Hello and welcome back to my website codewithlaxu. So how are you all guys? I hope you’ll are doing good. So let’s start our today’s article, So today’s article topic is “How to remove or hide author name from wordpress website. So let’s start make sure you read the article completely so that you don’t miss any part okay.
So first of all the very first step is to Log in your wordpress dashboard admin panel after that in the left hand side you’ll get and Option of Appearance you have to click on it and after that you have to select the Customize Option and after that a new page will open where you can make changes to your website and in the left hand side only you’ll get an option of Additonal css its at the last so you might have to scroll a bit down.
After clicking on additional css a white blank notepad type area will appear you have to paste the given below code in that area
.entry-meta,
.posted-on,
.byline,
.author,
.cat-links,
.comments-link {
display: none !important;
}After pasting the above code in your additional css area you just need to click on the publish button which is available at the top of the page and now you’ll see that the author name is hidden from your website. And nobody will be able to view the author name.
So the main aim behind the author name is most of the time there is chances that hackers might try to enter your website it means they try to crawl on your website and they check the loop holes from where they can access your main files so from author name also the hackers get alot of details so its better for safer side we should try not show the author name in your wordpress website.
