 * Do you know how to disable the metadata (“by [name] and date”) under the volunteer
   title? I don’t want to disable it for the whole site since I would like this 
   data visible on regular posts.

 * Thanks for reaching out [@rleegarrison](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rleegarrison/).
   The metadata you’re referring to (“by [name] and date”) shouldn’t show up in 
   the list of volunteer opportunities. Are you showing the opportunities using 
   either the `[one_time_volunteer_opps]` or `[flexible_volunteer_opps]` shortcode
   on a page? If so, the template doesn’t include that metadata. If not, I’d encourage
   you to use one of the shortcodes to display them on a page.
 * I hope that’s helpful. Let me know how it goes.

 * I mean for the individual opportunities. For example [http://mhqsf.org/volunteer-opportunity/2016-fall-carnival/](http://mhqsf.org/volunteer-opportunity/2016-fall-carnival/)

 * Thanks for clarifying [@rleegarrison](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rleegarrison/).
   That information is controlled by your theme’s template files. In order to adjust
   it for only volunteer opportunities, you’ll need to duplicate your default content
   template file within your theme’s folder, usually called single.php, and name
   the copy `single-volunteer_opp.php` within your theme. Then simply delete the
   line that outputs the metadata.
 * Unfortunately, this requires some knowledge of WordPress files, and some very
   basic coding experience.
 * Good luck and let me know what else I can do to help.

 * Sorry for the delay in replying!
 * Fortunately, I have knowledge of WordPress files and basic coding knowledge.

   it!

 * That’s great to hear [@rleegarrison](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rleegarrison/)!
   I’m glad you got it figured out.
 * If you wouldn’t mind, it would be great if you could leave an honest review of
   the plugin at [https://wordpress.org/support/view/plugin-reviews/wired-impact-volunteer-management](https://wordpress.org/support/view/plugin-reviews/wired-impact-volunteer-management).
   Since the plugin is so new reviews are extremely helpful.
 * Have a good one.
 * Jonathan
