WP-RelativeDate

August 09, 2023

WP-RelativeDate Plugin

Displays relative date alongside with your post/comments actual date.

Like ‘Today’, ‘Yesterday’, ‘2 Days Ago’, ‘2 Weeks Ago’, ‘2 ‘Seconds Ago’, ‘2 Minutes Ago’, ‘2 Hours Ago’.

General Usage

You need not do anything. WP-RelativeDate will automatically modify your post/comment date or time display. No text will be added if the post or comment is more than a month old.

It will add the following text accordingly:
* Post/Comment Date
* Today
* Yesterday
* X days ago
* X weeks ago
* Post/Comment Time
* X seconds ago
* X minutes ago
* X hours ago
