    My new WordPress website has a number of posts now but there are certain posts I want the post date to be removed from. My site has things like news, reviews and biographies but I want dates to be removed from biographies as these are always been edited and I don’t want them to look ‘out of date’. Is there a way of removing the post date from certain posts or categories? Maybe a plugin or by editing some code?

    you could wrap the date output code into a conditional statement using in_category('biographies') or so, assuming that the category is specific to these posts;

    example:

    <?php if( !is_category('biographies') ) /*the existing date output code, for instance:*/ the_date(); ?>

    use the existing code as a starting point.
