Editing Post Template to move date

  • WordPress has gotten quite complex.

    I have the latest install (for about the next 19 minutes…) and am having problems figuring out why I cannot simply modify the Post Template to remove a horizontal rule and move the date to a different location.

    Theme: TwentyTwentyOne
    Child Theme: Yes (but not heavily modded)
    Version: 5.9.3

    Anyhow, if you look about 3/4 the way down the main page, you can see that I have current posts there (“CAR WASH!” and “Kids in eSports…”). They have the Title, Excerpt, a HR line, and the date below it, which looks like it’s part of the article below. I want to alter that, whether through code or by “block editing” or what-have-you.

    Any and all help would be appreciated. And yes, I looked through the forums and documentation and have been up and down the wp-includes and theme files looking for what I need. Hopefully someone has the brief answer so I can kick myself.

    Thanks a bunch!

    I thought maybe this would have been an easy thing. Perhaps others are as stumped as I am?

    Hi,
    First, I strongly suggest you to update your WordPress version to the latest one.

    Then, about your topic, you can easily do this with CSS and the Grid property.
    Here’s an example:

    1. Set .post-template-default.single-post article as grid container (only for posts, not for post shown in archive pages)
    2. If you check with the Developer tools, you’ll see that element has three children (header, entry-content and footer)
    3. In your grid template, move footer above the entry content
    4. Remove the border from the footer ??

    I hope this helps!
