I've tried this and it does not work. Could I be editing the wrong meta.php file? I'm editing the one in /wp-content/themes/wppolitico.

Hi Justin, Where is the "meta.php" file for Photopharm theme? I'm also trying to delete the "no comments" copy underneath posts headlines.

Thanks!

Open the meta.php file (make a backup first). Then, remove the following:

<span class="theComments"><?php comments_popup_link('No Comments ››', '1 Comment ››', '% Comments ››'); ?></span> <span class="theAuthor"><?php the_author(); ?>

I haven't tested this in every instance, but that should do it. Please remember to backup your original. Good luck and let me know how it goes!

Thanks,
Justin

I would like to remove from each post the following:

Authors Name
The words "Comments Off"

I thought this would be in index.php from the other posts I have read. However, I can't find it. Any help with this?
