Question

Hi am using get_posts to grab all posts tagged as ‘news’ and display them on a given page. I am using the_date() to get the date but what is weird is that the first post shows no date, whereas all posts after this display the date fine. Also I have used this identical code to show posts tagged as ‘blogs’ on another page, yet they work fine.

Here is the page:
http://appshare.nsdesign7.net/news/

Also here is the other page the same code is used on but works fine:
http://appshare.nsdesign7.net/blog/

<? $pageTitle = wp_title('',false,'');
if ($pageTitle == "  News") { ?>


 <?php $appsharenewspage = array( 'numberposts' => 10, 'order'=> 'ASC', 'orderby'=>     'title', 'category' => 3 ); 
 $postslist = get_posts( $appsharenewspage ); foreach ($postslist as $post) :     setup_postdata($post); ?> 
     <article class="newsstyle">
        <span class="imagestyle"><?php the_post_thumbnail(array(120,120)); ?>    </span>
        <h3><?php the_title(); ?></h3>
        <span class="date"><?php the_date(); ?></span>
       <?php the_excerpt(); ?>
           <div class="clear"></div>
    </article>
<?php endforeach; ?>

  <?php } ?>

Answer 1

Try using:

echo get_the_date();
