Does anyone know how to find functions/codes/etc in WordPress?
-
Right now, I'm working on solving a relatively easy WP issue (easy, because someone told me what to do. Thanks iNetSeo). I have to replace:
<span class="post_date"></span class="post_date"> and replace it with <span class="post_date date="" updated"=""></span class="post_date> But, I can't find the "_<span class="post_date">"</span class="post_date">_For a number of my WP problems, the hardest part is just located the code/function/markup I need to replace. Does anyone know where this might usually be stored on a website? Also, does anyone know if there's any tool that would allowed to just put "various function" in a search box, and wordpress take you to where it was on the backend of your site, so you could edit it?
I included a screenshot of our editors, but I already opened them all, pasted the code in Ctrl-F to no avail, but maybe I missed something.
Thanks for helping with my frustrating scavenger hunt!

Turned out to be under functions.php under entry-date.
Thanks everyone!

Turns out it was under entry-date, just not a file I had looked at.
Thanks so much!

Hi Dave,
Not in index, nor single, but thanks especially for pointing out single. I wouldn't have thought to look there. We don't have an archive for some reason.
Thanks for the suggestions!

I'm actually trying to fix a bunch of the structured data errors I have from GWT. I have a ton of them, and they all have to do with this one piece of code. Apparently, it's a common WP problem. I will try to find those files now. Thanks!

P.S. I also checked my functions.php via someone else's suggestions, but I didn't see it there either.

I'm guessing you are doing this to add data to a snippet?
I would check these three places. Most WP themes have them here:
index.php (main Blog Page)
single.php (single Post Page)
archive.php (archive Page) -
To no avail, but thank you. Excellent idea! I actually just realized I don't even have

I assume this has to be in the Single Post Php file somewhere, so I'm just going to post that to see if there's some synonym for entry date or post date that, I"m not seeing:
get_header();
setup_postdata($post);
get_sidebar();
?>get_template_part( 'loop', 'single' );
?>Kemp & Ruge Law Group
$off=1;
query_posts('cat=5&orderby=DATE&order=ASC');
while(have_posts()):the_post();
?>$off++;
endwhile;
wp_reset_query();
?>query_posts('p=109');
while(have_posts()) :the_post();
the_content();
endwhile;
wp_reset_query();
?> -
Try searching for <span class="entry-date">in your single-post.php file and see if that turns up what you are looking for.</span class="entry-date">

19 Hours Excessive to Code Single Wordpress Page?
My developer says that is will take 19 hours to modify a listing page of the wpcasa London real estate theme because the existing template is difficult to customize. I am attaching an image of the existing page before customization and an image of a final mock up. Is 19 hours a reasonable amount of time to customize this page? Look forward to feedback.

Wordpress themes causing google penalty(need experts to settle a debate)
Hi, I have been having a disagreement with another online marketing company. We are both promoting the same product under a different brand name but we ended up using the same theme to build our WordPress sites off of but in no way is the content the same. They are telling me that using the same theme in the same industry will cause a Google penalty. I do not believe this and do not see this causing a problem. The sites are relatively new so there is no proof of traffic dropping or penalties as of yet. What is everyone's professional opinion on this? Can a WordPress theme cause duplicate content penalty? If so would that not mean that anyone using themes will have some sort of penalty?

How to put 'Link to this article' HTML code at bottom of article & is it helpful?
Hello, I was thinking about putting a box down at the bottom of my client's main articles that let's the reader easily copy the html code it takes to link to the article they're reading. Maybe I'd put it after the author bio. Do any of you do this? If so, what format do you use? It has to look nice of course. This is a non-techie industry. Thanks.

Should /dev folder be blocked?
I have been experiencing a ranking drop every two months, so I came upon a new theory this morning... Does Google do a deep crawl of your site say every 60-90 days and would they penalize a site if they crawled into your /dev area which would contain pretty the exact same urls and content as your production environment and therefore penalize you for duplicate content? The only issue I see with this theory is that I have been penalized only for specific keywords on specific pages, not necessarily across the board. Thoughts? What would be the best way to block out your /dev area?
