Hide author in Blog Grid

By Peter Kvantum, 8 years ago. Last reply by Alex S, 8 years ago.

I wanna hide the author in blog grid, is there any way to do that? I’m using Vantage theme, and unfortunately although the site is set to hungarian, there is the author part which says “by xy name”. It uses the same CSS class with the date postest, so cannot hide there either.

    Hi Peter,

    Please navigate to WP AdminAppearanceTheme Settings and untick the Post Author setting and save the page.

    It’s unticked. But when i use blog grid, the author is there.
    I tried to use the theme’s default blog system too, there is another similar problem: the date has a posted on prefix before that which i cant hide with child theme (at least no luck yet), tried to delete it from template-tags.php and saving it to child theme. But the frontend still has the Posted on stuff :(

    Also tried translating the po and mo files, put it into the child theme, modified functions.php, downloaded the new vantege.pot file, still no luck :(

    Hi Peter,

    I’m going to start with the last reply first.

    Okay so, awkwardly, the pot file included with the current version of Vantage has a few slightly out of date strings. The “Posted on” text being one of them. Please download the updated pot file here. I would recommend using something like Loco Translate if you only have one thing you really want to translate.

    Onto your initial reply. This problem sounds like it might be a caching issue. Do you have any plugin based caching systems installed? Any server-side caching installed?

    Thanks Alex,

    I managed to set that Posted on into hungarian in the main theme. How can i set wpconfig to the child theme?
    As it has for directory:
    define( ‘WP_LANG_DIR’, dirname(__FILE__) . ‘wordpress/languages’ );

    Hi Peter,

    I have no idea what you’re asking. Could you please rephrase what you’re asking? Set the child theme via WordPress.

    Our theme will automatically pick up on the files in the language directory in the child theme.
