If you are using Firefox browser, do you have [Firebug](http://getfirebug.com/)? * If so, inspect the element you want to change, and edit the css directly in your browser using Firebug, or developer mode for other browsers to found out what specific selectors to add the “display: none” declaration to. Then go into your themes folder (wp-content/themes/”your-theme”/styles.css) and edit the styles. css file. Using Firebug, or other development tool, it should show you approximately what line in the file where the selector is you need to add the declaration to. You should also avoid changing the styles for the parent theme, but rather create a child theme so whenever you update, your changes are not affected. Good luck! * Thread Starter [Kimbert](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kimbert/) * (@kimbert) * [10 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/css-for-date/#post-6547058) * Thank you Jake, * my website is [http://www.galerieimbert.com](http://www.galerieimbert.com) and I am using WP4.3 * I think I have found it thanks to Jetpack but.. * I don’t know what everyone is talking about for a childtheme… How do I create this, just with text edit that I would save in my site folder on my desktop? * I have downloaded Jetpack and firebug… * thank you again * Kathleen * Thread Starter [Kimbert](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kimbert/) * (@kimbert) * [10 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/css-for-date/#post-6547060) * Hello Jake, * No it didn’t save…I found the specific semectos to add the dsplay:non in Jetpack, changed it but I don’t know how to save it….? * In Firebug, I can also find it but do not know how to implement it with my theme.. * Thank you again, Kathleen * Thread Starter [Kimbert](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kimbert/) * (@kimbert) * [10 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/css-for-date/#post-6547073) * Hello Jake, * sorry for all the typos in the above message. I found the selectors changed them in firebug but don’t know how to save them. * And how do I create a childtheme? * thank you Kathleen * [Jake](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jakewpsupport/) * (@jakewpsupport) * [10 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/css-for-date/#post-6547139) * Hi Kathleen. * Child themes are a way of making changes to the parent theme without having to edit the parent theme code. For example, consider you are using the parent theme, Twenty Fifteen, and want to change the styles for it. You would not want to edit the styles.css in the Twenty Fifteen theme folder, but rather you could make a child theme, called something like “Child Twenty Fifteen”. You can do this by following the instructions in the WordPress codex for child themes: [Child Themes](https://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes). In order to edit the styles.css file, you would want to use a good text editor. I use Notepad++. Sorry for the late reply. Feel free to let me know if you have any other questions. * Moderator [Kathryn Presner](https://wordpress.org/support/users/zoonini/) * (@zoonini) * [10 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/css-for-date/#post-6547237) * I replied in [one of your other threads](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/child-theme-173?replies=4&view=all#post-7440090) about child themes. * Let me know how it goes! * Moderator [Kathryn Presner](https://wordpress.org/support/users/zoonini/) * (@zoonini) * [10 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/css-for-date/#post-6547238) * It also looks like you got Jetpack active. * Once you activate the Custom CSS module you’ll be able to add your custom CSS in the new stylesheet editor that’ll appear in your dashboard, under Appearance > Edit CSS. * If the only changes you want to make to your site involve CSS, you don’t need** both** the Jetpack custom CSS editor **and** a child theme, you only need one.
