 * I wonder if there is any way within the theme options to remove post author from
   below post title, for example removing the “by admin” in
    “Posted on July 17,
   2014 by admin in News // 0 Comments”
 * Is there any easier option than creating a child theme?
 * thanks!

 * Hello gsoundsgood,
 * thanks for using MH Magazine _lite_.
 * No sorry, for the lite version of MH Magazine there is no option for this. But
   the [premium version](http://www.mhthemes.com/themes/mh/magazine/) has options
   included to show/hide post meta data.
 * You could only hide the “admin” with some CSS, but then you’ll still have the“
   by”.
 * Regards,
    Michael

 * Hey Themes
 * Do you have a standart CSS script to remove author?
    We have some problems with
   some customers running your themes. Beacuse we are a SEO company [Deducta SEO](http://deducta-search.dk)
 * The customers really need this.

 * Sorry, it’s not really clear what you mean with _“standard CSS script”_….
 * As just mentioned, you can hide the author with some CSS, but then you’ll still
   have the “by” showing up. You can hide the author like this:
 *     ```
       .single .author {
           display: none;
       }
       ```

 * Unfortunately, the CSS option is not viable in this case for the reason you highlight(
   the “by” would remain).
 * I’ll proceed with a child theme. Thanks [@mh](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mh/)
   Themes for your support.
