 * my site can be found at [http://www.empowerlagroup.com](http://www.empowerlagroup.com)
 * I would like to remove the line under the post titles – category, author, date,
   etc.
 * I might switch to the Mimbo or SimpleX theme, but generally speaking I’d like
   to know how to get rid of that line of information so my home page can look more
   like a website and less like a blog.
 * Thanks

 * hi everyone and sorry if I bothered. i am trying to build a website on my localhost
   server and i am using a wordpress template/theme. i noticed here some discussions
   about removing date, time, author and category from posts. the problem is i can`
   t figure it out and i can`t do it. i tried with some different plugins but it
   didn`t work. i also tried changing and editing different php files but the date,
   time and category still appears in the posts. can anyone help me with this matter?
   the template`s name i am using is ”Travel-5” by Ankur Mittal…
    thanks in advance!!!
