   How may I remove the author byline, while retaining the dateline in posts? I am using a customized version of the minimalist theme.

   Thanks in advance for any assistance.

   "minimalism" is the name of the template's theme. Please excuse my error in naming it as "minimalist" in the post above.

   Ah! I found it. Should anyone else come this way and wonder how it was done, I'll explain:

   The edit was made in the Main Index Template (index.php). I changed the code from its original form to the following:

   <div class="post" id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>">
   				<small><?php the_time(__('F jS, Y', 'minimalism')) ?></small>
   				<h2><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="<?php printf(__('Permanent Link to %s', 'minimalism'), the_title_attribute('echo=0')); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h2>

   This change achieved not only the removal of the author byline, but the reversal of the post title and dateline, about which I had also inquired.

   Both problems have been resolved, and both marked as so. Thanks to anyone who looked in.
