    Is there a way to have the author and date information show in the entry-meta area on pages (in addition to posts) in Twenty Twelve?

    Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

    You will need to start customising your theme’s template files via a child theme.

    I already have a child theme in place, thank you.

    My knowledge of PHP is limited, but it appears that both posts and pages use content.php to display content, is that correct? content.php in turn calls a function to populate the entry-meta section. What I can’t figure out is why single posts have author and date info in entry-meta, but pages do not.

    I appear to have figured it out. Page content in TwentyTwelve is displayed via content-page.php (seems obvious when you think about it), so it looks like that’s the file I need to edit in order to get the author and date info to appear.
