Remove author from catBox

[Balrost]

I am using Catagory boxes to link to articles in side blocks.  What I would like to do is remove the reference to the author from the link in the catBox. 

I am sure it is simply removing the author varible from the echo, I may be wrong tho, but I am not sure where the catBox is getting its code. 

Can someone point me to the right file to edit out the author var.

Thanks.

I also wanted this- because all of the articles on my site are from me, which loads the screen up with my name...

What I ended up doing is making a link in the menubox for the article's URL. This avoided future problems in modifying the code; however, you do have to add/remove as needed to adjust the menu's options.

This would make a good feature request, though.  :coolsmiley:
