 * At first, I’ve never edit any core files.. Using a custom theme with few elegant
   plugins from Wp/plugins. in single-news.php(yes, custom post type), I used `<
   div class="taxonomy-description">Posted on <?php the_date(); ?> By <?php get_the_author();?
   > </div>` to print post date and author, It return something like
 * >  Posted on February 21, 2015February 26, 2015 by cleartroop
 * If I post normally normally then It shows one date but if I edit date and set
   custom date then the date shows twice!, Again, If I edit the post then the post
   date shows twice (The date I edited the post)(Original posted date). I only have
   to show the date I edited the post.
