Hello, I’ve enabled the author’s meta tag in the theme but it is also showing on the homepage search. I am running a multi authored site and i don’t want any author to appear on the homepage search results. Please tell me how to remove author’s meta from the homepage so that google doesn’t show any author in the homepage search results.
hi,
use : is_home() function to check if you are on the homepage
something like this:
if(!is_home()) {
__your code here to display the author__
}
here is some documentation : http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/is_home
Thanks for you message.

Hello, I don’t want to change the author, I want to completely remove the author for the homepage. Because we provide News and any author could not publish the homepage, i don’t want the homepage to have any author. Can you give me the code and tell me where to write it because i think that this is some problem with the theme, because any website’s homepage cannot contain author meta. Thanks, please give me the code and tell me where to write it.
Hi,
Do you use for search page Module search? if yes comment this line like here: http://screencast.com/t/MlINOWu7OxzX
Thanks!
Hello Marius, I am not asking for the search results when we search in the website. I am asking about that when i search my website on google, my website’s homepage appear on google with an author from my website and i don’t want any author for the homepage. Because we are a multi-author website and none of the authors owns the homepage. I just want to remove the author’s meta from the homepage only. Just the homepage. And also i want to do it for google search only, not for the website’s internal search.
Thank You Marius, I have recently got an email from themeforest and i am currently downloading the new version of the theme.
Thanks again. I hope that it will solve the problem. Although it would be a lot great if you could hire some people for support because responding to queries in over a week is not something that gets appreciated. It’s cool with me though because eventually my problem got resolved. Thanks for a great theme.
Hello Radu, I can’t give the website address, but i would like you to know that whenever someone search my website on Google he gets my homepage with my name and picture as the author. But this is not right, any author’s name and picture should not appear in the homepage. Please tell me how to remove the author’s meta from the homepage only.
Thanks.
yes Marius, I am using the latest version 3.5 of the theme. Also, you say that you fixed that but i haven’t seen it listed in the update log. I think that you forgot to update this point. Please, and even if you update that, please tell me how to update it manually. I will enter the code for that myself. Thanks.
Hi,
I forgot to add the fix to the update list but in 3.5 it is live. Sometimes it take some time until google reindex the page. http://screencast.com/t/mAiOv9f1lRIr

Hello Radu, yes it is the same code in my functions.php and i updated the theme the same day you released it on themeforest but still until now, the authors meta problem isn’t gone. Do, i have to turn it off manually somewhere? or does the functions automatically apply? please reply and also tell me when are you launching the next version of the theme. Thanks
And also, there is one more thing. I am using Block 6 on my homepage to display my post, but the pagination is not appearing, i don’t want the load more or next previous ajax, i just want simple numbers in the pagination to go to next page. Please tell me what’s the issue and how to solve it, the pagination is not appearing on Block 6 on homepage. Thanks
Hi,
1. The function will automatically apply.
2. Use a template with article list and select Module 9 http://screencast.com/t/x29IsZ5XQ

Hey, thanks Marius, I have resolved the issue. I’ve added a category filter which doesn’t show post from the featured category. thanks but the authors meta problem has not resolved yet, it is still showing on the homepage. Do, you think that it has something to do with Yoast WP SEO? please tell me if both the theme functioning and the WP SEO are clashing the functions producing unexpected results. Thanks.
hi,
try using the Unique Articles feature : http://screencast.com/t/1RB86pOM, for duplication.
the author meta problem should be resolved by now, what version are you using? , you can also try to disable all SEO and cache plugins (also delete the cache), just for a test.
Thanks for you message.
