designsimply on "removed search box and author in Spring Loaded theme"

I'd like to remove the Search box in the header.

This will remove the search box from the header in the Spring Loaded theme:

#header .search-bar {
	display: none;
}

It also could be combined with the other rules so you'd just have one block like this:

.page .post-date,
.page .metadata,
.page .category,
#header .search-bar {
	display: none;
}

I want to remove the "posted by" with my name, date, time under the post.

I see you've figured this out using the following custom CSS:

.page .post-date {
	display: none;
}
.page .metadata {
	display: none;
}
.page .category {
	display: none;
}

Note that you can combine that into one rule, check it out:

.page .post-date,
.page .metadata,
.page .category {
	display: none;
}

I've been looking forever-- I know I've done this before and can't find it now.

I'm rebuilding a friend's site and want to remove the "posted by" with my name, date, time under the post; and I'd like to remove the Search box in the header.

I've tried some things customizing the CSS (I've paid for the upgrade) and I'm lost. Help!?!? (please!?!?)

You are welcome, and take care of that hair.

Thank you, TheSacredPath! I'm glad I cried "uncle" before I pulled out all of my hair.

The stuff on the single post page is done differently. Either add the below to your CSS, or add the selector to what you have already have.

.singular .entry-meta {
display: none;
}

I've hidden the "footer" for posts that has the "This entry was posted in... and tagged... by Sensuous Inkspiller. Bookmark the permalink." line, leaving only the "edit" and "Leave a reply" (or how many replies) with this code:

.entry-meta .cat-links,.entry-meta .tag-links,.entry-meta .sep { display:none; }

Perfect!

But...

I can't get it to work for the individual posts... meaning when I click on the post title itself, and it opens only that post. I've tried .singular.entry-meta and .entry-meta a and footer entry-meta, and I can't get it to work. I came upon some combination that seemed to work, but also hid the entire line from the main page, including the "Edit" and the "Leave a reply", which isn't what I wanted, and there are so many revisions on my CSS page I can't find what it was.

Please help?

(Also... this is okay to do, yes? It's not messing with something required to be there?)

Thank you! (Blog is linked to my name.)
