Hello.
I finally managed in getting an extra custom field in the meta data of blocks.
I also recently updated to the most recent version of tagdiv and theme in general.
Suddenly there is a bit of code added everywhere to the end of my authors in the metadata.
Right after the author the websites injects this: <span>-</span>, resulting in a dash everywhere added at the end of the author. Also a margin is added to this which I really did not add myself.
Any thoughts where I can find this extra bit of code and how to remove it ?
It seems to happen only in the flex block 1.
Also, since we are mainly a reviewers site we would like to display nicknames on some occasions instead of the real names.
For instance, author “Jan van den Bulck” takes up a lot of space, pusing other meta data onto another rule, we would like to use the nickname (jvdb) instead.
Again this is not needed everywhere but on some occasions, both issues can be seen in the example link below.

1. dash issue: ENOLA.PLAY MAARTEN LANGHENDRIES – x 21 JULI 2018
2. the first two articles (play and concert&festivalnoise) should display the full name, whereas the four columns below that we’d like to have the nicknames. How would we proceed in changing this ?
thanks for the suggestions
Nick
I should add that I am using the cloud templates and have a seperate cloud template made for this category, so maybe this is changeable in this template somehow ?
Hi,
That would be the author line – https://www.screencast.com/t/8zjvs8Hf
– https://www.screencast.com/t/Oix4w33bugO
When the date is displayed that line will be displayed as well, as a delimitation between them.
In the sound radar demo you have installed this line should be hidden, instead there is a “x” before the date set with some CSS

A code seems to override the removal of the line, making it visible

I can’t tell exactly where that code which makes it appear originates from.
The author name displayed in modules and posts will be the one set in WordPress by each user, in the profile settings

Thanks
Neither can I.
I tried copying module.php to the child theme with the span class removed but that doesn’t do the trick either. Only way then is to do it in the main theme.
I’ve tried everything I could now, removing my own custom css code too but to no avail.
You must have did something, now it is gone from all modules

If you found out it is a problem with the demo or the theme, please mention it.
I had to remove the code <span>-</span> from the td module.php in the parent theme to get rid of it. (tried adding the php file to the child theme in the booster folder but that didn’t work)
I couldn’t find where the issue originates from, and it appeared after the last update of the new theme version 9, so to my mind it is likely a theme issue yes.
I installed the demo and found the problem. Seems to happen specifically with the flex blocks. I will add this on our issue list and it will be fixed. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Some of the demos were built when there were no flex blocks and now there could be minor design issues.
