In underscores I can get my custom post type just fine with pre get posts along regular blog posts. However the date published and author does not display. How can I modify my template tag (themeslug_posted_on) to show them as well?

My pre get posts filter:

add_filter( 'pre_get_posts', 'get_my_cpt' );
function get_my_cpt( $query ) {
    if ( is_archive() || is_search() || is_home() && $query->is_main_query() )
        $query->set( 'post_type', array( 'post', 'my_cpt' ) );
    return $query;
}

The underscores I'd like to modify:

if ( ! function_exists( '_s_posted_on' ) ) :
/**
* Prints HTML with meta information for the current post-date/time and author.
*/
function _s_posted_on() {
    $time_string = '%2$s';
    if ( get_the_time( 'U' ) !== get_the_modified_time( 'U' ) ) {
        $time_string = '%2$s%4$s';
    }
    $time_string = sprintf( $time_string,
        esc_attr( get_the_date( 'c' ) ),
        esc_html( get_the_date() ),
        esc_attr( get_the_modified_date( 'c' ) ),
        esc_html( get_the_modified_date() )
    );
    $posted_on = sprintf(
        _x( 'Posted on %s', 'post date', '_s' ),
        '' . $time_string . ''
    );
    $byline = sprintf(
        _x( 'by %s', 'post author', '_s' ),
        '' . esc_html( get_the_author() ) . ''
    );
    echo '' . $posted_on . ' ' . $byline . '';
}
endif;

Answer: I was looking in the wrong place. The answer lays in the 'content.php' file of underscores. The expected result displayed is by adding my cpt to the conditional,like so :

if ( 'post' || 'my_cpt' == get_post_type() ) :

  • Please include relevant code in your question otherwise it's hard to identify the problem.

    That's the default function from underscore. Please add the code that you've added to the theme, like the pre_get_posts function or the loop you're using.
