Remove dates on blog posts - studio theme

Hi there,

I’d like to remove the dates from blog posts both when they show on the main blog page and when you click in to them individually.

I’m working in the Studio theme.

Would you be able to help direct where I need to access the code in order to do this please? I don’t have coding experience but with instructions, I’d love to make this change.

Thanks

Georgina

Hey @GLCPalmer.

Thanks for reaching out.

I appreciate that you have let us know which theme you are using as that is very helpful! Looking into the Studio theme, I noticed that removing the dates on the blog posts is not available using the Theme Editor. I can certainly see the benefit of allowing you to show or hide the dates on the blog posts - so I am going to provide this as a suggestion to our developers to include. With that being said, you could make a change of coding to the theme to have it displayed as you would like.

Since the Studio theme is designed and supported by Shopify, we can use free design time for Shopify themes to allow our internal team to make the changes on your behalf.

If you are interested in using the design time, you will need to login to your store using the Contact Us page. This will allow us to securely verify you as the store owner before speaking directly with a Support Advisor about the changes you would like to see.

Let me know if you have any questions.

@GLCPalmer can you provide the url of your store?

When using BlogHandy, it’s a quick switch in the Settings to enable/disable the date or any other information, such as author, category, reading time,… I’d assume for the native Shopify blog you need to get into the theme files to change that.

I just figured out how to do this, as the above does not actually help at all.

Go to Admin > online store > theme

click on “Customize”

At the top of the page is a drop down. Scroll down to “blogs”

On the left hand column is a place where you can check or uncheck “show dates.” Uncheck it and you are set!
