    Thank you again for a wonderful theme!

    Question please: I run the following search in Google: PPD award tara reck

    The resulting page is the one I linked to this support ticket.
    If you look at the page itself, or on any post on my website, there are no dates showing on any of them. However, the dates are showing in the Google search results.

    How can I “hide” the dates from Google or crawlers?

    I made a change just now – In Settings -> General -> under Date Format and Time Format, I selected Custom and left the entry blank. Will that do the trick?

    Would appreciate any help. And Thank You again.

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    Hi @obahat,

    Glad you like it!

    WordPress automatically outputs meta tags that specify the publication date of each post, so it’s likely that that’s what Google is picking up. I’m not sure how to disable those meta tags. Since it’s not theme specific, you might have better luck posting in one of the general WordPress.org support forums. You can also try to search for it – it’s likely that there are tutorials and plugins for it.
