Customizing display post meta data

Hi there,

you can use the Post Meta filter to include them in the Entry Meta:

https://docs.generatepress.com/article/generate_header_entry_meta_items/

You filter would look something like this:

add_filter( 'generate_header_entry_meta_items', function( $items ) {
    if ( is_single() ) {
        $items = array(
            'date',
            'author',
            'categories',
        );
    } return $items;
} );

If that works we can assist with some CSS to display the categories below the date and author.

Thank you for the quick answer!

Sorry, I'm a beginner.

In what file should I put this in?
Don't worry, I can try it on my local host. :-)

Thanks,

Hi there,

That code can be added using one of these methods: https://docs.generatepress.com/article/adding-php/

Thank you!

Glad we could be of help

Hello support team!

Okay, that works great, but this way is not very beautiful.

Now I want more. :-)
(Of course, I am willing to pay for such a personal adjustment.)

How do I get the categories with map-icon above the date and author in a single post?

Thanks & greetings!

Hi there,

so instead of the code provided above, add this:

add_filter( 'generate_category_list_output','lh_remove_categories' );
function lh_remove_categories( $categories ) {
	if ( is_single() ) {
		return '';
	}
}

add_action( 'generate_after_entry_title','lh_single_cats_above_title' );
function lh_single_cats_above_title() {
		$categories_list = get_the_category_list( _x( ', ', 'Used between list items, there is a space after the comma.', 'generatepress' ) );
		if ( $categories_list && is_single() ) {
			printf( '<span class="entry-meta cat-links"><span class="screen-reader-text">%1$s </span>%2$s</span>',
				_x( 'Categories', 'Used before category names.', 'generatepress' ),
				$categories_list
			);
		}
}

Then add this CSS to include a dashicon before it:

.entry-meta.cat-links:before {
    content: "\f231";
    font-family: "dashicons";
    display: inline;
}

Yes!!!!!!!!

Great, wonderful, genius!
I love you!
When are we gonna have a beer? (Amsterdam?)

I've change the following.:

content: "\f231"; to: content: "\f07b";
and
font-family: "dashicons" to: font-family: "GeneratePress";

Thank you very much!
