Wanting date ONLY on blog

[robmac]

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 🙂

Hi there,

Give this a shot:

add_filter( 'generate_post_date','generate_change_date_display' );
function generate_change_date_display()
{
    if ( is_home() ) {
        return true;
    }

    return false;
}

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;
}
