[Resolved] Showing time as well as date?

Hey Tom!

Great news 🙂

I was thinking like the following:

“21 Jan 2019, 10.30pm “

As an example date in the format I’d like to achieve.

Cheers

That’s great thanks, the time is showing now. 🙂

I couldn’t see a way in the code though to change the date format. Is this possible?

Ideally I wanted to shorten the month I know how to do this in PHP date format just not sure where to change this.

Cheers!

Hey Tom,

Yeah I did see this but seems to only be to alter the time? Whilst I can add in the date here it still prints the date before this variable.

How can I alter the date format either before or disable it so I can add it in here?

Cheers

Hey

Yeah of course, the code I am using is as follows:

add_filter( 'wpsp_date_output', function( $output ) {
    $time_string = '<time class="wp-show-posts-entry-date published" datetime="%1$s" itemprop="datePublished">%2$s, %5$s</time>';

    if ( get_the_time( 'U' ) !== get_the_modified_time( 'U' ) ) {
        $time_string .= '<time class="wp-show-posts-updated" datetime="%3$s" itemprop="dateModified">%4$s, %5$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() ),
        get_the_date( 'g:ia' )
    );

    return sprintf(
        '<span class="wp-show-posts-posted-on wp-show-posts-meta">
	    <a href="%1$s" title="%2$s" rel="bookmark">%3$s</a>
        </span>',
        esc_url( get_permalink() ),
        esc_attr( get_the_time() ),
        $time_string
    );
} );

The code get_the_date( 'g:i a' ) only seems to be for the time part.

If you look here – https://www.ukairdates.com at the latest TV shows news at the top of the page it shows the date and time.

I want to customise how the date looks.

Thanks for any help you can provide!

It is yeah thanks Tom! 🙂
