Hide date and author in blog

Hi,

I am new to Sitefinity but I've used other CMS before. Can someone give me a a step-by-step on how I would hide the author and dates on blog posts? (On the blog list and on the actual blog posts)

Hello Nam,

For your convenience I have decided to record a video (video).

In general you have an access to List / Detail templates and you can modify them as you need. Also in any moment you can restore the default one.

I hope this helps.

That was very useful. It did the trick. Thank you very much. I am getting more confident about the Sitefinity CMS.

Hello,

I have the blog author hidden but when it prints, the author shows up. How do I turn this off?

Thank you,

Tess

Hi Tess. I don't get you point. What you mean when it prints? Can you please provide more information or screenshots

Thanks Vassil for the reply! Here is the live blog post. The author does not show: www.badgley.com/.../the-risky-business-of-concentrated-equity

Attached is an image of what it looks like when you print the webpage on paper. The author shows like this:

"The risky business of concentrated equity

by Chris Rios | Jul 13, 2016"

This company targets older people who like to print off the blog posts and read them on paper. I know that is silly but that is what they do. We do not want the author to show when they print the web page.

Thank you!

The problem is that you hide author block through CSS in badgley-desktop.css line 382

And this css have  media="only screen" that means when user will try to print it, it will not work. That the reason why your printed page looks terrible.

You can find more information here: http://www.w3schools.com/css/css3_mediaqueries.asp

You have two solutions. 

1) Use for this css media =only screen and print

2) Or create separate css with media="only print" for printers

Great! Thank you very much.
