Blog on the Pitch theme settings

By Imm Catford, 9 years ago. Last reply by Andrew Misplon, 9 years ago.

Hi
I currently use Pitch for my website but I am incurring a few problems.
How can I change the way my Blog posts appear ? like disable dates and author, change the default feature on the right, ensure that the summary post appear in the same font,color and size as the full post ?
Is there a plugin you could recommend ? I have tried, WP author, date and Meta remover, no page comment plugins to no avail.

Thanks a lot
IMM

    Hi Imm

    Pitch unfortunately doesn’t have any theme settings of this nature. Our Vantage theme does though: http://demo.siteorigin.com/vantage/.

    You can manage your sidebar widgets from Appearance > Widgets: Sidebar.

    It’s possible to hide all Post Info by inserting the following into a Custom CSS plugin/module or Appearance > Custom CSS if you’re running Pitch Premium.

    /* Pitch Hide Single Post Info */
    
    #post-single.type-post .post-info { display: none; }
    
    /* Pitch Archive Post Info */
    
    #loop.loop-posts .post-info { display: none; }
    

    It looks like you might have customised the CSS for part of the content but not all of it. You could sort out that excerpt using the following in a Custom CSS plugin:

    /* Content */
    
    #loop.loop-posts .post-main .content {
    color: #fff;
    font-family: "Trebuchet MS", "Lucida Grande", "Lucida Sans Unicode", "Lucida Sans", Tahoma, sans-serif;
    }

    Thanks Andrew,

    Is Custome CSS only available with Pitch Premium ? It doesn’t seem to be in Appearance.
    Also, based on what you’ve seen will be better and easier to change from Pitch to Vantage ?
    By the way, I didn’t customise the CSS for part of the content; just edited font , sizes and color.

    That’s correct. Appearance > Custom CSS is in Pitch Premium, you can use though:

    https://wordpress.org/plugins/simple-custom-css/
    or
    http://jetpack.me/support/custom-css/

    Overall Vantage is a much more modern and customisable theme to work with.

    Wow, Worked like a charm!
    I unintentionally changed something here
    <div id="post-single" >

    and now the full articles disappear once i click “read more” .

    And by changing “none” to “feature” or “image” in the code you sent 2 days ago will I get to display an image instead ?

    thanks again

    Sorry, not quite with you there.

    It’s possible to delete Pitch and then re-install the theme. That would replace any files that you’ve accidentally edited.
