Add date under slider/grid featured content

It is possible and quite easy to achieve. Here is how

STEP 1

Copy content-featured-post.php to your child theme and open it up

STEP 2

Just after line 32, paste the following code

<?php echo get_the_date( 'Y-m-d' ); ?>

Save this change, and your done

As you can see, get_the_date is used to return the post date

The get_the_date template tag retrieves the date the current $post was written. Unlike the_date() this tag will always return the date.

To customize the date that is displayed, you can go and check out Formatting Date and Time
