    Hi all,

    I am working on modifying the Metro child theme for Genesis, and am wondering if there's a way to conditionally display the time and date a post was published. I have added post formats support, and for the shorter formats like statuses and links and asides, I want to display the date and time a post was published, while for standard posts I don't want to display a date or time at all. Is there a way to do this?

    Thanks.

    Yes, you can - you'll likely want to use http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/has_post_format to check if a post is of a particular format or not.
