   Hi there,
   I installed Theme Blaskan but I don't know how customise post metadata, I just want Posted By. I found the code reference to that in loop.php but I have not idea of code to remove.
   http://www.powersmallproject.com/blog
   Code example:
   

   <?php if ( get_post_type() !== 'page' ): ?>
   				  <span class="author"><span class="author-label"><?php _e( 'Posted by', 'blaskan' ); ?></span> <?php the_author_posts_link(); ?></span>
   				<?php endif; ?>

   Any help please?
   Many thanks is advance

   Sorry. You had said what theme. I'm having a bad day.

   Try:

   span.comments,
   span.categories {
     display: none;
   }

   Remember that the only recommended way to modify a theme is in a Child Theme.

   Cheers

   The current rules are at:

   http://powersmallproject.com/blog/wp-content/themes/blaskan/style.css

   This is the stylesheet you'd import into a Child Theme. You'd then put your new rule after the @import statement in the Child Theme style sheet.

   If you don't mind tempting fate and are going to change your theme's own style sheet, then you should add any new rule(s) at the end. Preferably prefaced with a comment block expaining what you're doing. Keep a backup of anything you add to this area. Updates to your theme can wipe out your changes. That's why WP recommend the use of child themes.

   Creating a child theme takes about 5 minutes.

   Cheers

   Just to illustrate how easy it is to create a child theme, this is what you would have to do:

   • Create a new directory in your site's themes directory. Let's say you call it 'mychild'
   • Create a file called 'style.css' in a text editor (like Notepad or gEdit, not a word processor like Word)

   Now add the following comments and @import statement (using Notepad or whatever) to your style.css file:

   /*
   Theme Name:     My Child
   Template:       blaskan
   */
   @import url('../blaskan/style.css');

   Save your work and then upload the file to your server, putting it into the new directory you created ('mychild').

   Now go to your site's Dashboard --> Appearance --> Themes page. You should see the theme 'My Child' listed.

   Activate the My Child theme. You may have to redo a few of the configurations you did for your old theme. For instance if you have a custom menu, you will have to go to Dashboard --> Appearance --> Menus and reset your custom menu as the main menu. You might also have to redo any configurations you made in Dashboard --> Appearance --> Header.

   So check your configurations and save any changes you make.

   You can now visit your site and it should look exactly like it did before. The difference is that you can now make CSS changes in your child theme's css file, leaving the parent theme completely untouched.

   Cheers
