It\'s now under Content > Article Manager > Parameters. Thanks for your site, Daniel www.DVDs4theSAT.com Top-quality SAT prep on your schedule Daniel Tue, 26 Feb 2008 12:47:37 +0100 http://www.dart-creations.com/joomla/joomla-tips-and-tricks/18-remove-author-names-created-and-modified-date.html#josc276 Where are the content parameters? They are not in the global configuration anymore. Joomla! 1.5 provides component specific settings, which are not set in the global configuration, but in each component itself. For this, there is a button called \"Preferences\" in the toolbar of the components, when this feature is available. I switched off setting X in the global preferences, but the author/readmore/something is still shown in the article. Can I only switch this off in each article seperately? In Joomla! 1.5 the parameters can be overwritten by higher ranking parameters. In case a parameter is not set, the global parameters or preferences of the component take effect, then the parameters set in the menu item overwrite these global parameters, which then can be overwritten by the article parameters. If you set the authorname to not show in the article, it will not be shown, regardless what you select in the preferences or the menu item. If you enable the authorname in the preferences, but not to in the menu item, it will not be shown. If you set the menu item and the article to \"Use Globals\", the global parameters will be used. Mathematically speaking, the setting work as the following: Article > Menu Item > Global Parameters jon Thu, 27 Mar 2008 09:50:17 +0100 http://www.dart-creations.com/joomla/joomla-tips-and-tricks/18-remove-author-names-created-and-modified-date.html#josc343 On home page After every article there come Written by **** I want to hide i have done above settings but still coming on home page is there any other way to hide this Please help me out.

I was just wrestling with this. The issue is that all of the global configuration settings are overridden for the Front Page in the sample data. You can fix this by doing (from the administration home): ->Menus->MenuManager open settings for the main menu and click on the Home link. Expand the Parameters Component section and change all of the settings you want back to \"Global Configuration\" or whatever you want them set to.

There are two workarounds: 1) Set the appropriate parameters on each affected article, or, 2) Unpublish and republish the affected articles. Personally, I prefer the second option, since if you later change your mind about showing that data, it\'s relatively consistent across all articles.

I installed the sample data and got the Author, Date Updated, etc. information to obey the \"Use Global\" setting in most cases (Global set to \"hide\" for everything in my case), but then in sometimes (e.g., when I displayed articles in the blog format), they would reappear. The thing that finally fixed it was when I went into every single sample menu item and changed the options to \"Use Global\" -- even for menus that were not enabled. So, somewhere (apparently) my new articles were somehow associated with one of the sample menus when I displayed the items directly (e.g., didn\'t access them through then menu). This seems really strange behavior to me, but it solved the problem I was having. Now all of my articles display with the global settings when I choose \"Use Global\" (unless the particular menu actually being used and displayed overrides the article-level \"use global\" setting). This is the behavior I would expect. GPoole Tue, 10 Mar 2009 22:16:54 +0100
