Home › Community Forums › Aspire Theme Support › Blog – Remove Author and Show Excerpt
Hello! I just added a blog to our site and I would like to do two things:
1. Hide the author name.
2. Show excerpts on the main blog page, instead of the full entry.

Thank you for any help! Erin
To remove the author name, add this to your functions.php –
//* Customize the post info function
add_filter( 'genesis_post_info', 'sp_post_info_filter' );
function sp_post_info_filter($post_info) {
if ( !is_page() ) {
$post_info = '[post_date] by [post_comments] [post_edit]';
return $post_info;
}}
If you ever want to add it back or rearrange the order, add this shortcode –
[post_author_posts_link]
To show excerpts (on the blog), take a look in your Genesis Theme Settings page in the Content Archives section. You can select a content limit or excerpt in the Display option.
Thank you so much! The excerpts are working, however, I added the code snippet to my functions.php to remove the author, and it is still there…

Is that link your regular blog page or is that a custom page? If it’s the regular blog page, then I’m not sure why it’s not working. I just did another test with that same code and it seems to work.
Let me know if you want me to login and try it.
Hi! I found out what was going on… I have Genesis Simple Edits installed and one of the defaults is to show the post author. As soon as I discovered and removed that, the name disappeared.
Thank you again for all your help!
Ah! I didn’t think about that. I was wondering if there was some custom code added somewhere.
