Show updated date on the single post page

Hi,

I notice that there is a hidden updated date data on a single post page.
Can I make it visible?

Which file should I make the modification in?

Please see attached image.

Hello,

You can edit the date of the post in the admin panel, you can set any date and it will be visible. Your screen is not clear I cannot figure out what date you mean.

Best Regards

I uploaded a more clear screenshot, please take a look.

The screenshot was taken on this woodmart single post demo page:
https://woodmart.xtemos.com/blog/2016/07/23/minimalist-design-furniture-2016/demo/decor/

As you can see, below the post title, there is a word “post”. I use chrome’s developer tool to check this element and found that it has codes like this:
<li class=”modified-date”><time class=”updated” datetime=”2019-01-02T16:46:18+00:00″>January 2, 2019</time>

My question is:
I am trying to modify the theme to show updated date instead of publish date for posts.

It seem Woodmart has already pull the update(modified) date data from the database by default, but just not showing on the frontend.

I was wondering how can I show the post modified date on the frontend?

I tried to add some codes in content.php to show post modified date. It did work, but the problem is there will be two identical “post modified date” within a single post, and since by default the theme has already pull the modified date data, I would like to know how to make that data visible?

Try to add the following code snippet to the Custom CSS area in Theme Settings

ul.entry-meta-list li.modified-date {
	font-size: 14px; 
	margin-right: 10px;
}

Very cool!

I tried it and it worked!

May I know which file content the codes in?
I want to add some words like “Last modified:” before the date.

Hi, nevermind. I found it. It’s in the template-tags.php file. Thanks.

You can find the code for this in the file inc/template-tags.php.

Thanks for the reply.

You are welcome! If you have any questions please feel free to contact us.

Best Regards
