How do I edit my blog's author format in PHP?

Question

The author in my single blog posts displays as an icon followed by the name (see picture). Instead of this, I want it to display "By: Author's Name" with no icon.

It's been a long time since I've played around with PHP code. My website uses the Integral Pro Wordpress Theme. Can anyone clarify how I can modify this feature?

Answer 1

That is difficult to answer because there is a lot of things that we don't know, but, the process will be identifying the php file that handles the author display, copy the file over your child theme, edit where appropriate and run to see if it works.
