date() is a PHP function depending on your server settings. You can go around that by using the WordPress function: current_time( ‘Y-m-d H:i:s’ ); This function takes the settings in wp-admin into account.
You may notice that I did more or less exactly this for Matt’s site: http://ma.tt. Every set of posts is grouped by the day. The basic principle is to keep track of your day in the loop, then print the date and related stuff only when it changes. Take a basic Loop: if ( have_posts() … Read more
It is unclear if you are looking for the last updated post or for the last updated date for some particular post. The answer by @PatJ assumes the former. To do the latter: $qry = new WP_Query(array(‘p’=>1)); var_dump($qry->posts[0]->post_modified); Or… $date = $wpdb->get_var(“SELECT post_modified FROM {$wpdb->posts} WHERE ID = 1”); var_dump($date); Of course you need to … Read more
Here’s the solution: Install Custom Post Type Archives plugin Go to Settings->Post Type Archives Remove the url base option (leave it blank) Change the template pattern to archive-{POST_TYPE}.php Tick your custom post type and click save Rewrite/save your custom permalink structure Now your links press-release/%year% and press-release/%year%/%month% should work.
This should get you started: <?php $the_query = new WP_Query( array( ‘post_type’ => ‘kalender_item’, ‘post_status’ => ‘publish’, ‘meta_key’ => ‘kalender_item_datum’, ‘orderby’ => ‘meta_value’ ) ); # This will hold what group we’re in $current_header=””; # The Loop while ( $the_query->have_posts() ) : $the_query->the_post(); # get the datum for this post $temp_date = get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), ‘kalender_item_datum’, … Read more
Here’s a sketch of another idea, where we create scheduling shortcuts to make it easier for the users: We can use the post_submitbox_misc_actions to add extra fields to the submit box: /** * Scheduling-Shortcuts fields. * * @see http://wordpress.stackexchange.com/a/168748/26350 */ add_action( ‘post_submitbox_misc_actions’, function() { if( ! current_user_can( ‘publish_posts’ ) ) return; ?> <div style=”padding: 2px … Read more
Yes, there isn’t currently built-in support for CPT archives, but that doesn’t mean you can’t extend WP to provide it. I just did this myself the other day… This won’t create the date-based archives you’re looking for, but it will give you virtual archive behavior for custom post types. Adding the date should just be … Read more
I’m not sure why EliasNS’ answer is marked correct, as far as I’m aware (and from the documentation), the second parameter of DateTime::__construct(), if provided, should be a DateTimeZone instance. The problem then becomes, how we do we create a DateTimeZone instance. This is easy if the user has selected a city as their timezone, … Read more
Somehow I missed the current_time function, which gives a good description of the situation and how to properly deal with the need to get the current blog-local time. http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/current_time Though the purist in me still hates how WP makes the time zone setting in php.ini obsolete without giving you a choice. *grumble grumble*
They are, very similar but with some nuances: function get_the_date( $d = ” ) { global $post; $the_date=””; if ( ” == $d ) $the_date .= mysql2date(get_option(‘date_format’), $post->post_date); else $the_date .= mysql2date($d, $post->post_date); return apply_filters(‘get_the_date’, $the_date, $d); } function get_the_time( $d = ”, $post = null ) { $post = get_post($post); if ( ” == … Read more
