   I want to arrange my posts in a specific way, which first involves grouping them by month and year. However, I can't write the function to do for reasons that are probably simple that I am not getting.

   Within a foreach(myposts) loop (included below), I've tried stripping the year from both the_date_xml and the_modified_date, but in both cases, all my function does is display the output of either of those. How can I get that output into a temporary variable to play with? Or How else can I get just "2008" from each post in a loop?

   function display_travels(){
    global $post;
    $myposts = get_posts();
    foreach($myposts as $post) :
       if (the_modified_date(Y) == "2008") :
          echo "IF TRUE";
       endif;
    endforeach;
   }

   Try:

   <?php $post_date = mysql2date("Y", $post->post_date_gmt);
   echo 'post year is  '. $post_date;
   ?>
