Thank you Priyanka, I tried this and nothing changed. I want the years to to only be 1. Also want the Meta turned off. Was hoping there was a setting in the theme that we can turn off archives and the Meta section on the blog? If We can not control the posts can we just have them not display at all. Thank you

Hello Priyanka,

That did work but I wanted to keep categories and recent posts. Also when you go to an actual post it is all there and looks really funny now. I think I do not understand theblog so well and may have to look for a plug in for a blog template layout and options that will work better.
Thank you so much for the options.

 

Is it possible to only have 2 years of archives and no Meta present on the the landing page for Blog/News and the actual posts

 

Hello,

For the archive issue, you can also use plugin..

Below are some recommended plugins, please have a look...

Better archives widget: https://wordpress.org/plugins/better-archives-widget/screenshots/

Collapsing Archives: https://wordpress.org/plugins/collapsing-archives/installation/

For the meta section, you are kindly suggested to put a blank text field in secondary widget section of your dashboard and check after that...

Hope it will resolve your issue

Thanks & Regards!

Oh my goodness thank you for directing me to the dashboard and the widget area. Found many options for the blog side bar and did not even have to add a plug in. That is my lack of knowledge building with Wordpress.
