NEED HELP removing Info Tags

  • My site is: https://www.brandongaudin.com

    Yes, I have a www.ads-software.com blog and not a .com.

    I used the “Digg 3 Column” template.

    I want to remove all of the tags at the top and bottom of a blog post COMPLETELY. I don’t want anything to show. I want the “Posted by..” and “Filed Under” info gone.

    I’ve tried several things but nothing has worked. It’s still there.

    Here is the complete style-sheet for your review. Anyone that can help would be my hero..and would save my computer from a meeting with a sledge-hammer. Thanks!!!

    so i guess zero responses in 24 hours means nobody has a clue??…..

    Open the index.php file for the theme..

    Find and Remove

    <div class="postinfo">
<?php _e('Posted on'); ?> <span class="postdate"><?php the_time('F jS, Y') ?></span> <?php _e('by'); ?> <?php the_author() ?> <?php edit_post_link('Edit', ' | ', ''); ?>
				</div>

    Further down in the file Find and Remove

    <p class="postinfo">
<?php _e('Filed under:'); ?> <?php the_category(', ') ?> | <?php comments_popup_link('No Comments »', '1 Comment »', '% Comments »'); ?>
					</p>

    Following the above you will remove the “Posted On” info and “Filed Under” info from your front page.

    Thanks, but when I did that, this is all that shows up on my website:

    Fatal error: Call to undefined function get_header() in /home/brandoq5/public_html/index.php on line 1

    Oh no – now I re-installed the original index.php file but I’m still getting the same error message (above).

    and my website won’t come up at all…please help!!!!

    THANK YOU IN ADVANCE

    The index.php file is supposed to go in the theme folder, not in the root of your site.

    The root directory has its own index.php, which is only like 4 lines long. Put that back into the root from a fresh WordPress download.
