I'd like to disable the "created by" at the bottom of my new notes page. I just created a notes page to serve as a contact us page and noticed it's got this at the bottom:

Created by zenseeker May 10, 2008 at 6:20pm. Last updated by zenseeker just now.

I suppose it works for some pages, but it really isn't necessary for something as static as a Contact Us page. Thanks for any help.

Someone over at the creators site is also searching for a solution. We had Evan's ear for a minute, but he didn't quite give us an answer.

I found this suggestion, but it didn't work for me:

You can easily hide the "Created by" on the Groups tab of your network. Go to the Manage tab of your network and click the "Appearance" link. Click the "Advanced" tab and enter in:
.membersby {display:none;}

Hi zenseeker,

Because the "Created By..." footnote is in a couple of pages in the Notes feature, you'll need specific CSS for each specific page. Specifically for the Notes feature, try the following CSS:

/* This will remove the "Create by..." on the main page */
.module_notes .xg_module_body .note .xg_lightfont { display:none; }

/* This will remove the "Create by..." on the Notes page */
.xg_widget_notes .xg_module_body.notes_list .xg_lightfont { display:none; }

/* And this removes the "Created by..." footer on each individual note. */
.xg_widget_notes .xg_module_foot p { display:none; }

This will not apply to other "Created by" footnotes outside of the Notes page. Let me know if you need specific CSS for that.

This worked beautifully. Thanks Ernie.
Where do i place the code?
Click the Manage tab, click Appearance, scroll down the page a bit, see two tabs - Theme Settings and Advanced. Click Advanced. Place your code at the end of the css that appears in the text box. Don't forget to click Save button. Hope that helps.
Since the last release this is not working any more! Can you help?
Hi Ernie, I followed your instructions above to remove "created by." For some reason "created by" didn't appear in any of my Notes before I followed your instructions above.

What I want to do is remove "added by (my name" on (date)" and "last updated by (my name) on (date)" from all Notes. Could you please tell me how to do that? Thanks

(This happened on my free testnetwork09.ning.com. I'm trying to do it there before I do it for real on my production network with premium services from Ning: MySLART.org)
Ernie,

Thanks - this works like a charm for all of the Created by. Can you help, on how to remove the Added By (appears when clicking on actual note)?

Thanks!

Zenseeker - the code you posted above, to remove the "Created by" on the Groups tab doesn't seem to work. Do you have an update?
