How can I change the Author, Date and Comment line?

[tkirsten 0]

Hi there, I just bought the PagelinesPro Theme and I'm almost done finishing my first website. But I just can't change the line like: "On 31. Januar 2011 ?· Leave a Comment [Edit]" It is a German Website, so I would love to have that line in german. What can I do here? Thanks in advance Timo

I'm assuming you've already translated your site at the wp-config.php level? Please go to the German equivalent of: Settings > General And then make sure you set the right timezone and then format the time and date: http://codex.wordpress.org/Formatting_Date_and_Time See how far that gets you then we might have to dig into the code. Thanks, Bryan

Hello there! The Timezone and Date is right. I found the following code in the wp-config.php

define ('WPLANG', 'de_DE');

I assume, that is what you meant :-(

Are you talking about the metabar beneath the post title?

Hi! I think this is it ... here is a Screenshot of the line, I want to change: I would like to have that line in German ... Thanks Timo

Hi Timo - You could edit the template.postloop.php file. What you'll want to do is copy this into your Base folder and make the changes from there. I believe you're looking to edit the code inside of the if statement that begins with this line: `<?php if(pagelines('byline_comments')):?>` You'll see the comment call from there.

I'm sorry, but I can't find this line in my template.postloop.php file. The file is located in wp-content/themes/platformpro The line, I am talking about is the line right beneath the title. Thanks in advance, I wonde why it seems so difficult to change it. Timo

I have the exact same problem and I can`t find that line in my template.postloop.php file either. Any suggestions? Hans

Ctrl+F or Cmnd+F leave a comment The reason it's "difficult" is because this is an uncommon custom request in which required diving into the code. There can't be a setting for everything, this is the unavoidable nature of web design. Naturally, there is a learning curve to everything, but we will get there. Thanks, Bryan

Hi! Of course I searched the code by ctrl+F ... in fact: There is no line like that ... not even "leave a comment". There must be a way to get rid of that english line in my german website or not? Thanks, Timo

Alright! I used Firebug to figure out what code I need to change. Unfortunately, I don't know where to find that code, but here it is. I hope someone can help me with that:

<div class="metabar"><span class="sword">On</span> <span class="date time published" title="2011-01-31T23:30:31+0000">31. Januar 2011</span>  · <span class="post-comments">Leave a Comment</span>  </div>
	[/code]

Thanks in advance Timo

That code is located in library.templates.php.

perfect! Even though I found the "Leave a comment" line in library.shortcodes.php. Thank you for the final hint! Regards Timo
