The Disable Elements add-on in GP Premium allows you to disable certain elements on your individual pages and posts.
Starting in GP Premium 1.7, you can also use the Layout Element to disable these elements site-wide.
To use this add-on, first make sure GP Premium is installed, and that the add-on is activated.
Once activated, you』ll find the options in the Layout metabox.
To disable the various elements, simply check the box next to their name.
Video Overview
This filter returns the HTML that displays your post date along with your blog posts.
You can use this filter to completely overwrite the HTML given, or even add to it.
For example, if you wanted to add a clock icon before your date, you could do this:
Only Show Updated Date
By default, the HTML for the published date and updated date (if it exists) is added to your site. The updated date is hidden with CSS.
In some cases, you might only want the updated date HTML to display. Then this filter can be used:
add_filter( 'generate_post_date_show_updated_only', '__return_true' );
Add Icon to Date
add_filter( 'generate_post_date_output','tu_add_to_post_date' );
function tu_add_to_post_date( $output ) {
return ' ' . $output;
}
Remove Link from Date
add_filter( 'generate_post_date_output', function( $output, $time_string ) {
printf( '%s ',
$time_string
);
}, 10, 2 );
As you can see, this filter is very powerful and gives you full control over your post dates.
The generate_is_using_hatom filter allows you turn off the hatom output.
add_filter( 'generate_is_using_hatom', '__return_false' );
Please note that WordPress ignores metabox values on index pages like blog and archive so this meta box won』t work for those pages.

Content Container
Where Is It?
The Layout is usually located at the bottom right corner of the block editor screen:
If you don』t see the metabox there, make sure to enable it under Options setting:
The generate_has_default_loop filter allows you to remove the default post loop query from GeneratePress so you can hook in your own.
add_filter( 'generate_has_default_loop', '__return_false' );
The generate_post_navigation_args filter allows you to modify the markup of post navigation.
Starting in GP Premium 1.7, the Layout element allows you to set the same options you』re used to in the Layout metabox, but on a site-wide scale.
This means you can change the sidebar layout on specific categories for example, or set the content layout to full width on your entire site if you』re using a page builder everywhere.
This element is a massive time saver.
By default, GeneratePress will now combine unsemantic-grid.css, style.css and mobile.css into one file. This results in fewer HTTP requests.
Existing sites will turn this option off by default to prevent any potential conflicts.
When combined, GeneratePress will use a slimmed down version of unsemantic-grid.css, which only includes the classes that are needed by the theme to function.
This option is unavailable for Flexbox version of the theme.
The generate_after_do_template_part hook appears at the end of generate_do_template_part() function.
This function is responsible for displaying the content on your page. In archives, it displays each post.
We can use this hook to display something after each post, or after a specific post. For example, this function will output text after the 4th post in your archives:
add_action( 'generate_after_do_template_part', function() {
global $wp_query;
if ( 3 === $wp_query->current_post ) {
echo 'Look at me after the fourth post';
}
} );
GeneratePress loads the child theme stylesheet by default if a child theme is active.
The generate_load_child_theme_stylesheet filter allows you to disable that so you can add your own child theme stylesheet.
add_filter( 'generate_load_child_theme_stylesheet', '__return_false' );
