   How to display on the first page when the article was submit, for example: 18 days ago, 2 minutes ago and to display the date on the other pages.
   I understand it should use a if else condition.
   Thanks.

   have you located the code where the date/time is displayed?

   possible conditional tags to use:

   is_home() http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/is_home
   or
   is_front_page() http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/is_front_page

   is_paged() http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/is_paged

   thanks for your answer.

   This code didn't worked.

   <?php
   if ( is_front_page() ) {
       echo human_time_diff(get_the_time('U'), current_time('timestamp')) . ' ago';
   } else {
      echo 'x';
   }
   ?>

   Is just displaying like "2 hours ago" even if I'm on page 2.

   even if I'm on page 2

   that is what is_paged() is for.

   example:
   if ( is_front_page() && !is_paged() )

   or try:

   if ( is_home() && !is_paged() )

   Worked with this, thank you sir.

   <?php
   if ( is_home() && !is_paged() ) {
       echo human_time_diff(get_the_time('U'), current_time('timestamp')) . ' ago';
   } else {
      echo the_time('d.m.Y');
   }
   ?>
