UpdateStamp – Last Updated & Last Modified Date

Përshkrim

Readers, Google and AI search engines trust content that is kept up to date. UpdateStamp shows the last updated date (also called the last modified date) on your posts and pages, the right way. It works with block themes, classic themes and page builders, and is tested with WordPress 7.

• “Last updated on …” line before or after the content, on the post types you choose.
• Your own wording with template tags: {modified_date}, {modified_ago} (“3 days ago”), {modified_author}, {published_date} and more.
• Hide on fresh posts: only show the date when a post was really updated some time after publishing.
• Minor edit checkbox: fix a typo without changing the last updated date.
• dateModified structured data (JSON-LD) and the article:modified_time meta tag. If Yoast SEO, Rank Math, All in One SEO, SEOPress or The SEO Framework is active, UpdateStamp stays out of their way automatically.
• “Last Updated Date” block that also works inside Query Loops, a [updatestamp] shortcode and a updatestamp_the_last_updated() template tag.
• Sortable “Last Updated” column in your post and page lists.
• Exclude pages: never on the front page (optional), plus your own list of URLs, slugs or IDs. Or hide it per post from the editor sidebar.
• Lightweight: no jQuery, no extra files, nothing loaded on pages without the date.

Switching from WP Last Modified Info?

UpdateStamp imports its settings (position, text, date format, post types) and the posts where you hid the date, in one click. Its [lmt-post-modified-info] and [lmt-page-modified-info] shortcodes keep working after you deactivate it, so you don’t have to edit old posts.
