How to drop the "By" prefix from the Author credit on posts

I’ve tried to track this down in the PHP code but the following modification still leaves the Word “By” in front of the author on all posts, even after I commented out every instance of:

( ‘By %s’ )

So that it read:

( /* ‘By */’%s’ )

In 13 files. Each referred to the post author and I only commented out the prefix of “By ” (including the trailing space). By commenting it out, I can back track if needed.

The editor of the new site posts other people’s content and does not want them to think he is taking credit for their work. He has decided that if we remove the word “By” so that it says “Northeast Oregon Now” instead of “By Northeast Oregon Now” that it will solve the problem to everyone’s satisfaction.

Can you think of anything I’m missing?

Hello,

Maybe you are facing a caching issue and your cache was not cleared. Here is where the word “by” is found: https://www.screencast.com/t/HVLrIU72oq
You can also translate it to a space in the theme translations section: https://www.screencast.com/t/unxRssy7u3B

Thank you!
