This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem:
The issue here was that the customer wanted to hide the Post meta on his CPTs
Solution:
The solution to this is to inspect the page using the google chrome or your browsers page inspection too to find the html that is displaying the post meta.
Then you will just set it using css to display: none;
So e.g you will add this custom css to your site.
.someclass{
display: none;
}

This is the technical support forum for Toolset - a suite of plugins for developing WordPress sites without writing PHP.
Everyone can read this forum, but only Toolset clients can post in it. Toolset support works 6 days per week, 19 hours per day.
> What you're saying is that you only want this CPT to not have the Meta?
Yes.
> Are you using a content template for this cpt ?
Yes. It is a new CPT made with Toolset.
Thanks for your help y.S.
But this should not be supported natively by Toolset without having to override single.php?
This is a basic functionality that must be included in the Toolset core.
I would say, why not use the options that WordPress has included especially for this?
Be aware there is a difference between filing a feature request and reporting something is broken.
Being just a user trying to help, I will leave it up to the Toolset rep to help you work out a solution.
Good luck.
Do not get me wrong y.S, I appreciate your help, but I consider that Toolset is a set of plugins to avoid using php when creating new CPT's. As with Tooset you can define if you want to show or not the title of the page, you must also be able to define if you want to show or not the metadata of the page. Do not you think like me?
I am new to Toolset, but very familiar with developing plugins for WordPress. I am a programmer.
Toolset can be used without custom coding, but you can do way more tricks with it when you are familiar with coding.
Should Toolset incorporate all these features? I don't think so.
Every test (show or not show) that needs to be done, can be looked upon as a door. The more tests, the more doors to open, the bigger the delay to get to the endresult.
So in this case, as a programmer, if default posts need to be displayed different from a certain cpt, I would go with the dedicated single-....php file
I do not want that with Toolset anything can be done y.S, it is evident that not all possible scenarios can be covered, however, what we are talking about is the basic and minimum things, this functionality is a minimum. As I said, it does not make sense to include the ability to hide the title and yet not be able to hide the metadata.
I'm talking about minimums, only minimums, of course, Toolset can not cover all possible scenarios.
Thank you for your comments.
Best regards,

Actually I can't even reproduce your screens.
You say you can disable 'Title' in Views. But your screenshot seems to be from Content Template.
On my my Content Template screen I have no section 'Theme Options'.
Seems this disabling feature is part of your theme rather than Toolset.
Or... I missed a checkbox.
Yes. Now it works correctly.
But, where have you added the CSS to work correctly?
I have to know if I create new CPT's so I can fix it in each one of them.
Please, do not delay your answers so long.
