# Comments Displaying Wrong Date

 * This is very strange. I have the following code in functions.php to display the
   time and author of comments:
 *     ```
       <p class="commentMeta"><?php comment_time('F m, Y');?> at <?php comment_time('G:i a T');?> | <?php comment_author_link();?> writes:</p>
       ```
   
 * But the date displayed is radically wrong. Today’s comments, for example, are
   listed as “August 8”. In the WP back-end the dates are correct, only on the display
   are they wrong.
 * Ideas?

 * Try using `<?php comment_time('F d, Y');?>`.
