Remove description from category list

[Russell]

Hi,

I’d like to remove the description, date and comments from the category list.
How do I do that? I looked in category.php for Boss but it wasn’t obvious.

Thanks!

@russellmiller about line 871 of theme-functions.php tells you to copy the function to your child theme and edit it there. Enjoy 🙂

thanks TJ, I see where to get the meta info, but where do I find the function that has shows the first few lines as a summary? Doesn’t seem to be in this function:

function buddyboss_entry_meta($show_author = true, $show_date = true , $show_comment_info = true) {
// Translators: used between list items, there is a space after the comma.
$categories_list = get_the_category_list( __( ‘, ‘, ‘boss’ ) );

// Translators: used between list items, there is a space after the comma.
$tag_list = get_the_tag_list( ”, __( ‘, ‘, ‘boss’ ) );

$date = sprintf( ‘<time class=”entry-date” datetime=”%3$s” pubdate>%4$s</time></span>’,
esc_url( get_permalink() ),
esc_attr( get_the_time() ),
esc_attr( get_the_date( ‘c’ ) ),
esc_html( get_the_date() )
);

$author = sprintf( ‘<span class=”author vcard”>%3$s</span>’,
esc_url( get_author_posts_url( get_the_author_meta( ‘ID’ ) ) ),
esc_attr( sprintf( __( ‘View all posts by %s’, ‘boss’ ), get_the_author() ) ),
get_the_author()
);

if (function_exists(‘get_avatar’)) {
$avatar = sprintf( ‘%2$s‘,
esc_url( get_permalink() ),
get_avatar( get_the_author_meta(’email’), 55 )
);
}

if($show_author) {
echo ‘<span class=”post-author”>’;
echo $avatar;
echo $author;
echo ‘</span>’;
}

if($show_date) {
echo $date;
}

if($show_comment_info) {
if ( comments_open() ) : ?>
<!– reply link –>
<span class=”comments-link fa fa-comment-o”>
<?php comments_popup_link( ‘<span class=”leave-reply”>’ . __( ‘0 comments’, ‘boss’ ) . ‘</span>’, __( ‘1 comment’, ‘boss’ ), __( ‘% comments’, ‘boss’ ) ); ?>
</span><!– .comments-link –>
<?php endif; // comments_open()
}

}
endif;

Also, can you tell me where I can find the post title in the category list template?
I would like to make each post title a link.

@russellmiller sorry, content.php is the file to edit I believe. Line 25 has is_archive in the if statement, you may want to add another if statement to include only archive so you don’t edit the home page or search page.
