In Drupal 7, this is controlled on the content type edit page, rather than on the theme edit page, which was the case for Drupal 6.

So, go to Structure >> Content Types
Edit the content type you want to change.
Scroll to Show display settings
Remove the tick from 'Display author and date information'
Hit the Save content type button

Hope that helps.

I Removed the tick from 'Display author and date information' and the posted by still shows up, I create a new Content type and unckeck 'Display author and date information' and "posted by" still shows up. I can't figure out where is the problem.

This is likely a bug with the Marinelli theme and you should post it in the issue cue asap.

I have use marinelli-7.x-3.0-beta9 themes.
I have got this problem too.
But this problem solved for me :
1) go to : Structure -> Content Type

2) select "edit" for a content type and
3) unchecked "Display author and date information. "
4) Save Settings

step 2 -4 repeat every content type (or which is want to change it)
after do this and "clear all caches" my problem was solved.

Using the Blue Masters theme, as reference

Go to Structure.
Select Content types. * Pick the content type you're testing. *
Select edit. It's the first option under Operations.
Scroll down to Display settings. Select it.
Uncheck the radio box besides the option "Display author and date information."
You aren't done till you
Save content type.
You can clear the cache and run Cron afterwards but it might not be necessary.

Annoying when checking that box 'display author and date information' doesn't make it go away, which usually means there's something theme-specific making it still show up.

To get around it and make it go away for good, you can edit templates/node/node--article.tpl.php and take it out. However, this does it for every content type.
