    Hi. Can the following be done:
    1. Delete post author.
    2. Move date to bottom left corner instead on "comments"
    3. The shift/expand text area up into new space so that text area is now larger.
    Image attached with instructions.
    Thanks! change posts 2.jpg

    Hello Vesity,

    To make changes as you want, you have to edit index.php file as shown below in screenshot.

    It will resolve your issue.

    Ok, thank you, but this is not what I asked for. When I followed these instructions, it gave me the following results (in the attached image.)

    If you look again at my request, I'm asking for
    1. DELETE post author (not move).
    2. MOVE date to bottom left corner where it says "no comment" (not top, center).
    3. Doing this opens up space at the top, so I'd like for the post text area to EXPAND up into that space, making the post excerpt larger.

    I figured out how to move the date to the desired spot (bottom left corner), but when I moved it, the "read more" disappeared.

    On second thought, is it possible to make either the post CATEGORY or the post TAGS show up in the bottom right hand corner, instead of "read more"? That would be preferred. Thank you.

    Hello,

    Paste following code in index.php after line of Date in blog section (Posted on) as shown below in screenshot.
    <li class="posted-cat">Category : <?php the_category(', '); ?></li>

    Hi. Thank you. This worked, except it put category UNDER date instead of on same line, right align. See screenshot.

    To be clear: I'm trying to get DATE left aligned, and CATEGORY right aligned -- both on same line.

    Hello,

    Use following css code in Custom CSS to fix it.
    Code:
    li.posted_on {
    float: left;
    }
    li.posted-cat {
    text-align: right;
    }
    .post_content_bottom li {
    margin-left: 0;
    }
    It will resolve your issue.

    Thanks & Regards
