How Do I Remove the Timestamp on My Blogger.com Post?

For bloggers who utilize Blogger.com, this article provides two methods of removing the timestamp based on whether the blogger used a standard or customized blog template.

Acquired by Google in 2003, Blogger.com allows multi-user blogs that are time-stamped to be posted. It is a free blogging platform known for being easy to use, and because it's a Google product, blogs are easily linked to Google products such as Google+. If you use Blogger.com, you may want to post a blog without the timestamp. How do you remove the timestamp from your Blogger.com post? You can manage your content by contacting customer support here or following the steps below to remove the timestamp yourself.

Some bloggers remove the timestamp because the blog is evergreen or useful year-round. This way readers will not automatically dismiss your content for newer posts that provide the same information. There are two ways to remove the timestamp from your blog post.

Using a Standard Template

When you use the preset/standard template, you can remove the timestamp following these steps:

  1. Log into your Blogger.com account.
  2. Select "Layout" setting.
  3. Navigate to the "Post Page Options" window.
  4. Turn off the timestamp and hit "Save."

Using a Custom Template

If you're using a customized template, use these steps for the standard template to remove the timestamp. This method is primarily used by those with a working knowledge of coding. Most users use the standard template rather than a customized template for their blogs. If you are using a custom template, remove the time stamp following these steps:

  1. Log into your Blogger.com account.
  2. On your page, open the template settings.
  3. Choose either "Edit HTML" or "Expand Widget Template."
  4. Search for the timestamp code in the information that comes up and delete that code from your template settings.
  5. Search for the CSS (cascading style sheets) code and make sure the timestamp code is also removed from that as well.

By removing the timestamp from your Blogger.com post, you can keep recycling that particular post as long as the information remains relevant to current situations. If you need more assistance or information on removing the timestamp, contact customer support here.
