Wanting date ONLY on blog

Greetings,

Does anyone happen to know any easy way, to REMOVE the date, from posts OTHER than my actual blog? Is there a plugin that will assist, or, would I have to code it, please? Thank you for any guidance offered.

ie,

"My Blog" [date to REMAIN]
posts - category A [Wanting to REMOVE date on posts]
posts - category B [Wanting to REMOVE date on posts]
etc
etc

Thank you.

Hi there,

The Blog add-on allows you to remove it from all posts and your blog in the Customizer.

To remove it only within categories, you'll need to use the available filters with an is_category() conditional.

I'm away from my desktop right now but can give you some example code as soon as I'm back if you need?

Let me know :)

Tom,

Sorry for delay in replying.

Sincere thanks, as ever, for your very helpful support.

Hi Tom,

What I found works best, for what I want to do is, [with my child theme active] adding to "Simple CSS" the following:

.entry-meta {display: none;} it removes the date and author from all my posts. However, it also does from my blog, could please suggest some code I could add to the above CSS to exempt a specific category, please?

Thank you.

Regards,
Robert

You can hide it from categories with this:

.category .entry-meta {
    display: none;
}

You can do specific categories with this:

.category-categoryname .entry-meta {
    display: none;
}

Thanks again, seems to have worked fine!

Awesome :)
