Changing Author & Date Formatting from Demo

Posted in: Newspaper
Post count: 16

I installed one of the demos. I’m making original pages, and when blocks show the Author & Date, they’re formatting as…

“Author Name x Date”

… with the “x” in the middle.

So in some blocks that don’t show the Author name, like Block 7, I get this annoying “x” before the date.

I’d rather not have the “x” between these meta tags ever.

Where can I edit or remove this character?

Thank you.

Hi,

In order to remove that “x” between author name and date you can use a custom css
.td-post-author-name span{
visibility: hidden
}

Set this code in theme panel>custom code>custom css and that character will disappear

Thank you!

Hmmm, that didn’t seem to work. I put the code there and saved it, but the “x” is still appearing on posts and in modules.

For reference, I started with the Sound Radar demo template which shows the “x” prominently.

Maybe there’s another css option or a particular file where I could find and delete the character?

Hi,

Yes, for this demo, you’ll need to use a different custom css, please try this one:
.td-sound-radar .td-post-date:before{
visibility: hidden
}

Thank you!

Okay, that worked for the demo. The blank space is still there, and in Modules that just show the date, the date is indented a couple spaces to the right. But this is workable for now.

Thanks for your help, Calin.

Hi,

If you want to remove the blank space too please replace the above code with this one

.td-sound-radar .td-post-date:before{
display: none;
}

Thanks.

Awesome. That worked perfectly. Thanks, Calin!
