The WordPress Twenty Seventeen theme does not show recent posts on the Posts menu click. So…
I made a custom Posts menu link with a custom .php file. See code below:
<?php
/**
* Loads the WordPress environment and template.
*
* @package WordPress
*/
if ( ! isset( $wp_did_header ) ) {
$wp_did_header = true;
// Load the WordPress library.
require_once __DIR__ . '/wp-load.php';
}
// Get the most recent post date
$date = new DateTime( get_lastpostdate( 'server', 'post') );
// Redirect to the page using format of the most recent post date
header( "Location: " . get_site_url() . "/" . $date->format( "Y" ) . "/" . $date->format( "m" ) . "/" );
die;
?>
