Date link not working
4 replies · Started by Melanie Jongsma on April 10, 2020
When I click on the date link of a post, the link opens only that post. I thought it would generate a list of all the articles posted on that date, similar to how clicking on the author link gives me all articles posted by that author.
Is there a setting I need to change in Customize? Or did something happen in the most recent GeneratePress update? I'm not even sure what this date link is called or where to find its settings. I appreciate any direction someone can offer!
Thank you.
Hi there,
It should work by default and there is no settings to change how it works.
Any chance you can disable all plugins except GP Premium to eliminate conflicts from other plugins first?
Let me know :)
I disabled all my plugins, even GP Premium eventually, but the date link continued to open the article. I tried several different dates, from the home page as well as within a single article.
It's not a feature I use often, so I don't know when the change happened. I'm using a new ad server, so I thought that might be the conflict, but turning odd that plugin didn't help.
I'm very sorry - I just actually noticed that the date links to single posts is actually the default behaviour, unlike the author link.
It is the same in a twenty series WP theme as well.
In this case, would you want to remove the link instead?

Is there a way to change it to collect all the stories on that date? Like a code snippet I could add or something?
