Blog grid layout not showing meta/ date unless there's content

Hi Enfold-Team,

I have recognized the following problem in Enfold:

I have several posts in the category news with a pdf-link in the title and no actual content.
Because of the lack of content the date of each post is not showing in the grid layout.
As soon as I add some text the date pops up.

I found two threads already adressing this problem:
Blog grid not showing meta unless there’s also content
and a recent one with no current solution:
Display date on blog grid layout

First thread from 2015 even mentions to modify
enfold\config-templatebuilder\avia-shortcodes\postslider.php line 375:
if($show_meta && !empty($excerpt))

This is not working anymore though – breaks the whole website (original code at line 375 : “public function html()” )

Could you provide me with the right code and where to insert it or any other way to solve this problem?

Thanks in advance for your help,

greetings

Niemitz
