For whatever reason, even when I have excerpts disabled in theme options, they are still showing (via simple layout). How do I fix this?

That’s the thing I’ve been trying to say — even when excerpts are disabled, they still show up. I browsed through the theme code and it looks like they are hardcoded in and also with a set excerpt length. This needs to be fixed?

Any update on this?

I see that, but in your theme options panel it has option to turn excerpts off or on. The way this is coded above, there is no way to honor those settings — it is always “on”. Does this mean the theme options panel for excerpt is not functional?

I need to be able to turn it off or on and;

I would like to be able to have it pull manual excerpts if they are entered in the post as opposed to just truncating the story.

Thanks,

Any word on this?

That did the trick. Thank you!

Ahhh, I figured it out — the Purify plug-in for mobile Safari was blocking those elements for some reason. Both are fine now. My apologies.

My site is behind http auth protection while it is being built. Where can I send you username and password privately?

I have tried this but the theme is still cutting off the excerpts the same way as before…

In browsing the blog simple no sidebar template, I see this line:

<?php pixelwars_theme_excerpt_max_charlength( 55 ); ?>

It seems like this cannot be overridden? Any other suggestions?

Thanks,

UPDATE – Turns out it’s the live preview on the WP customizer that was doing it somehow.

Now it is a single line through the icons. However, there is still a horizontal line below the icons. How do I get rid of that?

Thanks,

As info, I was able to get most of the meta removed by using this CSS through trial and error. Please let me know if it’s proper or if there’s a more efficient way of doing it:

.single-post .comment-link { display: none; }
.single-post .read-time { display: none; }
.blog-simple .comment-link { display: none; }
.blog-simple .read-time { display: none; }

Thanks!

Alternatively, is there also a way to just show the date and remove everything else on the meta line?

P.S. I was able to remove the horizontal line after the logo by using:

.site-header { border-bottom: 0px }

Stil have yet how to figure how to hide the footer area lines?
