I can’t believe I made it to the next step considering I know nothing about php. Thanks esmi!
For the sake of others who might be reading this, when esmi referred to customizing, as it customizing myself i.e. put some effort into it and don’t just expect the code edits to be handed to me (though most of it has anyway). All I did was delete the thing I didn’t want. In this case, the “Post to” text on the second line:
<span class="sep">Posted on </span>Note I took everything from the opening to the closing span tag.
Thanks again everyone!
Ah! See that is what has been missing from the other posts. They have been saying to edit the functions.php file but even though the user made a child page, it was never discussed to make a blank functions.php file inside the child directory and then instruct the main funcions.php file (the one in the parent them directory) what to do and what not to do.
So here is my status; I’ve created a blank functions.php file inside the child theme directory with opening/closing php tags. Then I copied and pasted the code I believe I need to get rid of in order to get rid of “Post on” text that appears on the web page and commented it out like so:
<?php /* if ( ! function_exists( 'twentyeleven_posted_on' ) ) : /** * Prints HTML with meta information for the current post-date/time and author. * Create your own twentyeleven_posted_on to override in a child theme * * @since Twenty Eleven 1.0 /* REMOVED BY FLASHMAN function twentyeleven_posted_on() { printf( __( '<span class="sep">Posted on </span><a href="%1$s" title="%2$s" rel="bookmark"><time class="entry-date" datetime="%3$s">%4$s</time></a><span class="by-author"> <span class="sep"> by </span> <span class="author vcard"><a class="url fn n" href="%5$s" title="%6$s" rel="author">%7$s</a></span></span>', 'twentyeleven' ), esc_url( get_permalink() ), esc_attr( get_the_time() ), esc_attr( get_the_date( 'c' ) ), esc_html( get_the_date() ), esc_url( get_author_posts_url( get_the_author_meta( 'ID' ) ) ), esc_attr( sprintf( __( 'View all posts by %s', 'twentyeleven' ), get_the_author() ) ), get_the_author() ); } endif; */ ?>My site didn’t break this time but the post info is still there. did I do that correctly? Perhaps there is another file that the Post on is being called from? Would I edit it in the same manner as the functions.php file?

In reply to: Locked Out of Self Hosted WP SiteI’ve gotten in touch with my hosting company; GoDaddy and they spotted a password in the config file that was not the same as the one I used to get into the mySQL. Once I updated that through their FTP/File Manager, I was able to see my login page and log into the site. Mission accomplished.

In reply to: Locked Out of Self Hosted WP SiteFair enough. Thanks for your patience.

In reply to: Locked Out of Self Hosted WP SiteThanks ESMI but I thought that’s what I did. Is there a particular part of that page I should look at? I already updated the mySQLadmin part; I thought from that change it would come right up.
