• Hi – I want to customize the template tag for all posts (on the homepage and otherwise).

    I want the date, author, and category displayed right below the post title. Right now, there is only the date, which is above the post title.

    Any help would be appreciated!

    Hello, sorry for the delay getting back to you. To do this you’ll need to create a child theme (you could modify the theme directly, but you would loose your changes the next time the theme is updated). I would recommend working through this page to create a basic child theme. You will then need to follow the following steps (I can provide more specific help on them when you get to those points);

    1. Find the function daniela_entry_footer from the original theme and copy it into your child themes functions.php file. Modify this to include the date and any other information you want theme.

    2. Copy the files content.php and content-link.php into your child theme. Find the header html tags and modify them to call daniela_entry_footer().
    Find the footer and delete it.

    3. In your style.css make any style updates you need for spacing changes etc.

    Anyway, I hope that’s some help to you. Making a child theme can seem rather complex if you’re not used to this sort of thing, but if you want to have a go just take it one step at a time and come back if you have any questions.

    So I actually moved to your Elucidate theme, but I still want to do the same thing. I already have a child theme that I’ve used to make a some modifications, but I’m still stuck on this. I’ll try to follow the steps you’ve outlined, but if they are different for the Elucidate theme, let me know. Thanks again for the help.
