XF 2.1 Hide this line in 'Latest posts'

[JackieChun]

I'd like to make the 'Latest posts' widget more compact. How do you hide the name of the forum (highlighted in the screenshot)?

Edit: now that I think about it, I also want to hide the phrase "Latest:" and the name of the user.

Edit 2: I also wouldn't mind reducing the font size in the thread title

Oh dear - no response since Dec 2019. Here is another example of poor documentation - where is this covered in the manual? If this user still has no answers in mid Feb 2020 it looks bad. I'm interested in this idea too. In my case I would like to expand what appears in the widget to show the first line of text of the latest posts (and remove the not needed clutter - as requested above).
Many thanks,
Regards, Mike

This specific question? Nowhere (it's waay to specific)
How to modify templates? https://xenforo.com/xf2-docs/manual/styles/#templates

The template that defines the HTML for this widget is widget_new_posts

@Mikethemix add in extra.less

.contentRow-minor {
    display: none;
}

Many thanks.

@Mikethemix add in extra.less

.contentRow-minor {
    display: none;
}

That's used in more places than just the widget, I'd add a little more specific selector to it, for example, the latest posts widget ideally would be the following:

[data-widget-definition="new_posts" ] .contentRow-minor {
    display: none;
}

Many thanks Russ, I'll give that a try - do I insert that in extra.less or some other template (specific to the widget)?

Yes, extra.less

Hi Russ, thanks for your suggestion. However what I am seeking is to display the first line (or maybe two) of the new post.
Any thoughts on that?
Regards,
Mike

Guys, before I break something: how do I hide the phrase "Latest: " in the Latest posts widget and "Started by " in the Latest threads widget (both in the sidebar only).

I was able to make most of these changes by editing the thread_list_macros template. Good advice in this thread:

XF 2.0 - New posts widget

Does anyone know where to look for the editing of the new posts widget? I wanted to change the ordering of the post and date etc. Screenshot attached. Thanks.
