I want to remove the Feed button and the datepost author info from my wordpress powered site. I want it to look more like a website than a blog.

How do I do this? Edit the main templete file? What about the single post? Or am I way off?

    Feed stuff is in the header.php

    The Info stuff is in the page.php callled metadata

        In header.php delete lines 49 to 55 :

        Code:
        <div id="feedarea">
        <dl>
            <dt><strong><?php _e('Feed on','ml');?></strong></dt>
            <dd><a href="<?php bloginfo('rss2_url'); ?>"><?php _e('Posts','ml');?></a></dd>
            <dd><a href="<?php bloginfo('comments_rss2_url'); ?>"><?php _e('Comments','ml');?></a></dd>
        </dl>
        </div><!-- end id:feedarea -->
        In page.php remove lines 10 and 11 :

        Code:
                            <h2><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="<?php _e('Permanent Link to','ml');?> <?php the_title(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h2>
                            <p class="post-info"><?php the_time(__('M jS, Y','ml')) ?> <?php _e('by','ml');?> <?php the_author_posts_link() ?> <?php edit_post_link(__('Edit','ml'), '', ' | '); ?> </p>
        In single.php remove lines 12 and 13 :

        Code:
                            <h2><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="<?php _e('Permanent Link to','ml');?> <?php the_title(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h2>
                            <p class="post-info"><?php the_time(__('M jS, Y','ml')) ?> <?php _e('by','ml');?> <?php the_author_posts_link() ?> <?php edit_post_link(__('Edit','ml'), '', ' | '); ?> </p>
        In index.php remove lines 35 to 38 :

        Code:
                            <p class="postmetadata"><?php if (function_exists('the_tags')) the_tags(__('Tags: ','ml'), ', ', '<br/>'); ?> </p>
                        </div>
        
                        <p class="postmetadata"><?php _e('Posted in','ml');?> <?php the_category(', ') ?> | <?php comments_popup_link(__('No Comments »','ml'), __('1 Comment »','ml'), __('% Comments »','ml'),'',__('Comments Off','ml')); ?></p>
        Should do the trick...
