Hi,
We have chosen to hide the author on posts but it still shows up in the source code (see below). Is there any way to hide the author information?
Thanks
<meta name=”author” content=”Author Name”>
<div class=”td-author-name vcard author” style=”display: none”><span class=”fn”>Author Name</span></div>
<meta itemprop=”author” content = “Author Name”>
Hi,
You will have to remove author box from each post template that you use – http://screencast.com/t/VmU3nSLGkpR and it will be removed also from page source.
Thanks!
Thanks, but how do you also remove the meta information for the author in the head? (meta name=”author”)
Thanks. Is there any way to avoid having to manipulate the code? I assumed when I turned off showing the author in the theme, it would also not show it in the code. The problem is that Facebook sharing picks up the “hidden” author information now, which is not good.
Hi,
unfortunately the theme doesn’t support that out of the box. In general people want the author markup because google metadata testing tool will emit an error when the author markup is missing.
I understand, but also publishers don’t want author information posted on Facebook via Share so there should be some way to avoid that ideally.
Hi,
I’ve added this to our feature suggestion list but please know that we have over 300 feature requests and we have to pick very carefully what we will implement.
