Yes, I’ve been using that one but it causes my posts to go down abuot an inch lower on the page. It has a warning to change the code but when I did following the directions it shut down my site. Was looking for a different one.
Thanks

Much better. You’re a genius! Thanks so much! 🙂

I used this code and nothing happened. Am I missing some code? I’d like it to show Month and day not necessarily the year. Thanks.

Date posted: <?php the_date(); ?>

I’ve pasted the codes and the time is now showing up but not the author. Here’s the way it reads in my index.php file (appropriate line only) 🙂

<!– by <?php the_author() ?> ) –></small>

Any clues as to what I am doing wrong? I just added the code you indicated without taking out anything in front of or behind it. Is that my problem?

This is my entire index.php entry. I don’t see what you are referencing. Do I need to add something and if so does it need to be added for each poster in order to post the poster’s name on her posts?

<?php get_header(); ?>

<div id=”content” class=”narrowcolumn”>

<?php if (have_posts()) : ?>

<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>

<div class=”post”>
<h2 id=”post-<?php the_ID(); ?>”>” rel=”bookmark” title=”Permanent Link to <?php the_title(); ?>”><?php the_title(); ?></h2>
<small><?php the_time(‘F jS, Y’) ?> <!– by <?php the_author() ?> –></small>

<div class=”entry”>
<?php the_content(‘Read the rest of this entry »’); ?>
</div>

<p class=”postmetadata”>Posted in <?php the_category(‘, ‘) ?> | <?php edit_post_link(‘Edit’,”,’|‘); ?> <?php comments_popup_link(‘No Comments »’, ‘1 Comment »’, ‘% Comments »’); ?>

<!–
<?php trackback_rdf(); ?>
–>
</div>

<?php endwhile; ?>

<div class=”navigation”>
<div class=”alignleft”><?php posts_nav_link(”,”,’« Previous Entries’) ?></div>
<div class=”alignright”><?php posts_nav_link(”,’Next Entries »’,”) ?></div>
</div>

<?php else : ?>

<h2 class=”center”>Not Found</h2>
<p class=”center”><?php _e(“Sorry, but you are looking for something that isn’t here.”); ?>
<?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . “/searchform.php”); ?>

<?php endif; ?>

</div>

<?php get_sidebar(); ?>

<?php get_footer(); ?>

OK, so I’m thick. I don’t know what it’s talking about the Loop. I am using WP 1.5, I can see on the post admin site the post number, author and time. How do I transfer the author and time to the actual post so the readers know who is posting the post? If I need a plugin please tell me. If I need code please tell me what code and where to put it so it does what I want it to do.
Thanks
