[Resolved] Disable Post Date

[Sean]

I used the option to disable content title. Is there a way to disable the date?

[Tom]

You can using our Blog add-on in “Customize > Blog > Blog Content”.

[Sean]

The only issue with that, is it also disables it on the index. I just want it disabled in the post only. Since in the post it looks better if I just include the date in the pageheader.

[Tom]

Try this:

add_filter( 'generate_post_date','generate_remove_single_date' );
function generate_remove_single_date()
{
    // If we're on a single post, remove the date
    if ( is_single() )
        return false;

    // Or else, show it
    return true;
}

Works like a charm, solved!

[Tom]

Great 🙂

It says “Editing generate-simple-php/custom.php (inactive)” and doesn’t function as it used to. Using the Simple PHP plugin.

[Tom]

I don’t think the (inactive) means anything. As long as the plugin is active in the plugins area it should work.

[Sean]

Figured out what was wrong. I thought I could only use the .zip plugin that you linked, but you do indeed need the one you linked to the WP plugins catalog.

[Tom]

That’s very odd – but I’m glad you were able to resolve it.
