 * I’d like to be able to hide the author at the beginning of a post. “Published
   by… ” but not the date. Thanks !

 * Thanks for choosing Ignite!
 * There is an option for this in the “Post Meta” section in the Customizer (Appearance
   > Customize). You’ll see a setting to turn off the author display above the post
   title that you can set to “hide”. This will leave the date displayed.

 * Ooops, of course, I knew it was there somewhere, I missed it.
