Work Around for Depreciated Plug In

  • Hi,

    I’m using the Essence Pro theme- I use this plugin because I don’t see anywhere in the theme to edit the metadata under each post (author etc.) Is there a workaround for this in Essence Pro? I hide the author info and categories and only show date published under each post title. I’m happy to stop using the plug-in if I can do this another way, but I don’t see the functionality for it!

  • Hi there,

    For Essence Pro you will need to edit the child themes function.php file to change the post info, I am very sorry. We will be updating the documentation for Essence Pro with more information in the near future.

    This is the code that you will need to edit:

    /**
    * Modifies the meta information in the entry header.
    *
    * @since 1.0.0
    *
    * @param string $post_info Current post info.
    * @return string New post info.
    */
    function essence_modify_post_info( $post_info ) {

    global $post;

    setup_postdata( $post );

    if ( is_single() ) {
    $post_info = ‘[post_categories before=”” after=” /”] [post_date] <i class=”byline”>’ . __( ‘by’, ‘essence-pro’ ) . ‘</i> [post_author_posts_link] [post_comments before=”/ “] [post_edit]’;
    } else {
    $post_info = ‘[post_categories before=””]’;
    }
    return $post_info;

    }

    You can also reach out to our support team through your StudioPress account if you have further questions.

    Kind regards,
