• Hello, my website is using twenty fourteen theme and I have made some changes to CSS. Everything works good except the date part. I want to show modified date on top of the post instead of published date. I found this code

    <?php
    
    /**
     * Print HTML with meta information for the current post-date/time and author.
     * @since Twenty Fourteen 1.0
     * @example http://wp.me/p1lTu0-bsQ
     */
    
    if ( ! function_exists( 'twentyfourteen_posted_on' ) ) :
    
    function twentyfourteen_posted_on() {
    	if ( is_sticky() && is_home() && ! is_paged() ) {
    		echo '<span class="featured-post">' . __( 'Sticky', 'twentyfourteen' ) . '</span>';
    	}
    
    	printf( '<span class="entry-date"><a href="%1$s" rel="bookmark"><time class="entry-date" datetime="%2$s">%3$s</time></a></span> <span class="byline"><span class="author vcard"><a class="url fn n" href="%4$s" rel="author">%5$s</a></span></span>',
    		esc_url( get_permalink() ),
    		esc_attr( get_the_modified_date( 'c' ) ),
    		esc_html( get_the_modified_date() ),
    		esc_url( get_author_posts_url( get_the_author_meta( 'ID' ) ) ),
    		get_the_author()
    	);
    }
    endif; ?>

    When I place this code in functions.php, it crashes my website. Is there any idea where should I place the code? Or is there any other way of showing last modified date?

  • possibly make sure to remove the php tags around your posted code before inserting it into functions.php …

    are you using a child theme?

    if yes, the code should go into functions.php of the child theme.

    if not, start by creating a child theme for your customization. http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes
