Hello, I need a small help for my blog page.

I edited the page “content.php” in my Child directory to obtain what I had in mind regarding fonts and colors. But now I don’t know how:

1. to remove the part with “was last modified: July 13th, 2018 by admin”. In “8Theme Options/Blog Layout” the part “Show About Author block” is off, but it is still visible.

2. to add the text with an abstract of the article. In “8Theme Options/Blog Layout” the field “Excerpt length(words)” is set to 35.

Why don’t these two options work in my case?

Please, contact administrator
for this information.

Hello,

You can check if these options work fine with parent theme to find out if your changes in files cause problems.
Also, you may use this custom css code:
```
.blog-post .content-article {
    display:  none;
}
```
and add Excerpt for posts manually – http://prntscr.com/k6wpro

Hello,

Even if I remove my custom content.php in my Child the situation doesn’t change, therefore the problem is somewhere else.

With your script in CSS I solved the first problem, but regarding the second problem, I don’t have in my Post Edit Page the field Excerpt. Please check.
Why does it happen? Could this (https://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-themes/how-to-display-post-excerpts-in-wordpress-themes/) solve?

In any case, I would like to use the standard system, so that I don’t need every time to insert a new excerpt by hand on every page and in every language. Maybe it is hidden by default? Could I force to show it with a custom instruction in my style.css?
Maybe because I’m using Visual Composer/WP Bakery to write the text in the page?

Hello,

If you want to use Visual Composer to create post content then use manual excerpt http://prntscr.com/k7kd5r because auto excerpt works only if you use simple html in page content http://prntscr.com/k7kf42
