    I know there are other topics on the forum about this but i am an absolute begininer so if anyone knows in really basic terms that would be an amazing help.

    Please let me know,

    …i was just wondering where exactly i should be putting the code?

    Sorry, I don’t know anything about CSS customization. Perhaps another volunteer will be able to address that question properly. Or you may add a “modlook” tag to the sidebar of this topic to call for staff attention.

  • Hi there!

    CSS code can and in most cases, does vary by theme, so using code that was meant for another theme (like in this case) most probably won’t work for yours. :)

    The following code will remove category links under posts from the home page, as well as from individual post pages:

    p.cat-links {
    	display: none;
    }
    
    .single .entry-info{
    	display: none;
    }

    You need to paste this code in the CSS section of Customizer. Go to Dashboard > Customize > CSS, remove all the existing text, paste the code above and save.

    Do note, you need the Premium or Business plan to save CSS customizations.

    Thanks for that correction, which I’ve noted.

  • hi everyone thanks very much for your help, i don’t have a premium or business plan to save the css customisations-anything else i can do?

  • @musicdoc1, ah no problem at all, we all get to learn something new here.

    @carry222, not possible to do CSS customizations if you don’t have the Custom Design upgrade. Since you have an old account, you might be able to buy it individually. Since late 2014, it only comes with Premium/Business plans.
