Author CSS styling

[Matthias]

Hi,
I am adding the author using the hook

<?php
global $post;
$author_id = $post->post_author;
?>
<p>von <?php printf( get_the_author_meta( ‘display_name’) );?></p>

for the blog posts.
Now I am trying to style the output. In particular I want it smaller and less distance to the line above and below.
I could not figure out the right CSS code for that.
Thank you for any guidance,
Matt

Hi Leo,
e.g. https://heilfasten-portal.com/fachartikel-fasten/darmentleerung-entschlacken.html
Its about the author name in the beginning…
All the best and thank you!

Ps. Idealy the size of the author name is the same like the last modified date and directly underneath it.

Can you try changing the code to this?

<?php
global $post;
$author_id = $post->post_author;
?>
<p class="custom-author">von <?php printf( get_the_author_meta( 'display_name') );?></p>
