      I’m trying to display the author name on my posts and have checked all the boxes in Genesis User settings but it’s still not showing up.
      Some time ago I disabled the date and author on my site by editing the theme functions php but now I can no longer find this section. Has WordPress/Genesis taken this away somewhere? I’m using the Optimal Child theme and I can’t see anywhere to tweak code – just the simple hooks and there is no related code in there.

      Thanks.

        Are you talking about the author name that shows up like this page? – http://demo.appfinite.net/optimal/templates/blog/

        If so, that should work by default unless you have code somewhere or a plugin that deactivates or modifies it in some way.

          Unless you’ve updated the theme, those changes you made should still be in either your functions.php, or maybe your single.php.

          You could also try installing the Genesis Simple Edits plugin, and customize your post info and post meta using that, similar to how you’d use Simple Hooks.
