Miraz,

I’ve been searching for a solution as to why my date and time is not showing up in Chris’ Neoclassical theme; I see you’ve got the date on the bottom but no time. I’ve put the tags in the index.php file (main index template, but they don’t show up. Got any ideas why the code would be ignored?

Thanks in advance for any help!

<span class=”date”>Posted at <?php the_time(‘H:i’) ?> on <?php the_time(‘l d F Y’) ?></span>
