Hi!
Shjowing the publishing date and the edit date is not a bug. Makes sense on content heavy pages (like blogs) to show when a article was published initially and when it was updated.
If you want to remove the edit date open inc/template-tags.php and search for:
<time class=”updated” datetime=”%3$s”>%4$s</time>
Remove this.
If you working with a child theme copy the whole function:
function understrap_posted_on() {
$time_string = ‘<time class=”entry-date published updated” datetime=”%1$s”>%2$s</time>’;
if ( get_the_time( ‘U’ ) !== get_the_modified_time( ‘U’ ) ) {
$time_string = ‘<time class=”entry-date published” datetime=”%1$s”>%2$s</time><time class=”updated” datetime=”%3$s”>%4$s</time>’;
}
$time_string = sprintf( $time_string,
esc_attr( get_the_date( ‘c’ ) ),
esc_html( get_the_date() ),
esc_attr( get_the_modified_date( ‘c’ ) ),
esc_html( get_the_modified_date() )
);
$posted_on = sprintf(
esc_html_x( ‘Posted on %s’, ‘post date’, ‘understrap’ ),
‘‘ . $time_string . ‘‘
);
$byline = sprintf(
esc_html_x( ‘by %s’, ‘post author’, ‘understrap’ ),
‘<span class=”author vcard”>‘ . esc_html( get_the_author() ) . ‘</span>’
);
echo ‘<span class=”posted-on”>’ . $posted_on . ‘</span><span class=”byline”> ‘ . $byline . ‘</span>’; // WPCS: XSS OK.
}
to your child themes functions.php and than do the changes there.
