Changing Post Metadata
-
I am new to WordPress and the Raindrops theme. I have searched for ways to change the metadata displayed for each post but this seems to be hidden in different places in different themes. I would like to remove some of the information from the default set of data displayed under the title of each post, currently “Posted on Date Time By”. How do I do this in Raindrops?
I would also like to be able to change font size and possibly move to a different position.

Hi ruth.hopper
I would like to remove some of the information
Please be as specific description
Thank you.
Remove Posted on, Time and By – so that it is just the date which is displayed
I recommend use child theme for customize.
reason: For customization, not lost in updates
see:
http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes
( note: Not needs @import rule at style.css )
simple child theme example
http://tenman.info/download/child-raindrops.zip
or using boots
https://wordpress.org/themes/boots
Please add child theme style.css
article .posted-on .meta-prep + a, /* home publish time */ article .posted-on .meta-prep, /* home posted on */ article .posted-on .meta-sep, /* home by */ article .entry-meta-default .meta-sep, /* single by */ article .entry-meta-default .meta-prep, /* single posted on */ article .entry-meta-default .meta-prep + a{ /* single publish time */ display: none; } /* if you need publisher hide article .posted-on .author, article .entry-meta-default .author{ display:none;} */Thank you.
Thanks – that works
How do I change the font size of the post metadata?

If you did not write this code correctly, a serious error occurs.
It is assumed that there is an understanding of PHPadd functions.php top (
<?phpbefore )<?php add_filter( 'raindrops_posted_in', 'function_name' ); function function_name( $return_value ) { return $return_value . raindrops_comments_link(); } add_filter( 'raindrops_posted_on', 'function_name2' ); function function_name2( $return_value ) { return str_replace( raindrops_comments_link(), '', $return_value ); } ?>change result like below
<?php add_filter( 'raindrops_posted_in', 'function_name' ); function function_name( $return_value ) { return $return_value . raindrops_comments_link(); } add_filter( 'raindrops_posted_on', 'function_name2' ); function function_name2( $return_value ) { return str_replace( raindrops_comments_link(), '', $return_value ); } ?><?php /** * functions and constants for Raindrops theme * * * @package Raindrops * @since Raindrops 0.1 */ if ( !defined( 'ABSPATH' ) ) { exit; }Thanks
What do I do if I want to remove the Comment link completely?remove below
add_filter( 'raindrops_posted_in', 'function_name' ); function function_name( $return_value ) { return $return_value . raindrops_comments_link(); }Sorry, I don’t understand your replies!
I don’t want to edit the Raindrops theme, I want to put something in my child theme, so I can’t just delete something.
The Comment link currently appears next to the Post title on every post. I want to remove this link on both the Home page and the individual post.Second point: the Leave a reply box appears at the bottom of individual post; I would like to remove this but have the Comment link in its place so that the Leave a reply box is only then displayed
It means that you delete from the code that previous post.
From theme, it does not mean you want to delete the code directly
Thank you – that worked.
Can you help me with the other point: the Leave a reply box appears at the bottom of individual post; I would like to remove this but have the Comment link in its place so that the Leave a reply box is only then displayed

Nice Idea!
Please try below style
Add style.css bottom
#comments #reply-title, #comments form{ display:none; } #comments:target #reply-title, #comments:target form{ display:block; }This removed the Leave a reply box but did not insert the Comment link…
try below
add_action( 'after_setup_theme', 'my_extend_comments' ); function my_extend_comments() { add_filter( 'raindrops_posted_on', 'function_name2' ); add_filter( 'raindrops_posted_in', 'function_name' ); } function function_name( $return_value ) { return $return_value . raindrops_comments_link(); } function function_name2( $return_value ) { return str_replace( raindrops_comments_link(), '', $return_value ); }Excellent – that works on the Home page and in the Category view.
However, if I go onto the individual post itself, the Leave a Reply box is still displayed as well as the Comment link – any way of not displaying this box until you click on the Comment link?
