Remove post date from Ambience Pro theme

[braderz31]

Hi there

I'm trying to figure out how to remove the post date from the featured images on the homepage and the main posts themselves.

I've had a look through theme files and can't work out how to do this.

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated

Thanks

Brad

Try adding this to your stylesheet

.entry-time {
display: none;
}

Hi

Thanks for your reply but ideally I want to remove the markup completely (just for cleanliness) rather than hiding it from the browser with css.

I guess I just need a function so I better go and find the genesis functions and hooks that are available.

Thanks

Ah the plugin - thank you.

I'll try that

I've just found this code from the studiopress code snippets but it doesn't seem to work

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

any ideas what else to try?

If I have to resort to the plugin I will

Thanks

Just for info - I installed the plugin and it only allows you to remove post info from the post itself and not on the homepage featured image 🙁

It was a bit of a hack and I'm not entirely content with it but I've achieved the desired result.

I ended up using the CSS mentioned above to remove the time and date for the featured posts on the homepage.

Then for the individual posts page I had to amend this function in the functions.php file:

//* Customize the entry meta in the entry header
add_filter( 'genesis_post_info', 'ambiance_single_post_info_filter' );
function ambiance_single_post_info_filter( $post_info ) {

	$post_info = '[post_date] [post_author_posts_link] [post_comments] [post_edit]';
	return $post_info;

}

I amended it to this

//* Customize the entry meta in the entry header
add_filter( 'genesis_post_info', 'ambiance_single_post_info_filter' );
function ambiance_single_post_info_filter( $post_info ) {

	$post_info = '';
	return $post_info;

}

If anyone knows of a cleaner way to do this, I'd be very grateful

Thanks

The remove_action snippet you originally tried is for XHTML themes. If your theme is HTML5 then it won't work. You could try this one instead:

remove_action( 'genesis_entry_header', 'genesis_post_info', 12 );

If you want that just for the posts on the home page then you'll need to implement it with a conditional check. Brad Dalton covers lots of cases here:
