Wrong Date Showing on Front Page

Posted in: Newspaper

All the dates on the front page are today’s date! When I click on the post and go through to the single post page, the date is correct. What is overriding the actual post date on my home page and how do I fix it?

I’ve just realized the date that showing is in fact the last modified date (I updated all our tags today, so every post has been modified). This seems very odd. None of the flexblocks have the ‘show modified date’ option checked.

How do I get the homepage to only show the published date?

The same problem also appears, I note, in the Category template pages.

Hello @westropMEF!

Yes, by default this setting is off because is an extra option to show the date and also to show modified date. But, you can enable it from General tab -> Extra of flex block’s element. For more information, please check our guide here: https://forum.tagdiv.com/flex-block-settings-guide/
If you have a global template, then you need to edit only one category and the setting will apply on all your categories. For homepage, you need to edit it with the TagDiv Composer and apply the settings, or you can copy-paste the element which is already set as you like.

Thank you!

Hello Bettina,

As mentioned above, none of the Flex Blocks have the ‘show modified date’ selected

(and to clarify, I do not want the modified date to show, and yet it does for every date).

Are you referring to a different setting?

I figured it out. If anyone else is wondering, in theme panel, under block settings, there’s a section titled Meta Info on Modules/Blocks. The ‘Show Modified Date’ there had been turned on when I updated the theme.
