[Resolved] Metadata and Dispatch

[Karen]

Hi, I am struggling to remove metadata including author and date using the Dispatch template. I have used the settings in the customizer to remove these settings for the blog but they are still showing on my posts. I think I may be missing something but I’m not sure what. It works for the Tasty template, but not for Dispatch.

Hi there,

the Dispatch Site uses a Header Element on the Single Post:

https://docs.generatepress.com/article/header-element-overview/

You will find the element titled Single Post in Appearance > Elements.
Edit that and remove the template tags you don’t require ie this piece of the HTML:

<p>{{post_author}} | {{post_date}} | {{post_terms.category}}</p>

Perfect, it was so easy after all! Thank you.

The original site had a bunch of posts that cover some of the finer details of how Dispatch works.
