This can be better handled by the Submitted By module.

I don't see a setting for Created By... in 6.x-1.x is this a 6.x-2.x feature?

Thanks
Robert

This is even in 5.x. The setting is titled "Display link information."

Again, this is an effort to move the function to closer to core functioning.

I do need to let you know that, currently, Submitted By does not allow "created on ... updated on ..." where the "updated" is optional, although it has been requested. Since the Token folks don't seem to want it, I guess we'll have to do it in Submitted By.

These look like two diff things. Submitted by allows you to control the formation of the what is display. Display Link Information controls if the information is displayed or not. I don't think of these two as the same thing.

Thanks

Theme settings control whether you show it at all (standard core), and Submitted by allows the user more control over what is displayed (as it can do for any core-supported content type).

I think we are agreeing here. The option currently either display or not. Submitted by would be a much better option for changing what is displayed. How easy is it in submitted by to remove them completely?

Thanks
Robert

In Submitted by, there is an addition the the Content type admin page to specify how it should look. To remove it completely one would just go to the theme configure page and uncheck "Web links" for the display (standard core UI).

For the change over, the hook_update_N should check the current setting and turn the theme option on or off.

Here's what it looks like with Submitted by set up as Contributed by [realname-link], [created-updated].

The main setting is gone, but a new setting in the checker module was needed (and should have been there before). The theme code is removed, so rebuilding the theme registry (clear cache) is needed.
