   I have just launched a new website but when I publish more than one post a day only the most recent post has a date.

   EXAMPLE:

   March 18 3pm (has date)
   March 18 2pm (no date)
   March 18 1pm (no date)

   March 17 2pm (has date)
   March 17 2pm (no date)

   March 16 2pm (has date)
   March 16 2pm (no date)

   Does anyone know what could be causing this?

   Thanks for your help!

   Review the template tag, the_date().

   It says:

   SPECIAL NOTE: When there are multiple posts on a page published under the SAME DAY, the_date() only displays the date for the first post (that is, the first instance of the_date()). To repeat the date for posts published under the same day, you should use the Template Tag the_time() with a date-specific format string.
