Author meta disabled in theme options, but still visible on the search page

I have disabled Author meta from:

Theme option > Blog, Portfolio & Shop > Blog > Post Meta

It is not showing on the category archive and single posts. However, it is still visible on the Search Result page.

On reviewing the content-single.php file and search.php files, I found that:
  1. search.php - (Line 45-52)
    • check the mfn_opts_get( 'blog-meta' ) option
    • If it is true, then all the meta info including date and author will be visible on the frontend
  2. content-single.php - (Line 112-121, 128-145)
    • first check the mfn_opts_get( 'blog-meta' ) option
    • If it is true then again check the $single_meta['author'] and $single_meta['date'] individually
    • Then only show the enabled value on the frontend
Could you please fix it in the next version?

Thank you.

  • Hello,
    this option is available for single posts pages. The search results is something different. We do not modify the search result page. The only sollution for now is to hide the date with css.
    thanks
  • Thanks for the response.

    I have modified the search.php file after copying into child theme.
