[Resolved] Add current date to homepage & category pages

[oge]

Hi

Is there a way I can add the current date to my homepage title and category pages title?

Thanks

[Leo]

Hi there,

Where would you like to add it?

Let me know 🙂

My homepage title tag and category pages title tag

[David]

Hi there,

you can use a Hook Elememt – and select the after_logo hook. And add this PHP snippet:

<?php echo date('l jS F Y'); ?>

Hi

I can’t get this to work.

I have the display rules set for the entire site and all users.

I need the date to display in the page title.

Thanks

[David]

Can you link me to your site so i can see the setup?
When you say it doesn’t work – what does this mean – is nothing being displayed?

[oge]

Yes nothing is being displayed.

You can view my settings here – https://ilado73.imgbb.com/

That link requires a login to view.

Can you link me to the live site in question?

Make sure execute PHP is checked in element settings as well.

[oge]

How can I send you the link in private?

[Leo]

You can edit the original topic and use the private URL field.

[oge]

I have edited the topic and added my URL details.

Thanks

[David]

Can you try changing the Hook to the after_header_content hook

[oge]

Hi

It appears in the header area but how do I get it to display in the page title?

[David]

Change the code to this:

<p class="main-title" itemprop="headline">
	<?php echo 'My Site Title ' . date('l jS F Y'); ?>
</p>

And then disable the Site Title in the Customizer.
This way the title meta tag will preserve your actual site title.

Hi

How can I get the current date to display inside the title tag (<title></title>), either at the beginning or at the end?

Thanks
