I'm using the DPL parameter "firstrevisionsince=dateandoptionaltime" , to display articles after 20080430. One results is as follows: 23:57, 2 May 2008 : Insurance Programs . . JSmith --- I would like for the end result to be: Insurance Programs --Displaying only the article and removing the timestamp and the editor's name. How can I turn the timestamp/editor results off?
