Hey J!
Assuming you’re using the widget:
- Go to your Dashboard, then head to Widgets > WordPress Popular Posts.
- Under Date Format (right below the “Display date” checkbox), select the first date format (the one with the link “WordPress Date Format”) and hit the Save button below to apply changes.
- Remember the link from step 2? Click on it and you’ll land on the General Settings page. Scroll down to Date Format, select Custom and type in your desired type format.
- Finally, hit the Save Changes button to apply changes.
If you’re using either the wpp_get_mostpopular() template tag or the [wpp] shortcode, you can use the stats_date_format
parameter to set your custom date format (see Dashboard > Settings > WordPress Popular Posts > Parameters for more.)
