Line breaks within the_date? Or something else?

  • It’s possible that it’s late and I just can’t figure this ’cause my brain’s foggy.

    I’d like to call the date of a series of posts only once per day, and I would also like to use a line break between each item in the date call.

    e.g.

    tue
    07
    mar

    I can of course do this by using multiple calls to the_time, but then I get it with every post, and not just once per day as I’d like. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

    Backslashes as escape characters.

    For anyone else looking for this solution, I ended up doing this:

    <div id="postdate" class="<?php the_time('M','','') ?>"><?php the_date('D\<\b\r\/\>d\<\b\r\/\>M','',''); ?></div>
