Hellow everyone n thx for your time! :)
Im doing my best to turn off the ‘category’ labels showing up as white text on a black rectangle background on top of the single posts yet there doesnt seem to be a way to deselect this. Help n thx, heres an example :
www.blackswansibyl.com
we are simply wanting to show the photo without the categories text on top.
1. We deleted selected categories vinked on, that creates a default ‘uncategorized’ category n shows that.
2. Weve gone into ‘appearance > customize > theme settings > blog yet theres no check box for turnig it off, only having them activated on single and archive posts.
3. Ive used custom css as well ‘/* hide page category, post title and author/dates */
.post-byline {
display: none!important;
}
.post-meta {
display: none!important;
}
nothings changed.
Work arounds
A. I tried band-aiding the problem by using a white ‘.’ on a black shape ‘~’ etc… odd.
B. Not using photos will delete it yet it also deletes an important blog design factor. not an option.
Options? what am I missing? Its engrained yet is it possible to unearth it from another part of the theme? We see n THX everyone for the skills effort & time!

Hi Brian,
Unfortunately, this doesn’t appear to be possible at this time without some custom CSS. Please navigate to WP AdminAppearancecustom CSS and add the following CSS:
.blog-layout-grid .thumbnail-meta { display: none; }How does that look?
You might also need to install the SiteOrigin CSS Editor.
I’ve messaged Andrew about this to see if 2 should have worked (I suspect it should have) so if it was, that’ll be fixed in an update. If it’s not, I’ll log this as a feature request.
Hi Brian,
I can confirm option 2 (unticking Categories on single and archive posts) should have worked. This will be fixed in the next update.
