I have created a custom post type called 'articles' with all the same capabilities as the general post type & I am using the same template to display both archives.
The blog page that uses the built in posts shows posted on and by,
Seen here
The custom post type page omits this info
Seen here
I am lost at this point and don't know what I need to do that's extra, since its using the same code to display both pages.
This is post type function:
function post_type_articles() {
$labels = array(

Reset to default 0If you're using a custom archive template I think you should add the conditional is_post_type_archive()
if ( 'post' === get_post_type() || is_post_type_archive( array( 'articles' ) ) );
In Twenty Twenty One Theme we can find in inc/template-tags.php:
// Early exit if not a post.
if ( 'post' !== get_post_type() ) {
return;
}
We can override the file to change that code block to:
// Early exit if not a post or article.
if ( 'post' !== get_post_type() && 'articles' !== get_post_type() ) {
return;
}
This specific line in your code prevents the execution of the factorypress_posted_on method that displays the post metadata.
if ( 'post' === get_post_type() ) : ?>
That only validates if the post type is post not your custom post type articles. I think you should replace that particular line of code with this one:
if ( 'post' === get_post_type() || 'articles' === get_post_type()) : ?>
