Introduction
Hide author and date in blog posts is a common customization request when you want a cleaner reading experience in BuddyBoss. BuddyBoss does not include a built-in option to hide this metadata, but you can easily remove the author and date from blog posts using a simple CSS snippet.
Custom Workaround
- Go to your WordPress admin dashboard
- Navigate to BuddyBoss > Theme Options
- Under Custom Codes, enable CSS
- Add the following CSS:
.single-post .entry-meta {
display: none;
}- Save your changes
Troubleshooting and FAQs
Q: The author and date are still visible. What should I check?
A: Clear your site cache, including any caching plugin or CDN. Also make sure the CSS was pasted correctly and that the CSS option is enabled before saving.
Q: Will this affect blog archive or category pages?
A: No. This CSS only targets single blog post pages and does not affect archive, category, or tag listings.
Q: Can I hide only the author or only the date instead of both?
A: Yes. You would need to target the specific CSS class for the author or date instead of the entire .entry-meta container.
Q: Who can I contact if I need further help?
A: You can submit a support ticket through your BuddyBoss account dashboard for personalized assistance.
