    There is a free plugin called 'Date Exclusion SEO'

    Yes, there are plugins. You can also edit the theme in the theme editor and remove the code where it shows the date. You can also convert your posts to pages, as pages don't show a date.

      Wrong. That's a blanket statement and it's not true.

      Whether there is date on Pages or not... it's a theme-specific issue: it depends on the template used and on the code in the template.

        In Wordpress ( again it depends on each theme ) look for index.php, archive.php, single.php for instance and open them up in a text editor. find the following code

        <?php the_date(); ?>

        Remove, remember to look for the begiing and end of the statement, php statements start with <? and end with ?>

        Depending on the theme you might have to rmeove this from page.php, search.php also

    Yeah I'm thinking of removing the date as well, so all my posts and pages will be evergreen.
