Help customizing content in the loop

  • Hello,

    I would like to add content to the loop (Author of post and date). I see in the codex that the loop can be modified. However, the instructions in the codex do not seem to apply to the 2015 theme.

    Does anyone know how this is done?

  • I’m not really sure what you’re asking. The author of a post and the date are already in Twenty Fifteen.

    The file you’re looking for is wp-content/themes/twentyfifteen/content.php, where on line 56 you’ll see the following code:

    <?php twentyfifteen_entry_meta(); ?>

    That code calls the twentyfifteen_entry_meta function from wp-content/themes/twentyfifteen/inc/template-tags.php, which creates the HTML for the entry meta. If you’re dealing with a post, not a page, and the post is singular (i.e., you’ve clicked through to a single post) or you’re dealing with a multi-author blog, the author’s name is displayed.

    Since the developer has considerately added the:

    if ( ! function_exists( 'twentyfifteen_entry_meta' ) ) :

    you should be able to override the built-in function by adding one to your child theme’s functions.php and output whatever you want.
