    hi,

    i’m using <?php the_date(‘l j F Y’); ?> inside the loop and with some posts (yes, posts not pages) it outputs nothing. categories and tags are fine. when i go to single, the date shows.

    any ideas?

    is it for posts made on the same date?

    the_date only shows once per date. So if you make 5 posts on a given date, the_date will only output the date on one post

    use the_time instead, with date formatting

    <?php the_time('l j F Y'); ?>
