Right, so it looks like what you did was remove the <+day_entry+> 
element; not sure in what context this contains date/author info, but my 
memory is a bit foggy...

I *think* the relevant concept here is that changes to quick/erb plugins 
in hobix.yaml will apply globally to any kind of page that uses said 
plugin; essentially, what you added to hobix.yaml overrides the output 
of entries_erb anywhere that it is called.  So I think you need to make 
the change at a lower level, probably in index.html.quick for the page 
that should have less info, and in entry.html.quick for the one that 
should have more... but again, I'm not clear on exactly where you want 
what displayed.

Frederick's tutorial #2 
<http://sl33p3r.free.fr/hobix-tutorials/hobix-tut-2-en.html> lays this 
out pretty well, if you haven't already seen it... HTH.
