'Display Post Author' doesn't show author

In the customizing menu of my blog posts, 'Display post author' is checked and the author is displayed on the page. However, when the customizing menu is exited, the author no longer shows. Yes, the content is in a published state.

Hi there,

can you disable autoptimize as there is this CSS which is hiding the byline:

.entry-meta {
    display: none;
}

But i cannot see where that is coming from with autoptimize enabled,

Thanks, it's weird, although I'm not sure if it's worth disabling autooptimize and the entry meta. I am disabling the entry meta because on the home page posts, it has the <footer> which is taking up a lot of whitespace: https://imgur.com/a/ajqIcD0

What do you think?

If you know have added the CSS then change it so it only applied to the footer entry meta - like so:

footer.entry-meta {
    display: none;
}

Thanks! Looks like its autooptimize blocking it for some reason still... I'll just live with it for now, thank you as always man :)

marking as resolved

If you know where this CSS is:

.entry-meta {
    display: none;
}

make sure you delete that before adding this:

footer.entry-meta {
    display: none;
}

Then clear the Autoptimize cache.

Otherwise - glad to hear you settled on a solutio
