Override the default article.tpl by copying it to /design/yourdesign/override/templates/full/article.tpl and comment or delete following lines which display author and date:

        {section show=$node.object.data_map.author.content.is_empty|not()}
        <div class="attribute-byline">
        <p class="author">
             {attribute_view_gui attribute=$node.object.data_map.author}
        </p>
        <p class="date">
             {$node.object.published|l10n(date)}
        </p>
        </div>
        {/section}

Thank you Vjeran. Works perfectly

Also, can anyone point me to the template that lists all the articles in the category?

Thank you!

Hi Alex!
The best way to figure out which template do some part is to turn on the template debug option by editing /settings/override/site.ini.append.php file.
Add the following lines into that file:

[TemplateSettings]
Debug=enabled

Don't forget to clear the cache after that.

tnx again Vjeran.
My problem wasn't even that much of the filename issue I guess, but rather where do I put the override file. I'm trying to figure out the filestructure for the override files but I don't seem to understand it.

I understand that it has to be somewhere within /design/my_site/override/templates/, but where do I place it from there forward. I'll go through the available documentation again and try to figure it out

Hi.
Template overrides are handled trough /settings/override/siteacces/mysite/override.ini.append.php, so check it.

The easiest way (or maybe not, I'm also a beginner ;-)) is to follow same directory structure as in /standard or /base dir. So, if you want to override
design/standard/templates/node/view/sitemap.tpl, copy it to the /design/mysite/templates/node/view/.
Hope this helps.
