Hi There,

Thanks for writing in! To change the post author name, either you will have to create a new WordPress user or change the name of the existing user info through WordPress backend Users section.

Date format you can change by head over to Settings -> General -> Date Format section.

To add a read more link, you can follow this post (https://theme.co/apex/forum/t/change-read-more-in-news-overview-using-theme-x-renew-stack/14515/2?u=mldarshana).

Hope that helps.

Hi there,

Please add this code in the functions.php file of the child theme:

if ( ! function_exists( 'x_ethos_entry_meta' ) ) :
  function x_ethos_entry_meta() {

    //
    // Author.
    //

    $author = sprintf( ' %1$s %2$s</span>',
      __( 'By', '__x__' ),
      get_the_author()
    );


    //
    // Date.
    //

    $date = sprintf( '<span><time class="entry-date" datetime="%1$s">%2$s</time></span>',
      esc_attr( get_the_date( 'c' ) ),
      esc_html( get_the_date() )
    );

    //
    // Output.
    //

    if ( x_does_not_need_entry_meta() ) {
      return;
    } else {
      printf( '<p class="p-meta">%1$s . %2$s</p>',
        $author,
        $date
      );
    }

  }
endif;

Hope this helps.
