Remove Date and Author from Lifestyle Pro theme

[ML3AM]

Hi, I've just installed the new Lifestyle Pro child theme and am trying to remove the date and author from posts. i don't want to use a plugin but don't know what code to use and where to put it. Can anyone help please?

I am having the same problem. Previously I have put the following into the functions file of Lifestyle.

/** Remove the post info function */
remove_action( 'genesis_before_post_content', 'genesis_post_info' );
?>

I tried putting this into the functions file for this site but evidently it doesn't work in Lifestyle Pro.

I have already been to the page Brad suggested.. found it when trying to Google the question.. but that page is very confusing.

Do I want to customize the entry header ?? remove the entry header markup ?? remove the entry meta ?? remove the entry title ??

Hard to know since I don't know what the entry header markup is.. or the entry meta.. ?? Have NO idea what they are talking about. HELLLP!

Hi Sherry, I managed to do it in the end but can't remember how. I looked in my custom php file and found this code so it might be that. Fingers crossed;
add_filter( 'genesis_post_info', 'sp_post_info_filter' );
function sp_post_info_filter($post_info) {
$post_info = 'by [post_author_posts_link] [post_comments] [post_edit]';
return $post_info;
}

Yikes! I don't have anything that says custom php .. where is that supposed to be?

The only php files I have are theme functions and theme defaults.. as well as front page and landing page.

If I screw up the functions file ( as I did a few days ago) I can always upload the original and I am good to go.

If I screw up something where there is no original file to upload.. how will I ever get back in?

Hi Sherry , I created a custom php file so I wouldn't break anything else and wouldn't lose changes I made with any theme updates. I'm not at all techy but managed it by following this video tutorial. The lady is really clear and has lots of videos for genesis tweaks that might be useful. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Za5YAUMqWvo

I'll go watch the video.. hopefully learn something 🙂
