Remove publish date from WooCommerce Products

gmork86

Hi there,

how can i remove the "publish date" from woocommerce products? The date only occurs in the google serps. I think the responsible line, containing the publish date in the source code is:

class="date"><i class="icon-clock"></i>25. April 2017</span>

Is this the responsible code? How can i remove it from all product-pages?

Thanks!

Hi,
Please always attach a link so we can check it out. If the page is offline(localhost) then our help will be limited, you will have to contact us when the page is online. Also please make sure that the page is not under maintenance before you provide us the link.
It is always a good idea to also attach a screenshot, for that use services like snag.gy or pasteboard.co
thanks

Css will not help since it will only hide the date and it will be still visible in the code. You would have to modify wordpress posts files to disable date from posts, which will be extremly hard or even impossible.

hmm ok.

Well i found this plugin which exactly does what i want:

https://wordpress.org/plugins/date-exclusion-seo-plugin/ 

but its kinda old and got no update for years!

I found this "solution" in a forum, could this be the solution?

function remove_post_dates() {
add_filter(‘the_time’, ‘__return_false’);
add_filter(‘get_the_time’, ‘__return_false’);
add_filter(‘the_modified_time’, ‘__return_false’);
add_filter(‘get_the_modified_time’, ‘__return_false’);
add_filter(‘the_date’, ‘__return_false’);
add_filter(‘get_the_date’, ‘__return_false’);
add_filter(‘the_modified_date’, ‘__return_false’);
add_filter(‘get_the_modified_date’, ‘__return_false’);
add_filter(‘get_comment_date’, ‘__return_false’);
add_filter(‘get_comment_time’, ‘__return_false’);
}

thanks in advance!

Please test it and see it for yourself, we do not support custom code.
thanks
