Show meta data in Twenty Twelve?

  • Hi there,

    I’m using the latest WordPress along with the Twenty Twelve theme, which fits perfectly for my purpose/taste. I noticed that the theme doesn’t show meta data such as author, tag(s) and category(s), neither on the start page, nor in the articles. Is there any chance to show these data in Twenty Twelve?

  • the theme shows the post meta data at the bottom of the post – in the index pages and the single post, unless you are using some specific post formats.

    also, if you have only one author in the site, it will not show the post author data.

    The author is the least of my problems. I can live with that. But are you sure about the post formats? I always use “Standard” (no need to change that) but still no tags and no category is shown, neither at the bottom nor at the top of the individual posting (and not on the start page).

    That’s weird ?-|

    have you made any edits to the theme?

    there might be some edits in the function twentytwelve_entry_meta() in functions.php of your theme which hide the other meta data together with the author data …

    to verify, add this to the end of style.css:
    .single-author .entry-meta .by-author { display: block; }

    I haven’t made any edits to the theme. Strange …

    But: Adding

    .single-author .entry-meta .by-author { display: block; }

    helped!

    Now I can see author, categories and tags, although they are weirdly formatted. How do I change that? (Also there’s a translation mistake in the German version of the theme, I’d like to correct).

    Thanks for the help!

    they are weirdly formatted

    that is why I assumed somebody might have edited the post meta data function.
    where did you download the german version of Twenty Twelve from?

    there’s a translation mistake in the German version of the theme, I’d like to correct

    try to contact das deutsche team via https://forum.wpde.org/sprachdatei/

    As I mentioned before, I didn’t do any changes. If there are some weirdly formatted parts, then the might have something to do with the german translation as well (I suppose).

    Any chance to fix it?

    At the moment it looks something like
