Choose what to display in post detail – date, likes, comments, categories…

Hi,
Is it possible to choose which facts about a post you will like to show? In this picture I have marked the facts I’m talking about. I will like to get rid of Category, comments and likes.

I hope you can help me.
Regards Mie

Hi Mie,

To do that, you will have to update the code which outputs them, but don’t panic ;) it will be easy.

The original code can be found in the following file:
wp-content/themes/multicorp/assets/functions/theme-plugin-functions.php

More precisely line 563 to 656

function ishyoboy_get_single_post_details()
{
	...
}

function ishyoboy_get_single_post_details()

{

...

}

You have to copy this function and paste it into your child theme’s “functions.php” file. We have provided a starter child theme ready for you. Child theme’s are good for separating the changes you do from the original theme so you will not loose them once we release a new update for the theme. Read more about them here:

What is a child theme and how, but mainly why to use it?

So once you have the function copied, you can update the code and decide whether to display the likes, comments, categories, tags, etc..

Cheers

Hi again,
Thank you for quick reply.
I’m not that experienced in WordPress, so can you please tell me where to find the files you are talking about. Can you please send me some screen dumps on how to do it?

Thank you in advance.

Hey,

The files are either on your hosting provider’s server (we guess you can access them via FTP). Or if you unzip the archive you used to install the theme then right in the folder multicorp you need to navigate to this file:

assets/functions/theme-plugin-functions.php

So enter the assets folder, enter the functions folder, etc..

The starter child theme is provided in the ZIP file you downloaded from ThemeForest. So if you have not installed and activated it as suggested in the “First Steps” section of the documentation during the initial theme setup, now is the time!

To edit the child-theme’s functions.php file you need to navigate to “Appearance, Editor, then make sure to choose the child theme and not the parent one, then edit thee Theme Functions file.” Or do it manually on your computer and overwrite the file via FTP.

Cheers
