trying to use shtml, not working

I have included "Includes" and "AddType text/html .shtml AddOutputFilter INCLUDES .shtml" to my httpd.conf file tag, and wrote <!--#echo var="DATE_LOCAL" --> in my shtml file, but when I run it the date doesn't show up. Any ideas why? Thank you.

This is in my conf file Directory tag in Apache Web Server folder:

Options Indexes FollowSymLinks ExecCGI Includes
AllowOverride All
Require all granted
AddType text/html .shtml
AddOutputFilter INCLUDES .shtml

For anyone who might be having the same issue, my issue did not have anything to do with the set up process, what I did above was necessary and fine. I was just viewing the page via "file://", very silly mistake. When viewing via http://localhost it worked (of course).
