This post will show you how to remove author and date from your WordPress posts using additional CSS.

To remove author and date, add additional CSS that sets .entry-meta to display: none. Then click on publish.

If this was confusing, follow the step-by-step instructions below:

  1. Go to Dashboard

2. Go Click on Appearance, then customize

3. Click on Additional CSS and copy paste the following CSS

.entry-meta .byline, .entry-meta .cat-links { display: none; }
.entry-meta .posted-on { display: none; }

4. Click on publish

5. Refresh the page. If you still see the date and author, add a ?1 at the end of the URL to bust the cache and you will see the post without date and author.
