Post_Info Filter not working in CPT

[Drew Fulton]

I have a Custom Post Type (called 'species') and am trying to use a filter to modify the Post_Info on the single post template (single-species.php). No matter what I do, it won't work. I can remove the Post_Info and then add it back in with my own function but that is tedious and totally unnecessary for my purposes. Any ideas why this won't work?

add_filter( 'genesis_post_info', 'dailyspecies_post_info_filter' );
function dailyspecies_post_info_filter($post_info) {
if ( !is_page() ) {
	$post_info = '[post_date]';
	return $post_info;
}}

I am trying to filter both the Post Meta and the Post Info and neither will work? It seems to have been working on my testing server but won't on my live server now. Any ideas?

Thanks,
Drew

First if you're using the single template, you don't need the conditional... there's no way that would ever be a page.

Otherwise, yeah, that should work. Is there anything different between your test server and the live site? Different version of Genesis, or HTM5 vs xhtml?

Add this code in your single-species.php file

add_filter( 'genesis_post_info', 'dailyspecies_post_info_filter' );
function dailyspecies_post_info_filter($post_info) {
	$post_info = '[post_date]';
	return $post_info;
}

Here's another way to do it.

Use this in a site specific plugin which is best in your case.

Problem solved! I had forgotten I still had the Genesis Simple Edits plugin on from my very quick test site a while back! Turned it off and away we go. Thanks for the help!
