    The first thing you’ll want to know is that what CSS you’ll need to use will depend on which theme you’re using. CSS setup for one theme won’t work in an another.

    To learn how to find the right CSS selectors for your theme, you might like this guide:

    You can hide the post author in the Tuned Balloon theme by adding the following CSS to your Appearance > Customize > CSS editor:

    .entry-header .genericon-user,
    .entry-header .author {
    	display: none;
    }
