Add ability to display/hide author and timestamp per content type

Added in latest release. Thanks!

Haven't heard any complaints. Closing the issue.

Is there any way to configure to hide the username and timestamps in the comments for each of these content type.

By un-checking the radio button in Administer -> Themes -> Global setting -> Display post information on doesn't apply to the comments for these content types.

Are there configuration options there? or I have to modify the codes?

Please advice.

@ivanhwg: The Author Taxonomy module overrides the username and timestamps for nodes, not comments. Because comments don't use taxonomy terms (tags), this module can't be used to attribute comments to authors.

It may be possible to add a new feature to this module that would change the timestamp pattern of comments to match that of the node, but that's stretching the scope of this module. Comments, both in terms of data and theming, are handled very differently than nodes.

To more directly answer your question: Yes, you will probably have to change some code. Drupal 6.x themes can allow showing/hiding comments' usernames and timestamps through the themes settings page, but I can't think of any themes that actually do that. You will probably need to change your theme's comment.tpl.php file and remove the lines that output this information.

I have two content types where the authoring information shows up, despite the option being turned off in Administer -> Themes -> Global setting -> Display post information. The other content types do not show authoring information, as desired. Any ideas as to where else I could look to fix this?

Itam: This should be posted as a new bug report. The issue you're looking at now is a feature request that was added and closed.

If you don't know how to do this, please let me know. When you post this is a new issue, please list the content types for which author information appears and the modules that created them (if any).
