Does anyone know how to find functions/codes/etc in WordPress?

[KempRugeLawGroup]

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!

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">

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' );
?>

$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();
?>

To no avail, but thank you. Excellent idea! I actually just realized I don't even have

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)

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.

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!

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

Thanks so much!

Turned out to be under functions.php under entry-date.

Thanks everyone!
