Hi.
Please don’t answer this until you guys have returned from vacation. There is no rush at all on this question.
QUESTION: How can I show the date the link was published using the simple-links widget?
I have tried an ADDITIONAL FIELD but I have to type the date in manually in the text box. I am looking to have a checkbox that lets me show the published date of the link and maybe a pull down menu that lets me select the position of the date (before or after the link) and maybe some styling options so I can assign a custom css class to the date. As well as a field separator just like the additional field type would be useful.
Note: I know the support for this plugin is ending and you guys are looking to hand over maintenance, I am not expecting new features. Just curious what my options are before I start learning php.
Thanks for the great plugin. This is REALLY powerful.
Robert
Hi Robert,
You may add the requested settings to the widget, and adjust the link’s output by adding the following filters to your active theme’s functions.php file:
Have a great day!
Whoa! I was not expecting that. I am going to give this a try right away.
Thank you very kindly!
Robert
