Remove post date (entry-time) sitewide and (comments-link) on homepage

[erinwyso]

Is there a way to remove the post date from all of my blog posts (sitewide) and the comments link (which only appears on my homepage). I'm doing this by going into Appearance/Customize/Additional CSS because I'm not comfortable making any modifications to any php files.

Here's my site: https://olivesfordinner.com/

I've tried adding this to "additional CSS" which does what I want, but when I look at my site on mobile or in incognito mode, the date or comments link still shows up!

.entry-comments-link,
.entry-time {
display: none;
}

Any clue on what I could add to my css to fix this? Thanks.

Try this PHP code https://my.studiopress.com/documentation/snippets/entry-header-html5/customize-the-entry-header/

Thanks, I tried that, but it didn't change anything.

There are a few ways to remove the post date and comments link from your homepage. One way is to go to the settings for your website and look for the option to turn these features off. Another way is to edit the code for your website and remove the lines of code that generate these features.

I also tried removing some of the following via this path:

Appearance > Customize > Theme Settings > Singular Content

[post_date] by [post_author_posts_link] [post_comments] [post_edit]

removing them from Entry Meta (above content) does not do anything either.

Remove the shortcodes from the PHP code for the entry meta you do not want to output like this.

Thanks Brad, I appreciate the responses. As mentioned above, I don't want to modify anything in the PHP code. I don't really know what I'm doing in there.

I'm going to try to install the Code Snippets plugin and see if I can figure out how to hide the date/comment count using that. Hopefully that will work.
