REMOVE Calendar Icon from ‘Post’ and Date when it was created

Hello @dorekpl,

I hope you’re doing good today!

These items are actually not part of Forminator plugin, and as a rule they can be adjusted in your theme settings, or by applying custom CSS.

1. how to remove the calendar icon on the RIGHT side of the screen?

The Calendar widget usually can be found in Appearance >> Widgets section.

2. how to remove the date of posting and post in “uncategorized’?

Adding this to your theme’s CSS should help hiding the items:

.entry-meta, .postmetadata {
  display: none;
}

– you can apply this in your theme options, or in Customize >> Additional CSS.

If that doesn’t help, please check this further with the theme support, or create a thread in this forum, to get help from the WordPress community:

Hey Dmytro,

2. how to remove the date of posting and post in “uncategorized’?

Thank you so much a date and a few other details are gone.

1. how to remove the calendar icon on the RIGHT side of the screen?

Calendar is still there ?? HOW TO REMOVE IT

I checked Appearance >> Widgets?section and under there is see things like (Main sidebar right,secondary sidebar right,footersidebar,singel sidebar1,left footer sidebar1, middle footer sidebar 2,right footer sidebar 3,and inactive wages

Please, just icons under each category with ‘+’

Someone on youtube posted this but I tried adding it to CSS and it doesn’t work either:

function remove_calendar_widget ( )  {

unregister_widget ( ‘WP_Widget_Calendar ’ ) ;

}

add_action ( ‘widgets_init ’ , ‘ remove_calendar_widget ’ ) ;

Hello @dorekpl ,

This code is not for use in CSS. This is PHP code and you add it to your child theme’s functions.php file or using mu-plugin https://premium.wpmudev.org/docs/getting-started/download-wpmu-dev-plugins-themes/#installing-mu-plugins

function remove_calendar_widget ()  {

unregister_widget ( 'WP_Widget_Calendar' ) ;

}

add_action ( 'widgets_init' , 'remove_calendar_widget' ) ;

kind regards,

Cz??? Kasia,

Kasia, I am new to WordPress and just trying to make some changes to my website. I installed ‘XYZ PHP code’ plug-in but when I copied php code (see below) NO changes, calendar is still in all my POSTS and I want to remove it because it is confusing my clients. They think it is there for bookings.

Do you have suggestions for better php code. Is this one even correct (I got it from youtube but not sure if I wrote it correctly)? I am Appearance > Theme > Customfit if that helps.

function remove_calendar_widget () { unregister_widget ( ‘WP_Widget_Calendar’ ) ; } add_action ( ‘widgets_init’ , ‘remove_calendar_widget’ ) ;

Hi @dorekpl

Thanks for response!

Let me reply in points for more clarity ??

1. The code that you found – it’s PHP code and, technically speaking, it’s fine. If you added it using XYZ PHP code plugin, it should be okay but then, I cannot really say for sure if this code is appropriate for the theme that you are using. It’s a generic code, theme may be doing things differently.

It’s some custom/premium theme apparently so I have no way to install it to check.

But it should still be possible to remove the calendar anyway.

2. If there is no calendar available in sidebar widgets (as you mentioned there are only + icons in “sidebar” section on “Appearance -> widgets” page) it is quite possible that there is some option in theme settings to disable calendar.

3. Still, if you can’t find such option or there’s no such option, the simplest way to do this is to use CSS:

#calendar { display:none;}

Simply add it to “Appearance -> Customize -> Additional CSS” on site if there is such an option. If there isn’t, look through theme settings to find some place for adding custom CSS and put it there.

Basically, add it just the same way as you added the CSS for removing the date of posting.

Adam
