How To Remove Comment Dates?

[HereIComes]

How can I remove comment dates so that Google bots won't see the comment dates? I had an unfruitful google search section on the same just now. Any help is appreciated.

you probably in comments.php, see if you can find something very similar to:
<div class="comment-meta commentmetadata"><a href="<?php .......?>"><?php comment_date() ?></a></div>


then delete it -
or maybe better just 'comment it out' like so:
<!-- <div class="comment-meta commentmetadata"><a href="<?php .......?>"><?php comment_date() ?></a></div> -->


and delete if you are sure you have done the right thing ;-)

you forgot to mention that you must never ever edit the actual core code, always do it in a child theme and never actual theme

Yep, otherwise if or when you update the theme, any changes that you make will be reverted.
