Hi Katherine,

To change the date format on posts to remove the day, visit:

Manage > Settings > Writing

Under “Date and Time Format” – click the arrow on the right to open the panel.

Choose “Custom” and in the text field, enter:

F, Y

That should look like this:

F stands for full month
Y stands for full year

Also just a heads-up that since your site has a Premium/Business plan, you’re entitled to live-chat and email support, accessible here:

https://wordpress.com/help/contact

You’re welcome to still post in these forums, but those other support avenues may be faster, and you’ll always get a staff reply.

Thats amazing Kathryn, thank you.

My pleasure, glad that did the trick!

One last question on this topic. If I post a blog today and want it to show a different date, how can I do that?

You can back-date a post in the editor by choosing a date in the past, to modify the date displayed on the site.

Click the date to choose a date in the past:

Let me know if this achieves what you’re after!

Works a treat – thank you.

My pleasure!

Ive also noticed for anyone else reading this post, you can remove the date altogether via Content Options/Post Details

Yes, that’s another simple option if you prefer to remove the dates entirely!

I’ll mark this thread as resolved for now, but feel free to start another – or to contact us through live chat – if we can help with anything else.
