@sonyalee,
Next to the instructor’s name, it has the date Nov. 25, 2018. That’s the date I created the course. I want the dates removed from my courses because I want the courses to be evergreen with no date associated.
That sounds like your theme is treating LifterLMS courses like blog posts — we don’t list the course creation date like that in the core but we see a lot of themes that don’t fully support LifterLMS have dates showing up like this on courses.
It’s hard to say how to change it because it really depends greatly on your theme. The simplest solution would be to hide it with some CSS.
A better solution would be to contact the theme developers (or review their docs) to see if they have any options or settings for this.
Finally, you could grab a theme that supports LifterLMS natively — Astra and OceanWP are two great (free) themes that natively support LifterLMS.
Also, how can I get information to appear under “course information” and “course instructor”? I’m sure there’s a setting but I can’t seem to find it.
Course Information is linked to your settings under the “Course Options” and your course tags, categories, etc…
The instructor information is linked to your WP User Profile. EG: The bio is your user bio found on Users -> My Profile (on the admin panel).
You can modify some of that (like the “label” for the instructor / author) in the “Instructors” area of your course settings.
Hope that helps,
Woops — if you want to go with CSS to hide the date post a link to your course so I can check it out and get some CSS that’ll work on your theme!
here is the link to my course: [ moved to first post ]
i’m using the divi theme.
see screenshot here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1yp6MOMvsNrCIhPP7r3EqH1oSOfKsX99o/view?usp=sharing
I want to change “author” to say “instructor.” <—i was able to change this.
I want to add info under the headings that I circled in red. I can’t find the settings for those areas. FYI, i don’t have any categories or tags set for my courses. i wasn’t planning to use any categories or tags. Do i need to?

@sonyalee,
You could use this CSS to hide the date
.single-lesson .et_post_meta_wrapper .post-meta,
.single-course .et_post_meta_wrapper .post-meta {
display: none;
}
Add custom css via the customizer: https://lifterlms.com/docs/add-custom-css-using-wordpress-customizer/
NOTE: I wrote CSS to hide the whole “meta information” area. I can’t figure out how to hide the “|” characters between the meta information elements that Divi outputs. This is the best I can do. Contact Divi for a better solution if this doesn’t satisfy your requirements, please!
I want to add info under the headings that I circled in red. I can’t find the settings for those areas.
Categories, tags, and tracks are output here. There’s no settings. You just add them and they show up.
The other piece of information is the course “length” which is configured under the course options in the course settings (at the bottom of your course edit screen).
If you want to hide the “Course Information” title because you don’t want to display any course meta information you can do so with the LifterLMS Labs Action Manager: https://lifterlms.com/docs/lab-action-manager/
FYI, i don’t have any categories or tags set for my courses. i wasn’t planning to use any categories or tags. Do i need to?
No, you don’t have to.
Since I haven’t heard back from you in a while I’m going to mark this topic resolved. If you need some more help here please just reply and I’ll reopen it and get back to work.
Best,
