    Hello,

    is it possible to Change the date Format providing in the blog. Currently it is set to Month Day, Year. But in Germany I want to use Day. Month. Year.

    Thanks a lot.

  • Hi there,

    You can change the date format for your blog by following the instructions:

    1. Log into your WordPress admin.
    2. Navigate to Settings > General.
    3. Scroll down to “Timezone” and set your preferred format there.

    You may need to use a custom format to get the exact format you’re looking for—I think this might be what you’re after:

    d.m.Y

    Cheers!

    Hi,

    thanks for your answer. This doesn’t work for this template, but I found the solution.

    You have to open the file ‘inc/template-tags.php’. There is a line which prints the date:

    <span class=”posted-on”><?php the_time(‘F d, Y’) ?></span>

    Here you have to change the date format.

    Greetings.
