# Adding post date to recent posts list?

 * I’m using the recent posts plugin from the wordpress wiki [http://wiki.wordpress.org/Recent%20Posts](http://wiki.wordpress.org/Recent%20Posts)
   and it’s quite simple…I like that. I’m using it on 1.5.1.3 so I just saved the
   whole thing as a php file, uploaded it to the plugins folder, and activated it.
   However I’d like to add the post date after the link to the post, I tried modifying
   the code myself but it didn’t work, I got parse errors and stuff (mind you I 
   don’t even know php).
 * Could someone help me with this?
 * Thanks.

 * I’m glad that is working for you, but it was written for v1.2. I bet you got 
   some errors.
 * Try Coffee2Code’s customizable post listings:
    [http://www.coffee2code.com/wp-plugins/](http://www.coffee2code.com/wp-plugins/)
 * I bet that will work better for you.
 * And the new “wiki” is the WordPress Codex at [http://codex.wordpress.org](http://codex.wordpress.org).
   The old wiki has been transferred almost totally over to this site and features
   a LOT of helpful articles and information.

 * Actually, it’s working fine for me. I had a friend modify it so that it shows
   the date just like I wanted. But that one you pointed out looks a lot more customizable
   and has more features. Think I’ll check it out. 😉
