 * I’m trying to use an Author Bio plugin that I like, but I can’t seem to find 
   a way to disable the standard author bio that appears under the keyword listings.
   Is there a way for me to turn off the default bio?
 * Thanks.
 * Here’s an example of the bio I’m talking about (Obviously it appears near the
   bottom of the page) – [http://www.deepishthoughts.com/michael-kopech-might-hit-110-mph-today/](http://www.deepishthoughts.com/michael-kopech-might-hit-110-mph-today/)

 * Hi [@hordel](https://wordpress.org/support/users/hordel/),
 * I hope you are well today and thank you for your question.
 * You can try hiding the default bio by adding the following CSS code in the Custom
   CSS option of the latest version of Sparkling theme on the below path.
 * Admin Area -> Appearance -> Customize -> Sparkling Options -> Other -> Custom
   CSS
 *     ```
       article .post-inner-content.secondary-content-box {
           display: none;
       }
       ```
   
 * Best regards,
    Vinod Dalvi
