   Hello,

   I want to add the current date in my right navbar. I know how to use the echo date function. But i only can use the the_time function, becouse it need to be into dutch date format.

   When i place <?php the_time('j F Y'); ?> it only shows the last post date.

   What do it need to do to make in show the current date?

   Please help.

   The <?php echo date('j F Y'); ?> function shows the date in English format. The the_time function shows it on my website in Dutch. So i need to use the the_time function. But how to make it show the current date.

   you should use somethimg like this:
   <span class="current-date"><?php echo date_i18n('j F Y', time()); ?></span>
   now you can play with your style.css. just add the following lines:
   

   .current-date {
         color: #fff;
   }

   it should work.
