    The 20/16 VCReady theme does everything I want it to do, with just one exception. I run a personal blog site, I’m the only user, so I’m the only user who posts, and I don’t need the “Published by ….” line at the top of every post.

    Is there any way to remove this line?

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    Hi there, please try the following CSS and let me know if that works for you:

    .post-meta span.author {
display: none;
}

    Thanks for the response.

    I have tried inserting that in to the style.css in each of:
    . wp-content\themes\2016-vcready
    . wp-content\themes\twentysixteen

    /*
* Added to remove the "Published by" line
*/
.post-meta span.author {
display: none;
}

    No change.

    I’m not new to WordPress, but I am new to css. Am I at least in the right place?

    Success!

    After some more digging, I found this:

    .post-meta {
    font-size: 0.9rem;
    margin-bottom: 7px;
}

    And then added this to it:

    /*
* Added to remove the "Published by" line.
*/
.post-meta span.author {
display: none;
}
.post-meta span.date {
display: none;
}
/*
* End of modification.
*/

    @torres126, thank you.

    I’m sorry that I somehow missed this thread, I’m glad you figured it out though.

    So am I!

    For the record, I only needed that modification in the 2016-vcready style.css file.
