I have removed any kind of meta information on my site recently, except the “posted on”. So my example is slightly different, but this should help you to know where to go:
1. in comments.php
delete the following lines:
<?php else : // or, if we don't have comments:
/* If there are no comments and comments are closed,
* let's leave a little note, shall we?
* But only on posts! We don't really need the note on pages.
*/
if ( ! comments_open() && ! is_page() ) :?>
<p class="nocomments"><?php _e( ' Comments are closed.', 'coraline' ); ?></p>
<?php endif; // end ! comments_open() ?>
disables entry „Comments are closed.“ on bottom in single-view
2. in single.php
For the single-post view
inside “entry-meta” you find:
<?php coraline_posted_on(); coraline_posted_by(); ?>
<span class="comments-link"><span class="meta-sep">|</span> <?php comments_popup_link( __( 'Leave a comment', 'coraline' ), __( '1 Comment', 'coraline' ), __( '% Comments', 'coraline' ) ); ?></span>
Delete completely the <span> part to remove any comments-entries above the posts.
In my case I deleted also coraline_posted_by(); in the first line to delete the author but leaving the date above the posts.
inside “entry-info” delete also
<?php coraline_posted_in(); ?>
if you want to remove the categories below the post. In my case this removed also the “Bookmark Permalink” thing
3. in loop.php
This is if you want the changings also for the main page displaying your posts.
In the section: (/* How to display posts in the Gallery category. */)
inside “enty-meta”:
original code:
<?php coraline_posted_on(); coraline_posted_by(); ?>
delete: coraline_posted_by()
–> This is my case deleting author but leaving the date above the post.
inside “enty-info” delete the following lines:
<span class="comments-link"><?php comments_popup_link( __( '→ Leave a comment', 'coraline' ), __( '→ 1 Comment', 'coraline' ), __( '→ % Comments', 'coraline' ) ); ?></span>
–> deletes comments-entries below the posts
and the same for the section: /* How to display posts in the asides category */
inside “entry-info” delete the following lines:
<p class="comments-link"><?php comments_popup_link( __( '→ Leave a comment', 'coraline' ), __( '→ 1 Comment', 'coraline' ), __( '→ % Comments', 'coraline' ) ); ?></p>
In the section /* How to display all other posts. */
Inside “entry-meta” you find this:
<?php coraline_posted_on(); coraline_posted_by(); ?>
<span class="comments-link"><span class="meta-sep">|</span> <?php comments_popup_link( __( 'Leave a comment', 'coraline' ), __( '1 Comment', 'coraline' ), __( '% Comments', 'coraline' ) ); ?></span>
elete completely the <span> part to remove any comments-entries above the posts.
In my case I deleted also coraline_posted_by(); in the first line to delete the author but leaving the date above the posts.
Inside “entry-info” you find:
<p class="comments-link"><?php comments_popup_link( __( '→ Leave a comment', 'coraline' ), __( '→ 1 Comment', 'coraline' ), __( '→ % Comments', 'coraline' ) ); ?></p>
<?php if ( count( get_the_category() ) ) : ?>
<p class="cat-links"><?php printf( __( '<span class="%1$s">Posted in</span> %2$s', 'coraline' ), 'entry-info-prep entry-info-prep-cat-links', get_the_category_list( ', ' ) ); ?></p>
<?php endif; ?>
I deleted all of it to get rid of all type of information (comments, categories, permalink) below the posts.
