 * This is probably a simple thing for the more experienced, but I really do not
   have a clue.
 * I want to remove the word “den” in the date posted-part of my posts. It was simple
   enough to remove name of author, but I am now stuck with a date that reads “den
   17 november 2018” (translated “the 17:th of November 2018” – and it’s the word“
   the” that is annoying and irrelevant in Swedish)
 * The code looks like this (from code inspector in Chrome).
 * <span class=” posted-on”>
    den <time class=”entry-date published” datetime=”2018-
   11-17T12:32:45+00:00″>17 november 2018</time> <time class=”updated” datetime=”
   2018-11-17T15:29:48+00:00″>17 november 2018</time> </span>
 * And I actually do not know where in WP admin I find this code … Could someone
   please help me?
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fremove-34%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Most probably this word comes from the Swedish translation of your theme. Which
   theme are you using?
    You can employ the plugin Say What to overrule the translation
   from the repo.
 * Alternatively you can mess with the translation file directly, but anytime the
   translation is updated, your edit will have to be redone. (And Note that we’re
   talking about the compiled mo-files here.)

 * One more thing: Perhaps you’ve found one place where it’s better to _not_ mark
   the date with “den”? Bear in mind that often the person who translated a theme
   doesn’t _use_ it himself and therefore doesn’t see exactly how the translation
   is used.

   you’ll find ways to communicate with the Swedish translation team directly (and
   perhaps even contributing yourself to the Swedish version of WordPress).

 * Tack för tipsen 🙂
    I use the theme Aaron. I tried Say what but couldn’t make
   it work at first try so I’ll try again later. I will also look into your other
   suggestions. Thanks!

 * I’ve updated that translation. And I took away that “date marker” (“den”). Just
   update your translations in the admin-updates panel.
