I went ahead and used solution #1. Although I needed to leave this code still in the function.php file:

locate_template( ‘/inc/boldgrid-theme-framework-config/config.php’, true, true );
require_once get_template_directory() . ‘/inc/boldgrid-theme-framework/boldgrid-theme-framework.php’;

That worked for the blog page, but it didn’t remove the date on the individual post page (when you click the blog title on the blog page). On the individual post page, the date still shows.

Here is what my current functions.php file has:

<?php
/**
* Prints HTML with meta information for the current post-date/time and author.
*
* @see: https://www.boldgrid.com/support/question/in-the-blog-how-can-i-remove-the-posted-on-date-text/
*/
locate_template( ‘/inc/boldgrid-theme-framework-config/config.php’, true, true );
require_once get_template_directory() . ‘/inc/boldgrid-theme-framework/boldgrid-theme-framework.php’;
function boldgrid_posted_on() {
if ( is_archive() ) {
return;
}
$time_string = ‘<time class=”entry-date published updated” datetime=”%1$s”>%2$s</time>’;
if ( get_the_time( ‘U’ ) !== get_the_modified_time( ‘U’ ) ) {
$time_string = ‘<time class=”entry-date published” datetime=”%1$s”>%2$s</time><time class=”updated” datetime=”%3$s”>%4$s</time>’;
}
$time_string = sprintf( $time_string,
esc_attr( get_the_date( ‘c’ ) ),
esc_html( get_the_date() ),
esc_attr( get_the_modified_date( ‘c’ ) ),
esc_html( get_the_modified_date() )
);
$posted_on = sprintf(
_x( ‘Posted on %s’, ‘post date’, ‘bgtfw’ ),
‘<a href=”‘ . esc_url( get_permalink() ) . ‘” rel=”bookmark”>’ . $time_string . ‘</a>’
);
$byline = sprintf(
_x( ‘by %s’, ‘post author’, ‘bgtfw’ ),
‘<span class=”author vcard”><a class=”url fn n” href=”‘ . esc_url( get_author_posts_url( get_the_author_meta( ‘ID’ ) ) ) . ‘”>’ . esc_html( get_the_author() ) . ‘</a></span>’
);
echo ‘<span class=”posted-on”>’ . $posted_on . ‘</span><span class=”byline”> ‘ . $byline . ‘</span>’;
}

What change to the functions.php file could I make to remove the post date from the individual post pages?

Thanks again.

Thanks Tim,

That works really well.

So, where would I add this code:

add_filter( 'widget_text', 'shortcode_unautop' );
add_filter( 'widget_text', 'do_shortcode' );

Is that the correct place for the Venetian child theme?
