It works, thanks!

Wow you rock.

I have no idea how I changed it for the worse, but your fixes corrected it. Definitely going to check out the tutorial.

If I get serious about this website thing in the future I’m going to you guys for a premium theme.

Thanks!

Hi there

I’m JUST starting my website and I wanted to remove the published in- and posted by- icons on the posts, like flicker91 did. FYI I do content updates on WP (Responsive child theme) at work but I’m a total beginner at setting up a site. I saw that adding that Custom CSS worked on flicker91’s site so I thought I’d try it (copied & pasted).

I ended up with NO featured image, and I still have the icons I was trying to remove. The posts are full width now as well, instead of in nice little columns.

I’ve tried everything I can think of. I deleted and reinstalled the theme, deleted my plugins, deleted my cookies. I did Options Reset in Advanced Settings. I went into the database to try to search for the code I entered but couldn’t find it, and I deleted my 10 or so most recent _posts files (obviously getting desperate here). I asked my software developer boyfriend with over 10 years experience as a professional programmer to look at it, but he’s a “back end guy” with zero WordPress/CSS experience so he couldn’t figure it out either.

Then I deleted the theme again and reinstalled it again. And pulled up the site in an incognito window. I tried Twenty Twelve and I’m not familiar with that theme BUT I’m pretty sure the featured image was working with it.

I suppose it’s possible that the css I added didn’t create the problem but it was timed exactly. It has occurred to me I could try to delete the database entirely but… yikes.

I really like the theme and chose it because I loved how helpful the support seemed. Please help!

I’ve switched the site back to Virtue, and activated the Virtue Toolkit plugin. Thanks in advance! ??
