 * On all my postings it shows my name and is dated. I don’t want that. I go into
   Posts, screen options, uncheck author and date… and it still shows up??
 * Then I go into each post individual and check screen settings. No author or date….
   and it still shows up in every post.
 * How do I get this removed? I don’t want an automatic date and my name on anything
 * Thanks!

 * Are you referring to Back-end or Front-end?
 * If you uncheck Author and Date in the post edit screen option, it just hide the
   boxes in the back-end (so that you can’t see anymore these options while editing);
   but wordpress still save them! This help you only to have a edit page more “Clean”,
   but nothing more!
 * However, if you want to hide them in the Front-end (the final page that a user
   sees), you have to change some php in the templates…

 * Yeah, the page the users see.
 * Any idea on where to change this?
 * Here’s the theme functions:
 *     ```
       <?php
       /** Start the engine */
       require_once( get_template_directory() . '/lib/init.php' );
   
       /** Create additional color style options */
       add_theme_support( 'genesis-style-selector', array( 'news-green' => 'Green', 'news-orange' => 'Orange', 'news-pink' => 'Pink', 'news-purple' => 'Purple', 'news-red' => 'Red', 'news-teal' => 'Teal' ) );
   
       /** Child theme (do not remove) */
       define( 'CHILD_THEME_NAME', 'News Theme' );
       define( 'CHILD_THEME_URL', 'http://www.studiopress.com/themes/news'
       ...
       );
       ```

 * NOTE to self. Never use a Genesis theme ever again…. well that is unless you 
   don’t want any support.

 * Could you post the **index.php**, **page.php** and **single.php** template? (
   Maybe use pastbin.com)
 * Ps. I saw the complete file you have posted here, in the follow-up mail. That’s
   not the correct one to edit.

 * Hey thanks for your help in looking into this. Both these pages have no data 
   on them? If you can’t figure it out, no worries…

 * No way to edit it… It’s protected.
    Try to get support at StudioPress. Good Luck!
