    Hey,

    I’ve just set up the Digg 2 column theme – http://www.wpdesigner.com/2007/01/10/digg-wordpress-theme/

    I want to remove the Meta part on the sidebar but it’s not in the widget’s section and I’m not good with technical stuff so I don’t want to start playing about in the theme editor.

    Can anyone tell me if it’s possible to remove the Meta part from the sidebar entirely on this theme?

    Thanks a lot 🙂

    If your theme doesn’t use widgets, you’ll have to edit the sidebar.php.

    Hi,

    Yeah I thought I might need to do that, however, I’m not too confident in my ability to do it, I’d probably mess something up.

    Could anyone tell me exactly what parts I need to edit in the sidebar.php?

    I can post the code here if nobody has any experience with this theme.

    Thanks a lot.

    Just ‘trial and error’ a little, you’ll learn fast enough 🙂
    You need to get rid of something like this:
    <?php _e('Meta:'); ?>
    Be sure to delete the code from the opening <? to the closing ?> and if some additional code is there (like <li id="meta"? or something), you no longer need that too. Just skip it, see if your site didn’t break and if the changes are there. If all is fine, all is fine, if not, undo the changes have have a closer look.
