Hi sacredpath,
Thanks for your response.
‘By’ isn’t in the actual text content yet it is in the source code, I haven’t edited the theme files. Your questions helped me look at the problem again and finally see what was causing the issue. The problem was that the Social Media Feather plugin that I was using has a icon stating their name ‘by…’, which somehow got turned into text in my project. I’ve deactivated this plugin and my local version is now fixed.
Thank you.
Holly
