* Hello, disappointed to see you aren’t supporting the classic widget anymore –
I’m trying to recreate my layout in a shortcode as advised. I need to remove
the “posted on” text, can you advise what the correct way of doing that with
a shortcode would be please? Or failing that custom css?

* Hi [@swan1305](https://wordpress.org/support/users/swan1305/),
* Well, should be pretty similar to how you did it with the classic widget. The
shortcode has a **post_html** parameter that’s the direct equivalent of the “
Post HTML Markup” field from the widget.
* For example:
* ```wp-block-code
[wpp post_html='{title} - {date}']
```
* See [Parameters](https://github.com/cabrerahector/wordpress-popular-posts/wiki/2.-Template-tags#parameters)
and [Content Tags](https://github.com/cabrerahector/wordpress-popular-posts/wiki/2.-Template-tags#content-tags)
for more details.
* If you have any further questions don’t hesitate to ask, ok?

* Think I’ve sorted this now. Am using shortcode:
[wpp range=’last24hours stats_views
=0 cat=’-123′ thumbnail_width=105 thumbnail_height=75 limit=6 stats_date=1 stats_date
=1 stats_date_format=’j F Y’ post_html=’{thumb} {title}
{date}’]…and the
custom css code:.wpp-post-title {font-size: 15px !important;font-weight: 600;}
Could you just tell me where/how to change the font size of the date please?

* I’m not near a PC now but I think the date should be wrapped in a `` tag.
Check the source code of your popular posts list to confirm. If it isn’t, wrap`{
date}` in a `` tag (eg. `{date}`) and then you should be able
to style it as you wish via CSS.
