    Hi Everyone,

    I’m trying to optimize my authors with Google + and haven’t been able to do it in Esquire in a way that I like. This is what it looks like now: http://www.oh-i-see.com/blog. You can see my by line under the title of the article with the posting date. Since our theme already shows the date in the flag, I don’t want the date next to the by line, but when it’s not there, Google doesn’t pick it up. I put it in white text for a while, but heard that penalizes my Google score. Does anyone know? How are you guys resolving this issue?

    Thanks,
    Emily

    Hi Emily,
    I haven’t run into this—but you could check for plugins that manage Google+ for you (regardless of the theme).

    Hi Lance,

    I checked with Google+ and have decided to keep the date in the byline visible. That seems to be the best solution; if somewhat redundant.

    OK—good to know; good info for next time this comes up (regardless of the theme, anyway).
