   I'm looking for a way to hide the post date for particular posts. For example, I have a "sticky post" on my index page that I don't want to display the date for. I would like the other posts on the page to show the date.

   Is there a way to set whether to show/hide the date on a post-by-post basis, or a way to hide the date on sticky posts only?

   Thanks!

   I just tested this and it worked.

   On index.php, you will see something like
   <?php the_time('M jS, Y'); ?>

   Just use this, so that when the post is sticky, it won't display

   <?php if (!is_sticky() ) { ?>
   <?php the_time('M jS, Y'); ?>
   <?php }
   ?>

   Great work - it works perfectly on our basic, but modified Kubrick theme.

   Thanks! In my case, I wanted to erase all the things that are published by the theme if the post is sticky.
   So I set the if(!is_sticky()) around the <p> tag. So
   

   <p class="timestamp"><?php the_time('j F, Y (H:i)') ?> | <?php the_category(', ') ?> | By: <?php the_author(); ?><?php edit_post_link('[e]',' | ',''); ?></p>

   became:
   

   <?php if (!is_sticky() ) { ?>
   <p class="timestamp"><?php the_time('j F, Y (H:i)') ?> | <?php the_category(', ') ?> | By: <?php the_author(); ?><?php edit_post_link('[e]',' | ',''); ?></p>
   <?php } ?>

   Just for the search engine Visitors.. ;-)
