Date archive permalink modification

You can change the date links by directly modifying the date_structure:

function wpd_change_date_structure(){
    global $wp_rewrite;
    $wp_rewrite->date_structure="news/%year%/%monthnum%/%day%";
}
add_action( 'init', 'wpd_change_date_structure' );

Don’t forget to flush rewrite rules after the change.

WordPress will use this to generate the rewrite rules for incoming requests as well as URL output when using API functions like get_year_link, so there’s no need for a filter.
