 * Using a free theme and can’t find the appropriate part of code to remove the “
   author” credit at the top of each post.

 * There’s only one post up right now, under “Travels.”
 * Thank you!

 * Here is what you need.
 *     ```
       .entry-meta, .entry-meta a, .entry-footer, .entry-footer a {
       display: none;
       }
       ```
   
 * You should create a child-theme or if you aren’t going to do major customizations
   to your site you can use this plugin to enter your custom css code.

 * Still not working…
 * Here’s what I did:
 * -Clicked on your link. Downloaded, saved & uploaded. Installed.
    -Went to “Appearance”
   in the Dashboard, then “Custom CSS” -Entered the following & saved:
 * /*
    .entry-meta, .entry-meta a, .entry-footer, .entry-footer a {display: none;}*/
 * Where did I go wrong?
