = '[post_date] [post_comments] [post_edit]';
    return $post_info;
    }

    Second is:

    /** Customize the post info function */
    add_filter( 'genesis_post_info', 'post_info_filter' );
    function post_info_filter($post_info) {
    if (!is_page()) {
    $post_info = 'Posted on [post_date]  [post_comments] [post_edit]';
    return $post_info;
    }
    }

    I am stumped! Any ideas of what I might be doing wrong? I am using MomPrenuer child theme, don't see anything in functions that would conflict, have been able to add other code to function just fine.

    Any help is appreciated!

    ok, thanks for the suggestion and I am curious, why won't either of these work? I have added more then a few other snippets and all have worked.

    thanks again! appreciated.

    got the first one from elektroelch.net

    second (I think :)) - http://www.basicwp.com/edit-author-url-genesis-post-info/

    there are a few examples when i typed in a search on google...

    i have the simple edits installed, where i had modified the footer so did as you suggested, just trying to understand.

    yes the plugin works, so i guess this is resolved, though i still can't figure out why the snippets didn't work... guess no one else is curious :).
