Hi, is there a way of adding the author name to the blog overview view? Remove tags being displayed and replace with the author name?

Thanks!

Hi kenny60sl,

You need to override the function “ishyoboy_get_masonry_post_details()” which can be found inside the file:
wp-content/themes/kopy/assets/functions/theme-plugin-functions.php

The current code is:

function ishyoboy_get_masonry_post_details()
	{

		global $post, $authordata;
		if ( !is_object( $authordata ) ){
			if ( isset( $post->post_author ) ){
				$authordata = get_userdata( $post->post_author );
			}
		}

		$return = '';

		$return .= '<div class="ish-blog-post-details">';

		$return .= '<span>';
		// Icon & Date
		// $return .= __('Posted:', 'ishyoboy') . ' ';
		$return .= '<a href="' . get_day_link(get_post_time('Y'), get_post_time('m'), get_post_time('j')) . '">' . get_the_time(get_option('date_format')) . '</a>';
		$return .= '</span>';

		//Author
		/*if ( is_object( $authordata ) ) {
			$return .= '<span class="ish-spacer">.</span>';
			$return .= '<a href="' . get_author_posts_url( $authordata->ID ). '">' . get_the_author() . '</a>' . '</span>';
		}*/

		// Likes
		/*$return .= '<span class="ish-spacer">.</span>';
		$return .= '<span>' . ishyoboy_get_likes(false) . '</span>';*/

		// Comments
		/*$return .= '<span class="ish-spacer">.</span>';
		$return .= '<span>' . '<a href="' . get_comments_link() . '">' . get_comments_number_text('0 ' . __('Comments', 'ishyoboy'), '1 ' . __('Comment', 'ishyoboy') , '% ' . __('Comments', 'ishyoboy')) . '</a>' . '</span>';*/

		// Categories
		if ( has_category() ){

			$return .= '<span class="ish-spacer">.</span>';
			//$return .= '<span>' . __('Categories:', 'ishyoboy') . ' ';

			$terms = get_the_terms(get_the_ID(), 'category');

			if ( isset( $terms ) && '' != $terms ) {
				$i = 0;
				foreach ( $terms as $term ) {
					$i++;
					if ( 1 != $i ) {
						$return .= ', ';
					}
					$return .= '<a href="' . esc_attr( get_term_link( $term ) ) . '">' . $term->name . '</a>';
					if ( 1 <= $i ) {
						// Break to display only first N category
						break;
					}
				}
			}

			// $return .= '</span>';
		}

		// Tags
		if ( has_tag() ){

			$return .= '<span class="ish-spacer">.</span>';

			$terms = get_the_terms(get_the_ID(), 'post_tag');

			if ( isset( $terms ) && '' != $terms ) {
				$i = 0;
				foreach ( $terms as $term ) {
					$i++;
					if ( 1 != $i ) {
						$return .= ', ';
					}
					$return .= '<a href="' . esc_attr( get_term_link( $term ) ) . '">' . '#' . $term->name . '</a>';
					if ( 1 <= $i ) {
						// Break to display only first N tags
						break;
					}
				}
			}

			// $return .= '</span>';
		}

		// Permalink
		//$return	.=  '<div><span>' . '<a href="' . get_the_permalink() . '"><i class="ish-icon-export-1"></i></a>' . '</span></div>';

		$return .= '</div>';

		return $return;
	}

function ishyoboy_get_masonry_post_details()

{

global $post, $authordata;

if ( !is_object( $authordata ) ){

if ( isset( $post->post_author ) ){

$authordata = get_userdata( $post->post_author );

}

$return = '';

$return .= '

$return .= '';

// Icon & Date

// $return .= __('Posted:', 'ishyoboy') . ' ';

$return .= ' . get_day_link(get_post_time('Y'), get_post_time('m'), get_post_time('j')) . '">' . get_the_time(get_option('date_format')) . '';

$return .= '';

//Author

/*if ( is_object( $authordata ) ) {

$return .= '.';

$return .= '' . get_the_author() . '' . '';

}*/

// Likes

/*$return .= '.';

$return .= '' . ishyoboy_get_likes(false) . '';*/

// Comments

/*$return .= '.';

$return .= '' . '' . get_comments_number_text('0 ' . __('Comments', 'ishyoboy'), '1 ' . __('Comment', 'ishyoboy') , '% ' . __('Comments', 'ishyoboy')) . '' . '';*/

// Categories

if ( has_category() ){

$return .= '.';

//$return .= '' . __('Categories:', 'ishyoboy') . ' ';

$terms = get_the_terms(get_the_ID(), 'category');

if ( isset( $terms ) && '' != $terms ) {

$i = 0;

foreach ( $terms as $term ) {

$i++;

if ( 1 != $i ) {

$return .= ', ';

}

$return .= ' . esc_attr( get_term_link( $term ) ) . '">' . $term->name . '';

if ( 1 <= $i ) {

// Break to display only first N category

break;

}

// $return .= '';

}

// Tags

if ( has_tag() ){

$return .= '.';

$terms = get_the_terms(get_the_ID(), 'post_tag');

if ( isset( $terms ) && '' != $terms ) {

$i = 0;

foreach ( $terms as $term ) {

$i++;

if ( 1 != $i ) {

$return .= ', ';

}

$return .= ' . esc_attr( get_term_link( $term ) ) . '">' . '#' . $term->name . '';

if ( 1 <= $i ) {

// Break to display only first N tags

break;

}

// $return .= '';

}

// Permalink

//$return .= '

' . '' . '

$return .= '

return $return;

}

So just paste it to functions.php of your child theme and make the changes you need.
For removing tags only comment out part of code under “// Tags”:

/*if ( has_tag() ){

	$return .= '<span class="ish-spacer">.</span>';

	$terms = get_the_terms(get_the_ID(), 'post_tag');

	if ( isset( $terms ) && '' != $terms ) {
		$i = 0;
		foreach ( $terms as $term ) {
			$i++;
			if ( 1 != $i ) {
				$return .= ', ';
			}
			$return .= '<a href="' . esc_attr( get_term_link( $term ) ) . '">' . '#' . $term->name . '</a>';
			if ( 1 <= $i ) {
				// Break to display only first N tags
				break;
			}
		}
	}

	// $return .= '</span>';
}*/

/*if ( has_tag() ){

$return .= '.';

$terms = get_the_terms(get_the_ID(), 'post_tag');

if ( isset( $terms ) && '' != $terms ) {

$i = 0;

foreach ( $terms as $term ) {

$i++;

if ( 1 != $i ) {

$return .= ', ';

}

$return .= '' . '#' . $term->name . '';

if ( 1 <= $i ) {

// Break to display only first N tags

break;

}

// $return .= '';

}*/

And remove comment from author code:

if ( is_object( $authordata ) ) {
	$return .= '<span class="ish-spacer">.</span>';
	$return .= '<a href="' . get_author_posts_url( $authordata->ID ). '">' . get_the_author() . '</a>' . '</span>';
}

if ( is_object( $authordata ) ) {

$return .= '.';

$return .= ' . get_author_posts_url( $authordata->ID ). '">' . get_the_author() . '' . '';

}

Cheers
