Add Post Date to Top Posts & Pages Widget

You can use the jetpack_widget_top_posts_after_post action to add data after each post in the widget.

To get started, you can paste the following code in your theme’s functions.php file, or in a functionality plugin

/**
 * Top Posts Widget: add post date below each post.
 */
function jeherve_add_date_top_posts( $post_id ) {

        $post_date = get_post_time(
                get_option( 'date_format' ),
                true,
                $post_id,
                true
        );

        printf( '<span class="top_posts_date">%s</span>', $post_date );
}
add_action( 'jetpack_widget_top_posts_after_post', 'jeherve_add_date_top_posts' );

I hope this helps.

Hi Jeremy

It certainly does help and is now installed in my functionality plugin. Many thanks for your support!

Best wishes for 2016!
