Mixing
Disable title / author in the HTML output of bookdown
In Bookdown, if you provide the title and the author of your book in index.Rmd like so:
---
title: "My New Book"
author: "John Doe"
(...)
---
It uses this information to generate a nice (and common) first page in the PDF output, with the title centered, and the author's name below that.
But in the HTML output, the title and the author's name is just put there at the top of the index page.
As I've seen on www.bookdown.org, the HTML version of most books start with this text, and then display the cover image of the book right after that anyway. (Like the book above or this one.) I think if the cover image was at the top here, it would look much better.
Can the title / author part be disabled for HTML output?
I haven't found an example where it was removed, so I'm not sure if this is possible. I've tried removing it from index.Rmd, but then it is removed from the PDF too, which I don't want.
(I use the Bootstrap style.)

I've found a workaround for this.
Add a css property to bookdown::html_book in _output.yml:
bookdown::html_book:
(...)
css: style.css
In this file (style.css), add:
.author,.title{
display: none;
}
This will apply this CSS to the output HTML. Although it will still contain the title and author lines, but they won't be displayed.
