Hi everyone,

I want to remove the author info (author box and the name in the posts) not in general, but only for a certain WordPress account.

I guess, there is no possibility by the theme itself. But do you maybe have a workaround for it? I would appreciate any suggestions.

Thanks a lot in advance! 🙂

Thanks a lot for your reply. But do you maybe have an idea for any workaround or function, using a child theme?

Thanks a lot in advance.

Hi,

I think that you can use a custom css, if you provide me a link to one of these author box that you want to remove, I will try to help you!

Thank you!

Hi Calin,

unfortunately the site is not live yet, but you can access one of the author boxes here with the following credentials: user / userpasswd

Hope that works? I would really appreciate your help – thanks a lot in advance.

Hi,

I made a custom css, is not so professional, but it should work -> https://i.imgur.com/5oV1cQN.png it will be apply on all links that contain that word (redaktion) inside an author box, apply the code on more authors like this -> https://i.imgur.com/wSaxpBv.png -> https://i.imgur.com/BIKMljc.png
.single .author-box-wrap a[href$="/redaktion/"],
.single .author-box-wrap a[href$="/luis-holuch/"]
{
display: none;
}
Unfortunately this is all I can do, hope it will help you!.

Thank you!
