    Greetigns WordPress Forums! First of all I’d like to say thanks to the WP team and contributors for creating such a great CMS and making my online life a whole lot easier. Also thanks to anyone who takes the time to read this thread and provide me with any help. It’s much appreciated.

    When viewing the following link (http://cweedband.com/v2/221/) (viewed as an individual post) I would like to have the [i]post date, posted by, posted in, and comments[/i] fields hidden and not viewable by visitors. The website is not a blog but instead it just provides simple information and is updated infrequently.

    I am using the WATT Creative Studio WordPress theme if that makes a difference. Thanks a bunch for your help!

    That theme is a theme forest theme so I can’t really look at the files without purchasing it..
    I would first look in the single.php and see if you see any code that have Post by:.. etc…

    If you do, just remove the code and see what happens – Remember to make a backup
    I prefer to make these changes via FTP and a text editor as opposed to working in the theme editor.

    If there is nothing there, then you might want to add some css to hide that section. I see that the theme uses the body_class function which is awesome. So with that, you have a class in your body called single.

    So you can use that class to hide that content which is wrapped in a div.
    The following would most likely do the trick:

    .single .entrySpec {display:none;}

    Hope this helps.

    So I had entered the code you had shared into single.php (tried in multiple locations) and each time I try viewing a solitary post I now get the error “Parse error: syntax error, unexpected.” What am I doing wrong?
