  Hi there,

  On which part of your site you want to change the date?

  On the front page, bottom left, within the demo theme that I use…

  Hi milkasemova,

  Thanks, this date is coded into the theme so it won’t be possible to change the format and include a copyright symbol. However, you could add a copyright notice containing © 2018 to a text widget instead — the Dara theme supports widgets in both the sidebar and footer areas.

  Actually, this date has an Edit button and is not embedded into the picture – it is just not active in my console.
  It is not logical to have a date of creation on a web site, as on a blog or blog post…
  Please have a closer look. It should simply read © 2018
  Thank you very much!

  Hi –

  I’ve had a look and the edit link that you mention is for the post connected there. The posts display a full date per the theme set up.

  That can be seen here on the Dara Theme demo:

  Does it mean that if I put a theme of my own or another one (not Darea) there will not be date?

  Yes, not every theme uses this. It’s part of the Dara theme.

  If you go to https://wordpress.com/themes/ you can browse through them and look at the demo sites to have a closer look before you commit to any changes.

  I’m happy to answer any other questions that you run in to as you look.

  Hello, on the same topic again – I found this in the script:
  <time class=”entry-date published” datetime=”2018-07-10T12:42:16+00:00″>July 10, 2018</time>
  I just can not change it.
  It turns out imposible to chose another topic, as the previews don’t really show such details…

  Hi, the HTML for a theme cannot be edited, so that line cannot be changed.

  I’m afraid not, this level of customisation isn’t supported on our paid plans. The only way you could possibly do this would be to install a custom plugins — which can only be installed on sites using the Business plan.
