Hello all,

I am new to Sitefinity and very happy to find this resource!

We are using Sitefinity 6.3. I am posting press releases using the News content item and would like to know if there is a way to hide the Author field and possibly date, from the posted content. Right now it looks a little silly repeating the author and the date. Is there a way to hid or remove? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Hello Michael,

Thank you for contacting us.

You can easily remove author and publication date of news items by editing the template for News widget or applying a new widget template.

The code that needs to be removed from the news widget template is:

<asp:Literal Text="<%$ Resources:Labels, By %>" runat="server" />

<sf:PersonProfileView runat="server" /> | <sf:FieldListView ID="PublicationDate" runat="server" Format="PublicationDate.ToLocal():MMM dd, yyyy" />

In order to edit or create a widget template, you need to navigate to Design > Widget Templates and open the template you wish to edit. Then find the code above and remove it.

Here is a link to Sitefinity documentation for creating and editing widget templates.

Hope this is useful for you.
