Remove date, author "posted in" from submission form page

[trailheadcreative]

On my site I would like to remove the part that has the date, the part that has “written by” and the part that has “posted in” from the event submission page. I’m guessing they are there because of the particular theme I’m using, Corporative. The page is http://foodimp.nwfpa.org/training/submitted/add … can you help? Thanks.

Trailheadcreative,
You could probably use some CSS to target these items and hide them. Try adding something like this to your stylesheet:


.tribe_community_edit .catItemDateCreated, .tribe_community_edit p.meta {
display:none !important;
}


Let me know if that does the trick!

I added this to the CSS stylesheet in the theme editor for the theme I’m using, and it didn’t do what I wanted. The “I am not an evil spammer” text and checkbox at the end did disappear though (not a good thing to hide probably).

Try pasting the following  code at the bottom of your theme’s style.css file:  https://gist.github.com/ckpicker/6705698

That’s the same code as before and I did know to put it at the end of the CSS file, not somewhere else. I went ahead and tried it again — same result. I also still have the “I am not an evil spammer” text and checkbox missing from the page, which breaks event submission.

[Casey]

The code I included here (https://gist.github.com/ckpicker/6705698) is actually slightly different. Did you use the code at the link?

[trailheadcreative]

Yes, I copied and pasted directly.

[Casey]

Ok, apparently those styles aren’t getting pulled in for some reason. Try adding this code to your theme’s functions.php file and see if that works: https://gist.github.com/ckpicker/6715665

[trailheadcreative]

OK. Will put that in functions.php and the other code back into style.css and see if it helps.

[Casey]

You should be able to remove the styles from your stylesheet and only include the code from the last link I posted. Let me know if that does the trick! Thanks!

[trailheadcreative]

Casey, that worked! Thanks.

There’s still one little issue. The checkbox at the end that says, “I am not an evil spammer” still is not there, but I will wait until your new update to Community Events comes out unless there is something I should do now to correct that.

[Casey]

Great! I’m actually seeing that checkbox on my end (screenshot: http://d.pr/i/IWbb), since I’m not logged in. The checkbox will only display for non-logged-in users. Hope that helps!

[trailheadcreative]

That makes sense. I guess it realizes that a logged-in admin is not a spammer. 🙂
Guess you can close the thread. Thanks for all your help. Your support has been awesome.
