Remove dates on comments in Wordpress

[Ellen C Braun]

Do you know where I'd go to remove the dates on all the comments in my wordpress site- www.raisingsmallsouls.com

I found instructions to remove the dates in the actual posts, now I want the dates in the comments removed as well!

Thanks!

To do that, you'll need to do some code hacking of your theme. Theme code is not standardized and names and locations of things vary. That means it takes some php/html knowledge and some trial and error effort. If your theme has a "comments.php" file, it's probably in there, but that's about the closest I can get for you. Sometimes you may have to change code in more than one part of a file, too. And it can be in more than one file. When you find the likely location, delete the entire php command that starts with "<?" and ends with "?>". Be sure to back up the file, in case you have to try a few times before you find the right one.

I wouldn't be surprised if someone's written a plugin that will do this, but I couldn't find one in a quick search. I just found a couple of plugins that will remove the date from posts.

Thanks, Wade!

I ended up just changing the dates on my old comments to yesterday's date- so it looked current!
