How do I use either child css or child function.php to add the date to the postfooter?

You have to filter the thematic_postfooter (in functions.php) in this way:

// NEW POST FOOTER
function YOURCHILDTHEME_postfooter() {
    global $id, $post;

    // Create $posteditlink
    $posteditlink .= '<a href="' . get_bloginfo('wpurl') . '/wp-admin/post.php?action=edit&amp;post=' . $id;
    $posteditlink .= '" title="' . __('Edit post', 'thematic') .'">';
    $posteditlink .= __('Edit', 'thematic') . '</a>';
    $posteditlink = apply_filters('thematic_postfooter_posteditlink',$posteditlink); 

    // Display the post categories
    $postcategory .= '<span class="cat-links">';
    if (is_single()) {
        $postcategory .= __('This entry was posted in ', 'thematic') . get_the_category_list(', ');
        $postcategory .= '</span>';
    } elseif ( is_category() && $cats_meow = thematic_cats_meow(', ') ) { /* Returns categories other than the one queried */
        $postcategory .= __('Also posted in ', 'thematic') . $cats_meow;
        $postcategory .= '</span> ';
    } else {
        $postcategory .= __('Posted in ', 'thematic') . get_the_category_list(', ');
        $postcategory .= '</span> ';
    }
    $postcategory = apply_filters('thematic_postfooter_postcategory',$postcategory); 

    // Display the tags
    if (is_single()) {
        $tagtext = __(' and tagged', 'thematic');
        $posttags = get_the_tag_list("<span class=\"tag-links\"> $tagtext ",', ','</span>');
    } elseif ( is_tag() && $tag_ur_it = thematic_tag_ur_it(', ') ) { /* Returns tags other than the one queried */
        $posttags = '<span class="tag-links">' . __(' Also tagged ', 'thematic') . $tag_ur_it . '</span> <span class="meta-sep">|</span>';
    } else {
        $tagtext = __('Tagged', 'thematic');
        $posttags = get_the_tag_list("<span class=\"meta-sep\">|</span> <span class=\"tag-links\"> $tagtext ",', ','</span>');
    }
    $posttags = apply_filters('thematic_postfooter_posttags',$posttags); 

    // Display comments link and edit link
    if (comments_open()) {
        $postcommentnumber = get_comments_number();
        if ($postcommentnumber > '1') {
            $postcomments = ' <span class="meta-sep">|</span> <span class="comments-link"><a href="' . get_permalink() . '#comments" title="' . __('Comment on ', 'thematic') . the_title_attribute('echo=0') . '">';
            $postcomments .= get_comments_number() . __(' Comments', 'thematic') . '</a></span>';
        } elseif ($postcommentnumber == '1') {
            $postcomments = ' <span class="meta-sep">|</span> <span class="comments-link"><a href="' . get_permalink() . '#comments" title="' . __('Comment on ', 'thematic') . the_title_attribute('echo=0') . '">';
            $postcomments .= get_comments_number() . __(' Comment', 'thematic') . '</a></span>';
        } elseif ($postcommentnumber == '0') {
            $postcomments = '<span class="no-comment"><a href="' . get_permalink() . '#comments" title="' . __('Comment on ', 'thematic') . the_title_attribute('echo=0') . '">';
            $postcomments .= __('Leave a comment', 'thematic') . '</a></span>';
        }
    } else {
        $postcomments = ' <span class="comments-link">' . __('Comments closed', 'thematic') .'</span>';
    }
    // Display edit link
    if (current_user_can('edit_posts')) {
        $postcomments .= ' <span class="meta-sep">|</span> ' . $posteditlink;
    }
    $postcomments = apply_filters('thematic_postfooter_postcomments',$postcomments); 

    // Display permalink, comments link, and RSS on single posts
    $postconnect .= __('. Bookmark the ', 'thematic') . '<a href="' . get_permalink() . '" title="' . __('Permalink to ', 'thematic') . the_title_attribute('echo=0') . '">';
    $postconnect .= __('permalink', 'thematic') . '</a>.';
    if (('open' == $post-> comment_status) && ('open' == $post->ping_status)) { /* Comments are open */
        $postconnect .= ' <a class="comment-link" href="#respond" title ="' . __('Post a comment', 'thematic') . '">' . __('Post a comment', 'thematic') . '</a>';

    } elseif (!('open' == $post-> comment_status) && !('open' == $post->ping_status)) { /* Comments and trackbacks closed */
        $postconnect .= __(' Both comments and trackbacks are currently closed.', 'thematic');
    }
    // Display edit link on single posts
    if (current_user_can('edit_posts')) {
        $postconnect .= ' ' . $posteditlink;
    }
    $postconnect = apply_filters('thematic_postfooter_postconnect',$postconnect); 

    // Add it all up
    if ($post->post_type == 'page' && current_user_can('edit_posts')) { /* For logged-in "page" search results */
        $postfooter = '<div class="entry-utility">' . $posteditlink;
        $postfooter .= "</div><!-- .entry-utility -->\n";
    } elseif ($post->post_type == 'page') { /* For logged-out "page" search results */
        $postfooter = '';
    } else {
        if (is_single()) {
            $postfooter = '<div class="entry-utility">' . $postcategory . $posttags . $postconnect;
        } else {
            $postfooter = '<div class="entry-utility">' . $postcategory . $posttags . $postcomments;
        }

    }

    // Put it on the screen
    echo apply_filters( 'YOURCHILDTHEME_postfooter', $postfooter ); // Filter to override default post footer
}
add_filter ('thematic_postfooter', 'YOURCHILDTHEME_postfooter'); // Crazy important!
// end NEW POST FOOTER

and edit the code to fit your needs...

Thanks! I'm so glad that I ask for help because I would never have gotten to this! I appreciate your generosity of time and skills.

As important as postheader and postfooter are, it's an enormous pain to modify it. Wading through code like this doesn't make it much easier.

Seems like having the options available through the admin interface would make life soooo much easier. Hope someone, someday, finds this a worthy challenge.

Hi,

.. but don't forget .. in most cases you should use the rapier instead of the two-handed sword ;)

.. or instead of the lupara like my Italian friend :)

So .. if you just want to add a singe information it should be enough to use one of the 'small' filters.
