solved. someone had edited the locale.php file
hey apljdi, it is not like that unfortunately, that would make it easier. it shows sepr in the backend of wordpress too. and it will not let me change the date format.
the code uses the ‘the_date’ function in wordpress. the person we outsourced the wordpress coding to has somewhere put a trim or explode then remove function somewhere in the code to remove some of the date.
the code itself for the page is:
<small>
<?php the_time(‘<b>F</b>’) ?>
<?php the_time(‘jS’) ?>
</small>
‘F’ in php_date is the full textual representation (September).
As i said earlier it shows in the backend to, and changing the ‘F’ to ‘M’ just removes the date from the site and the backend too.
I have tried using those. Every time I try to reformat the date, it is removed from the site.
The theme has been coded especially for our site and is only used for the blog, not the whole site.
