Hi, i am very pleased for your help and with the potentiality of the theme GeneratePress.

Now i ask for the last things to improve the site if it is possible :

1. Put my language flags and insert a current date in a top header bar ?
2. Put a Breaking News Section above featured grid ?
3. Put another Featured News Category Caroussel Slider between Featured Grid and the Frontpage ?

I don't know if it is possible to be add to the the theme

Thanks a lot

Hi there,

1. You can move your Language Widget to the Top bar widget area.
To display the current date - Tom provides the code to create a shortcode here:

https://generatepress.com/forums/topic/shortcode-for-current-date/#post-632065

You can use that to add the date to a HTML widget in the top bar.

2. and 3. You can add use the Hook Element to insert content into the site:

The after_header hook can be used to place elements after your site header and navigation.

Hi David, When i put the clock code on 'CSS aditional' all code letters stay red

Sorry for the my last comment.

David i put the code

add_shortcode( 'custom_date', function() {
$time_string = '<time class="entry-date published" datetime="%1$s" itemprop="datePublished">%2$s</time>';

if ( get_the_time( 'U' ) !== get_the_modified_time( 'U' ) ) {
$time_string .= '<time class="updated" datetime="%3$s" itemprop="dateModified" style="display:none;">%4$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() )
);

$date = sprintf( '%3$s',
esc_url( get_permalink() ),
esc_attr( get_the_time() ),
$time_string
);

return $date;
} );

in the HTML Widget and nothing happens.

Say 'Please use tab for identation'.
