Hello,
I want to remove the time in the title of my articles. I only want to show the date.
I also want to modify the text near the date.
Thanks.

Hi,
You replace this code from languageen-GBen-GB.ini in the line #224

DATE_FORMAT_LC2="l, d F Y H:i"
with

DATE_FORMAT_LC2="l, d F Y"
– Clean cache

That is the solution! Thank you.
However, there has to be a cleaner way to do this I believe. Can’t I change the LC2 in LC1 somewhere?

The best solution is to edit the override for the articles instead of the language file IF possible.

And that would be in current template folder/html/com_content/article/default.php file. If the template does not have that file or folder it can be copied from componentscom_contentviews folder.

Make sure you create the path as current template folderhtml/com_content/article/default.php file and not current template folder/html/com_content/article/tmpl/default.php

As you can see in componentscom_contentviewsarticle folder you have a tmpl folder where the file default.php is within. and that tmpl folder is not needed when you add in a template override.
