hey warriors, just wondered if anyone knows how to remove comment dates on wordpress?

I've searched all over & have tried removing portions of php code for my theme

    Just a matter of modifying the correct template, usually 'comments.php'.

    EDIT:
    If you want to PM me your URL, I'll take a quick look. Should be pretty easy.

    Open your comment.php file from the theme, search for a function called "comment_date();" and delete that line

    Are you using WordPress? Have you tried qSandbox yet?

      this is the better option, deleting core functions could cause trouble during wp updates.

    If you have php knowledge you can make a hook to remove the date as a plugin.

    Or like it was recommended above, you could add to your CSS theme something like this:

    Class
    Code:
    .yourcommentDate { display:none }
    Code:
    <span class="yourcommentDate">08 Nov 2012 at 06:21</span>
    ID

    Code:
    #yourcommentDate { display:none }
    Code:
    <span id="yourcommentDate">08 Nov 2012 at 06:21</span>
