 * if it shows on the front page, look into index.php.
    if it shows when you view
   single posts, look into single.php. it could additionally be in archive.php, 
   category.php, page.php and others. look for something like `the_time('F j')` 
   and change it to `the_time('j. F, Y')`

 * Michael .. I have a problem with dates simply not showing up at all in some posts.
   How do I resolve this issue? It doesn’t happen in every post, but only with some.
   For instance, I posted twice today and one of the posts doesn’t have a date on
   it. It simply has a comma where the date is supposed to be. Thanks for your help!
