Customize Blog Mini layout meta

[Integrity]

Hi,

Please help to figured out, in which file an I customize the “Blog Mini” blog layout – http://swiftideas.com/blog/blog-mini-sidebar – post meta row?
For example I’d like to modify this (in bold):

Sharp looks for 2015

}

Unfortunately it’s only possible to remove all of the details as they are all a part of the same div

OK, it’s not a CSS problem, so: what php file contains this blog layout/elements?

Thank you, but I need to describe exactly the php file which contain this – I don’t want to modify functions.php.

[Kyle – SUPPORT]

If you edit the file directly, it will be overwritten when you update the theme

It’s better to add the code above to your Child Theme’s functions.php file
