Hello, we have a wesite built using your theme – http://sharmgroup.by/
On the home page (right column) – we placed recent post widget (first tab) and we would like to remove the author name (in our case its “smeg_user”) and a comma infront of it.

Can you point us on where we can do it (what file and what code to change).

Thanks in advance.

Hello @Val,

You didn’t provide us with FTP credentials that’s why we can not edit your files. But you can do it yourself – just edit legenda/framework/widgets.php file and comment out line number 368.

I found it.
But I dont know how to “comment out line”

Here is what i see on line 368
<?php _e(‘by’, ETHEME_DOMAIN) ?> <?php the_author(); ?><br>

What should I add/replace here?

thank you.

Hello,

This article should be helpful for you: http://php.about.com/od/learnphp/qt/php_comments.htm.
Or you can just remove this line from the code.
