How To Remove the Date From Your WordPress Blog Sitewide…Plus

Why Remove Blog Dates?

Dated content can seem old and no longer relevant, even if that is NOT the case.

If you don’t blog regularly and your last post is years old, remove the date to make your content ‘evergreen.’

Blog Post Dates Can Show Up in Three Different Places

1. Excerpts on your Home page
2. Excerpts on your Blog page
3. On each Blog Post
