   Hi, I have WordPress-based website (http://bit.ly/dd5FKh).

   I am currently satisfied with my theme, but I would like to someway hide the post tags that are displayed after the posts. I have seen lots of WP blogs that didn't showed any tags.

   Is there any way to hide the tags, without receiving any penalty from the search engines?

   Can you remove the tag id from either single.php or index.php?

   <?php
             $posttags = get_the_tags();
             if ($posttags) { ?>
             <p class="tags"><?php the_tags(''); ?></p>
             <div class="clear"></div>
             <?php } ?>

   This is the part of code from single.php that I think it's causing the tags to be displayed. My question would now be: if I remove this, will the search engines still find out the post tags?

   Try the easy way to hide the class, no code hacking :)

   open style.css and add at the bottom

   .tags
   {
      display: none;
   }

   I use this for the blog title / description, so the search engines still pick it up, try it and use firebug to have a look.
