I have tried various ways to make the published day be displayed in the format of “Published X time ago” but have failed. The most successful attempt so far was with the Meks Time Ago WP plugin, but then it only applied its effect on the posts pages; it did not have any effect in the home page.
I deactivated that and put the following code in the functions.php file, to no avail. Of course I deactivated the aforementioned plugin.
function my_post_time_ago_function() {
return sprintf( esc_html__( '%s ago', 'textdomain' ), human_time_diff(get_the_time ( 'U' ), current_time( 'timestamp' ) ) );
}
add_filter( 'the_time', 'my_post_time_ago_function' );
What am I missing here? Please elaborate.
Hi,
Unfortunately there is no option for this, you can achieve the hours ago on blocks only with custom work.
For this you can use this article -> https://mekshq.com/change-wordpress-date-format-to-time-ago/ or the official documentation -> https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/human_time_diff/
There are also plugins that can be use for this -> https://wordpress.org/plugins/meks-time-ago/
If you want to use the “Time ago format” you need to use a single post template from tagDiv Cloud Library and edit it with tagDiv Composer click on single post date and enable the “Time ago format” -> https://www.screencast.com/t/2G5ogZnde0JZ
Thank you!
