 * Without knowing your theme or seeing your site, I can only suggest you will need
   to move the [template tag](http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags), [the_time](http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags/the_time)
   or [the_date](http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags/the_date), in your theme’s
   index.php file.

 * Look in your theme’s index.php and locate the_title and the_time (or the_date).
 * You want to move all the code pertaining to the_time or the_date to after the_title.
 * For example, in the following code:
 * `<div><h2 id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>"><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel
   ="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title(); ?>"><?php the_title();?
   ></a></h2><?php the_time('F js, Y') ?></div>`
 * I moved `<?php the_time('F js, Y') ?>` to after everything between the `<h2>`
   and `</h2>` tags (which contain the_title).
