Thanks @diagonale, that’s not exactly what I’m looking for.

Lower is the code from twentytwenty child theme functions.php.

It’s almost done, except one thing -> Checking of the post meta variables/values does not work. For example if some post does not have a tag, empty HTML is shown.

add_action( 'after_setup_theme', function() {
	add_filter( 'twentytwenty_post_meta_location_single_top', function() {
		?>
			<div class="post-meta-wrapper<?php echo esc_attr( $post_meta_wrapper_classes ); ?>">
				<ul class="post-meta<?php echo esc_attr( $post_meta_classes ); ?>">
				<?php
					if ( ! empty ( 'post-date' ) ) {
				?>
					<li class="post-date meta-wrapper">
						<span class="meta-icon">
							<span class="screen-reader-text"><?php _e( 'Post date', 'twentytwenty' ); ?></span>
							<?php twentytwenty_the_theme_svg( 'calendar' ); ?>
						</span>
						<span class="meta-text">
							<a href="<?php echo get_day_link(get_post_time('Y'), get_post_time('m'), get_post_time('j'));  ?>"><?php the_time( get_option( 'date_format' ) ); ?></a>
						</span>
					</li>
				<?php
					}
					else { echo 'nothing1'; }
				?>
				<?php
					if ( ! empty ( 'tags' ) ) {
				?>
					<li class="post-tags meta-wrapper">
						<span class="meta-icon">
							<span class="screen-reader-text"><?php _e( 'Tags', 'twentytwenty' ); ?></span>
							<?php twentytwenty_the_theme_svg( 'tag' ); ?>
						</span>
						<span class="meta-text">
							<?php the_tags( '', ', ', '' ); ?>
						</span>
					</li>
				<?php
					}
					else { echo 'nothing2'; }
				?>
				<?php
					if ( ! empty ( 'comments' ) ) {
				?>
					<li class="post-comment-link meta-wrapper">
						<span class="meta-icon">
							<?php twentytwenty_the_theme_svg( 'comment' ); ?>
						</span>
						<span class="meta-text">
							<?php comments_popup_link(); ?>
						</span>
					</li>
				<?php
					}
					else { echo 'nothing3'; }
				?>
				</ul>
			</div>
		<?php
		}
	);
	} 
);

Here are some similar questions:

• hide the text “no comments” – thx @alchymyth
• How to remove the hyperlink of the DATE appearing after post title – copying parts of code from /inc/template-tags.php into child theme functions does not work
• Changing Template Tags – yes, work with filters; thx @joyously
• How to add publish date to pages, just like posts – this is where I get the code above; thx again @alchymyth ??

Hey
Instead of get_template_directory_uri() use get_stylesheet_directory_uri() to get the child theme’s directory.

Hi @philhuhn, thanks, but this (URI link change) does not solve my problem. Even with this code require get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/inc/template-tags.php' it’s impossible to load that piece of lovely code. Finally, after some RTFM readings I know why (links in my previous post).

Anyway -> Problem solved, here’s an updated child theme functions.php:

add_action( 'after_setup_theme', function() {
	add_filter( 'twentytwenty_post_meta_location_single_top', function() {
		?>
			<div class="post-meta-wrapper<?php echo esc_attr( $post_meta_wrapper_classes ); ?>">
				<ul class="post-meta<?php echo esc_attr( $post_meta_classes ); ?>">
					<li class="post-date meta-wrapper">
						<span class="meta-icon">
							<span class="screen-reader-text"><?php _e( 'Post date', 'twentytwenty' ); ?></span>
							<?php twentytwenty_the_theme_svg( 'calendar' ); ?>
						</span>
						<span class="meta-text">
							<a href="<?php echo get_day_link(get_post_time('Y'), get_post_time('m'), get_post_time('j'));  ?>"><?php the_time( get_option( 'date_format' ) ); ?></a>
						</span>
					</li>
				<?php
					$post_tags = get_the_tags();
					if ( ! empty ( $post_tags ) ) {
				?>
					<li class="post-tags meta-wrapper">
						<span class="meta-icon">
							<span class="screen-reader-text"><?php _e( 'Tags', 'twentytwenty' ); ?></span>
							<?php twentytwenty_the_theme_svg( 'tag' ); ?>
						</span>
						<span class="meta-text">
							<?php the_tags( '', ', ', '' ); ?>
						</span>
					</li>
				<?php
					}
					//else { echo 'no tags'; }
				?>
				<?php
					if ( ! empty ( $comments ) ) {
				?>
					<li class="post-comment-link meta-wrapper">
						<span class="meta-icon">
							<?php twentytwenty_the_theme_svg( 'comment' ); ?>
						</span>
						<span class="meta-text">
							<?php comments_popup_link(); ?>
						</span>
					</li>
				<?php
					}
					//else { echo 'no comments'; }
				?>
				<?php
					if ( is_sticky() ) {
				?>
					<li class="post-sticky meta-wrapper">
						<span class="meta-icon">
							<?php twentytwenty_the_theme_svg( 'bookmark' ); ?>
						</span>
						<span class="meta-text">
							<?php _e( 'Sticky post', 'twentytwenty' ); ?>
						</span>
					</li>
				<?php
					}
					//else { echo 'not a sticky post'; }
				?>
				</ul>
			</div>
		<?php
		}
	);
	} 
);

And remove tags in the bottom:

add_filter(
	'twentytwenty_post_meta_location_single_bottom',
	array(
		//'tags',
	)
);
