This code prints the date as formatted in the first line, but it seems that it does not recognize the second.

How would I make an a href with the date at the end of the link then?

<?php

$url = "http://www.hiphoplot.com/";
$date = the_date('Y/m/d/');
echo $url . $date;
<a href="echo $url . $date";>
?>

	<div align="center"><font color=\"#FF00FF\"><?php the_date('l - F jS', '<h2>', '</h2>'); ?></font></div>
</a>

Well, I’ve read the codex chapter of the_date(), but that second link seems interesting.

I am still unsure though as to how I could use string date ( string $format [, int $timestamp = time() ] ) in my a href url.

I essentially want to know how to put a date at the end of <a href="www.mysite.com/putthedatehere">

Thanks for the response.

When you say home_url do you suggest that I put in www.thenameofmypage.com/<?php the_date('Y/m/d/'); ?> as my home_url. I guess I just don’t understand at what point in your code the current date shows up. Does this ( '/' ) bring up the date?

Sorry about that,

<a href="www.thenameofmypage.com/<?php the_date('Y/m/d/'); ?>"><My Title></a>

Thanks for the quick response!

I apologize, I didn’t explain myself clearly enough. In the a href I would like to have part of the link be a php function. So, for example, I would like www.myquestion.com/<?php the_date?> so that it will bring up something likewww.myquestion.com/2012/04/03.
