    I can’t ascertain which element you want to hide the top of the post, but to hide the entry-meta at the bottom you described, you can use the following CSS rule in a child theme stylesheet or jetpack custom CSS module (or other plugin that provides a similar feature)

    footer.entry-meta{
    	display:none
    }

    Cubecolour, thanks for the tip! Worked like a charm for hiding the footer meta.

    My other question was in regard to the “full meta tags” being displayed at the very top of the post, above the header.

    I recently updated to 3.6.1 and the “metadata” boxes seemed to be newly added in this release and whatever I enter into the “full meta tags” box is appearing right at the top of the page (see the link above).

    Previously, I had just been entering info into the “tags” box (which is still there and which I still use) as well as the “all in one SEO pack” plug in.

    Seems like a lot of meta info redundancy, no?

    I guess I’m trying to figure out 1. if there’s a way to hide the “full meta tags” being displayed at the top of the posts and/or 2. if I even need to put anything in there since I’m entering info into the “tags” and “all in one SEO” plug in.

    I do want to have these posts show up in search engines, of course. I just don’t want it to look messy and cluttered with the metadata.

    Apologies if this is a newbie question, I’m learning as I go…

    And thanks again.

    If you look at the source of the page you can see this

    <!-- BEGIN Metadata added by Add-Meta-Tags WordPress plugin -->
    ...
    <meta name="news_keywords" content="Gangster Pictures: BUGSY, GOMORRAH, & STAND UP GUYS Movie Reviews" />
    Gangster Pictures, BUGSY, GOMORRAH, STAND UP GUYS, Movie Review, The Cutting Room Movie Podcast, Warren Beatty, Gang movies, mob, classic, best, free, Garrone, Barry Levinson
    <meta name="google-site-verification" content="WibqkgbZ8Gu844aT2BfGP0xdw5Y9w9UemaDsEPHN294" />...
    <!-- END Metadata added by Add-Meta-Tags WordPress plugin -->

    If you look at the middle line, it is not enclosed within any tags, so it looks like the Add-Meta-Tags plugin may be injecting that text directly into the document body, and there is no id or class we can target to hide with CSS rules. This is somewhat unusual and I doubt that it is the intended behaviour of the plugin, so to be able to remove/hide that text you should post a support question on the forum for that plugin at https://www.ads-software.com/support/plugin/add-meta-tags where the developer and other users of the plugin should see it.

    Ah. I just de-activated the plug-in. Not worth figuring out what the issue is, I think. I never had any trouble with the All In One SEO plug in and it seems to be doing a fine job on its own.

    Thanks again for your help and taking the time to respond! Greatly appreciated.
