remove date and category in WordPress post - wordpress

I would like to remove creation date and category in WordPress post.
In particular, I would like to use a plugin that hides that infos when I see the list of articles in my home page, or when I read the article (precisely, after the article title)
I do not want to modify Wordpress template files because, after an update, modifications could be lost.
Any suggestion?

wordpress blogs in different pages

I have a page containing a set of images linked to other pages. How can I make each of the linked pages a separate blog?
To give you some more context, each image represents a challenge that I set myself up to and I would like to have a separate 'blog' for each challenge to document my progress. So far I have managed to link pages together and navigate from the page containing all the challenges to the page containing the details about 1 single challenge. However the latter page is not a blog so I cannot add new posts to the page. If I try to write a new blog post it gets added above the challenges(list) page
This is a link to the page that I am refering to.
Thanks in advance for your help
What you need to do is use categories for your posts - like Challenge One and Challenge Two - and then your posts will be automatically organized into category archives. Add a third category - called All Challenges - to all the posts and that category archive will list all posts in all three categories by chronology.
The URLs to the category archive pages will be something like this, depending on your category names and slugs, and how you set up your category base in Settings>>Permalinks.
example.com/categories/challenge-one
example.com/categories/challenge-two
example.com/categories/all-challenges
Link those category archive URLs from your images on your main page that has a gallery of images for each challenge post category.
You can make up custom category templates for each category, so the layout and design can be different.
See
https://codex.wordpress.org/Using_Permalinks#Category_base_and_Tag_base
and
https://make.wordpress.org/training/handbook/user-lessons/categories-vs-tags/
and
https://codex.wordpress.org/Category_Templates
There are multiple ways you can achieve this in WordPress. Let me tell you the easiest one:-
Using Post Categories
Follow the steps below:
Step1: Break your challenges into different categories, for example Challenge 1, Challenge 2, and so on... You can easily do that by creating and choosing the right category while writing a post.
Step2: Go Settings->Premalinks in your WordPress dashboard and choose "Post Name".
Step3: Now you have to find the new links for your challenge images. You can find these links in Post->Categories tab within your dashboard. Once you are in the categories browse page within your WordPress dashboard, just hover over the category whose link you want and you will see a "View" tab which will take you to that particular category page. This category page will show only the posts that you have published under that particular category.
Step4: Once you have the category link with you just update it in the respective challenge image link.
I hope you will be able to resolve your issue with this.

How can I change a wordpress custom post back to a standard post?

I have inherited a legacy wordpress installation which has a complex template with a couple of custom post types.
I want to migrate it to a simpler theme and convert all the custom post types back to regular posts.
I have gone into the wp_posts table and changed the values in the post_type column from "product" or "service" or whatever back to "post" and the posts in question now load into the template, but they don't show up in the list of posts in the admin page. If I load the editor on another post, and change the ID in the url bar to one of my would-be normal posts, they will load up and I can edit them, but I just can't make them show up in the posts list.
Is there somewhere else I need to change things to make Wordpress see them as standard posts?

Category Listing Page with posts filtered to selected tag on Wordpress Blog

I'm working on a Wordpress 3.4 project. I have categories and then several tags, and also one custom taxonomy as types.
Wordpress is fantastic as far as it handles all the taxonomy page, but I'm unable to figure out how to have pages where I have categories listing page (with pagination) specifically filtered to a selected tag or custom taxonomy.
So basically I want Categories, but then again, I also need to have a categories page with all posts filtered to specific tag, and then with pagination.
I have tried to figure out how to do that, but unable to find the exact doc or help. The issue is also with the URL, as how it will be formed?
Any idea how to fix that one, or any plugin to get this things done?
I think these two codex pages will help you along your way.
http://codex.wordpress.org/Class_Reference/WP_Query
and
http://codex.wordpress.org/images/1/18/Template_Hierarchy.png
You can use WP_Query to query posts based on tags and categories/custom taxonomies and much more.
If you look at the template hierarchy you'll see you can use special template files for tags and taxonomies too. Just remember to flush your permalinks if you're not seeing these templates being used if you create one.

How to create a costum template structure like for pages and post but for different entities like hotels, products etc

Hi everyone I am creating a wordpress theme and a custom plug-in which is related to hotel booking and display the information on the front end entered in the back end in admin panel of wordpress .
so friends whenever a post is displayed the url is like http://localhost/wordpress/uncategorized/post10/ and the name of the post or id of the post changes in a url but at the back end only single.php template get used by wordpress again and again so my question is can wee create something like that for different things for example in my case to display hotel only hotel.php file get used again and again and in url only the id of the hotel changes .
I didn't searched much about this on internet but I have seen something like that in wp-e-commerce plugin in which there is a separate template files to display the categories of products and also for products and those files are in the plugin directory.
You should first create custom post type (you will find plugins for that), for example a hotel post type.
Then you can easily create specific template for this post type, for example single-hotel.php.

Wordpress additional fields

In my WP installation I have a category called "books". In addition to the title and body text I'd like to add a field called "ISBN" that must be filled in for every post in this category. In the Blog category this field should not be displayed in the admin.
In Expression Engine and Drupal it's quite straightforward to add fields like this but I'm not sure about how this works in WP. What's the best way of doing this in WP 3.2.1?
In wordpress this can be done by adding meta-data to posts
