Removing date & time from comments

Hi Mike,

This CSS should remove the date from comments:

.comment-metadata a {
      display: none;
}

.comment-metadata .reply {
      color: transparent;
}

.comment-metadata .reply a {
      display: inline-block;
}

Let me know if that works or not.

As for your name, if you go to "Users > Your Profile", you can edit the name that's displayed publicly.

Tom.

It worked thank you sooo much! you guys are great!!!

Hi Tom,

How about removing it entirely from your page. removing it for user as well as for search engine.

Regards

Maybe try a plugin like this: https://en-ca.wordpress.org/plugins/hide-wp-comment-author-link/

Hmm, unfortunately to do that you would need to overwrite the entire comments function: https://github.com/tomusborne/generatepress/blob/1.3.40/inc/template-tags.php#L110-L169

Adding that function to your child theme/custom plugin/Code Snippets plugin (including the function_exists wrapper) will allow you to make changes to it.

Hi,

So you are saying it is not possible to remove the comment metadata fully.
and maybe just place the edit/reply button beneath the comment?

Like this,

By overwriting the generate_comment() function, you can remove/add/change whatever you like.

So you would paste that entire function highlighted into your child theme functions.php/custom plugin/Code Snippets plugin, then make your adjustments.

That way you can remove the bar: https://github.com/tomusborne/generatepress/blob/1.3.40/inc/template-tags.php#L144

And the time stamp: https://github.com/tomusborne/generatepress/blob/1.3.40/inc/template-tags.php#L141
