How can I remove author and date tags from my blog posts?

Topic summary

Goal: hide author and publication date text across a Shopify blog.

Actions taken:

  • Added CSS in main.css to hide the metadata on the homepage and individual posts:
    • .article p.text-theme-light.reading-width.mx-auto.text-center { display: none; }
    • .slider__grid .flex-auto p.text-theme-light.mb-0 { display: none; }
  • Remaining issue on the blog landing page (blogs/news) was fixed by adding another selector:
    • .flex-auto p.text-theme-light.mb-0 { display: none; }

Notes:

  • Screenshots were used to illustrate where author (“Tim Donovan”) and April dates appeared on collection and individual views; they helped confirm which templates still showed metadata.
  • The solution relies on CSS selectors targeting paragraph elements with the class text-theme-light within specific containers (article, slider__grid, flex-auto).

Outcome:

  • After applying the additional CSS for the blog landing page, the author and date tags were successfully removed across all views.
  • Status: resolved; no further open questions.

Add This Css in Your edit Code > main.css File

.article p.text-theme-light.reading-width.mx-auto.text-center {
    display: none;
}
.slider__grid .flex-auto p.text-theme-light.mb-0 {
    display: none;
}

Thank you @Raj-WebDesigne ! That solved the problem on my homepage and for my individual blog posts. However, it didn’t fix the problem for my blog’s landing page linked here. Any idea as to how I could fix this?
