• Hey, this is a long going problem with wordpress.

    Blog post “By” dont have class or id. You cannot remove it or replace the name with css. Please can wordpress add:

    <p class=”posted-by”>By<p>
    <p class=”meta-posted-by”>Published by</p>

    Or similar to source code?

    That way we can hide or rename that by to Written by or Published at or Created or another localisation names via css replace.

    Now only way to rename it is to go localisation files with poedit and replace the name and save a new mo file.

    And when new them update comes the edited localisation file gets overwritten. and whole process again.

    If they could have class we can display new post name like this:

    .post p {
    display: none;
    }
    .post:after {
    content: ‘Created by’;
    }`

    I recommend asking at your theme’s dedicated support forum so its developers and support community can help you with this.

    Its wordpress problem. WordPress dont have any control on blog meta appearance. If we could define at wordpress settings How we describe our post meta data would be helpfull.

    Till example:

    Definde blog meta data:

    Defalt: By “Author”
    Default: “Published by”

    Use custom instead

    <p class=”posted-by”>By<p>
    <p class=”meta-posted-by”>Published by</p>

    Those phrases “By” and “Published By” are from your theme, not WordPress. WordPress does not generate any such “default” phases!

    Anyways its wordpress problem because its with any theme out there. Also firms dont need publish author name, Only Published | time.

    Altho we found workaround for now to get that look we would like to see wordpress taggle this issue and add blog meta options in wordpress.
