Removing "About the Author" on Pages

    I'm happy with how the author info gets shown on posts, but I don't want it to be visible on "pages". Is there a way to turn the "About the Author" box off on pages?

    You can copy page.php from /wp-content/themes/arras/ to /wp-content/themes/arras-classical-gamer and delete the portion that displays the post author:

    <?php if ( arras_get_option('display_author') ) : ?>
        <div class="about-author clearfix">
        	<h4><?php _e('About the Author', 'arras') ?></h4>
            <?php echo get_avatar(get_the_author_meta('ID'), 48); ?>
            <?php the_author_meta('description'); ?>
        </div>
        <?php endif; ?>

    Thanks for your answer, zy.
    It works, but only on pages that use the default-template. If I use the one-column template, it still shows the "About the Author" box.

    You can do the same for the other page templates by copying them over to the child theme folder and delete the respective code.

    Is there a way to remove the author box from certain pages? I don't need it on my custom login page or about page.

    Thanks,

    I guess this is sort of related, so I'm wondering how you can remove the 'Posted by Author on May 17th', from just pages?
