    Hi there, I have an extensive Press Release section where the post titles need to link directly to an external link (a PDF download). Need some advise on how to do the following (apologies for the many questions) :

    1 – To link the titles to a PDF article, I am using the Post link format using the Single author, Small preview style. How do I not display images totally in this blog style? Even if I don’t add a featured image, a blank image box still shows (or if I select single author, big preview, there is a space allocated for the image on the left). How do I remove this completely but only for this style as I am using other styles on other pages like masonry.

    2 – I want to remove the Author and Category meta infos but still show the Date for this post format/style only. I tried adding this css,
    span.entry-author-link{display:none;} but the the “/ by /” still shows. How do I do this?

    3 – I would like to show the date to the left instead of an image, is it possible to design this specific blog style differently using css? Am trying to achieve the look below.

    Appreciate some help/advise, thank you.

    Hi janicenisha!

    Sorry about the delayed response.

    1. It seems that you resolved this on your end.

    2. Please insert the following css into your custom css section:

    .text-sep-date {
	display: none !important;
}

.blog-categories {
	display: none !important;
}

.text-sep-cat {
	display: none !important;
}

.blog-author {
	display: none !important;
}

    3. This will require custom code that is outside of the scope of support. You can enlist the aid of a freelancer in order to implement this change to the layout.

    Cheers!

    Hi Dake,

    Thank you, they worked :) However I haven’t solved number 1, I am just using Single author, Big preview now but there is still a space on the left allocated for a non existing image. How do I remove this space?

    For no 3, noted, however could you help indicate which css element to include to edit the date? So I can change text size and color? And maybe shift the position too? Also which css element can i use to put a border around each post in this category?

    Thank you very much!

    Hi Yigit,

    Thanks a lot. Am trying to achieve something like this http://nichestudio.my/printscreen-news.jpg

    So far I have got it to look like the link in the private link, any idea how to get the image on the left and text inline? Also how can I make the space on the top and bottom of the boxes narrower? The css I am using doesn’t work.

    If i set height in px it does, but then the mobile view gets messed up. If I use percentage, it doesn’t pick up.
    div.entry-content-wrapper.clearfix.link-content{
    height:50%;}

    Appreciate the help, thanks.

    Hi Yigit,

    Thanks so much! Everything works great. Just one last question, how do I lessen the space in between each post?

    Thanks again, much appreciated.

    Hi!

    The problem on that area is for your image, I removed it for testing and it gets fixed:

    I think best option would be to do some theme file modification to make it look properly and for mobiles also.

    Hi Basilis,

    Thank you sorry for the delayed reply, I have overlooked this section.

    I have a related question, is there a way to show author on certain tyoe of blog posts and hide on others?

    I have one category which I want to show the author and one category on grid which I want to hide the authors.

    The css below hides the author from all posts. Is there a way to do this by category?
    .blog-author {
    display: none !important;
    }

    Thank you!
