Removing meta, info and comments

[NWTD]

I'm customizing the Entreprise theme. I created a page template to be used by single posts of a certain category. I had to add this filter to my functions.php to make it work:

add_filter('single_template', create_function('$t', 'foreach( (array) get_the_category() as $cat ) { if ( file_exists(STYLESHEETPATH . "/single-{$cat->term_id}.php") ) return STYLESHEETPATH . "/single-{$cat->term_id}.php"; } return $t;' ));

All changes I've made to that template thus far have worked just fine. I'm currently attempting to remove the post's info, meta and comments for these particular posts. I tried adding the following to the template referenced above, with no go:

remove_action( 'genesis_after_post', 'genesis_get_comments_template' );
remove_action( 'genesis_before_post_content', 'genesis_post_info' );
remove_action( 'genesis_after_post_content', 'genesis_post_meta' );

I then tried adding thefollwing to my functions.php, again, with no luck:
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'afn_custom_remove_comments' );

function afn_custom_remove_comments() {
    if(in_category( 'monthly-special' ) )  {
		remove_action( 'genesis_after_post', 'genesis_get_comments_template' );
		remove_action( 'genesis_before_post_content', 'genesis_post_info' );
		remove_action( 'genesis_after_post_content', 'genesis_post_meta' );
	}
}

Any suggestions?

Edit
I was able to "remove" the info and meta using the following:

add_filter('genesis_post_info', '__return_false');
add_filter('genesis_post_meta', '__return_false');

However, that just removed the output, and the HTML markup is still present.

You could do this from your functions file using the is_page_template() conditional or you'll find code on this post which you can add to your template file for HTML 5 or XHTML child themes, the code is different http://wpsites.net/web-design/modify-post-info-genesis/

@braddalton Thank you!!!

I swear I scoured the documentation and couldn't find anything relating to the HTML5 version of the codes. The only thing I haven't been able to find is how to remove comments from just this category. Did I miss that in the link you sent?

Try adding a conditional tag with the category i.d or slug to the code and filter the output removing the comments shortcode.
