• How can I move the post date above the post title? I’m using the CMS Semiologic theme, great for content management, but I’ve tried in vain looking inside captions.php and index.php for anything that might indicate how to order title and date. Any insight?

  • Simply move the function the_date(); above the the_title(); call and it should work fine. I believe it will be in your index.php file under your theme.

    Thank you for the advice. However, I can’t find these functions in index.php or any other file. The index.php file contains only the following:

    <?php
    require_once dirname(__FILE__) . ‘/install.php’;

    require_once(TEMPLATEPATH . ‘/header.php’);

    if ( function_exists(‘sem_display_posts’) )
    sem_display_posts();

    require_once(TEMPLATEPATH . ‘/footer.php’);
    ?>

    I don’t believe anything here pertains to date or time. But maybe it does; I’m sort of new to this.

    correct. it’s in the sem-theme/sem-theme.php file. but as I am reworking it some bit to ease customization by users, you’ll likely want to wait, say, a short week, and get it in more “mainstream” wordpress format.

    Denis-de-Bernardy, I must say I like the way that wordpress originaly controls the content… it’s much more customizable, at least for someone who doesn’t know much about php (like me). So instead of sem_display_posts I’m using a normal loop.

    well, adding the one click installs generally involves a hefty layer of if else statements. most users wouldn’t know how to maintain them, and those who do aren’t very likely to use my theme.

    but anyway I’ve found your theme and some of the plugins added to the package very useful… the thing i was writing earlier is the only ‘drawback’ (maybe someone else wouldn’t call it like that) of your project… oh! and the table design :] I’m more into divs 😉 but thanks anyway!

    Denis-de-Bernardy: thanks for the info. I think I’ll leave well enough alone, for now anyway, and wait for the more “mainstream” WP file.
