I want to show “post updated date” on my blog

  • Hi,

    I am using “Blogghiamo1.8.9” free theme.

    But I have a question.

    How can I show the “post updated date”?

    I dont know why my blog always does not show “post updated date”.

    Long long time ago, I maybe erased “post updated date” part in the php source, I think.

    at line 31, in content-page.php, there is the code below on the theme. But I dont know why the “post updated date” is not shown.

    <span style=”display:none” class=”updated”><?php the_time(get_option(‘date_format’)); ?></span>

    Do you know any reasons?
    I want to solve the problem and show “post updated date”.

    Hope your reply soon.

    Best Regards

    Lots of issues here:

    1) The code in content-page.php is only for the display of PAGEs, not blog POSTs. So this has nothing to do with your blog posts.

    2) Even for PAGEs, the code clearly has the inline CSS style="display:none", which, if you didn’t realize, says… “hide or don’t display this thing”. That’s why even your PAGEs don’t show whatever this code is meant to do.

    3) Finally, even of the above were not deal-breakers, the actual PHP code <?php the_time(get_option(‘date_format’)); ?> doesn’t actually display the date a post/page was updated. The class="updated" is ONLY for styling, and has nothing to do with the date functionality

    For what you want, my first recommendation would be to ask for help in the theme’s own support forum, so the theme’s authoer can help you out.

    Hi George,

    Thank you for your reply.

    But I dont know about css or something like that.

    How can I show “post updated date” on my blog?
    If you have some knowledge of wordpress, please help me to solve this problem.

    Hope your reply soon.

    Best Regards.

    Sorry, I mistakenly posted an unfinished response ??

    Ig you want to show the date below the post (after the horizontal line), you can add this line of code in content-single.php, in the spot shown below:

    Updated: <?php the_modified_time('F jS, Y'); ?>

    Please note that editing the theme file directly is never recommended, as you’ll lose all your changes when you update the theme. The recommendation is to create a child theme and have your changes in the child theme.

    That said, for a one-liner like this, I wouldn’t mind editing the theme file directory ??
