yoast is showing article:modified_time but not article:published_time

@jules-colle Can you please let us know whether the page where you are experiencing this issue is a post, or a page?

The?article:published_time?tag is only output on posts, not on pages. So if where you are experiencing this is on page, this is expected behavior.

If you want the?article:published_time?tag to be generated for other post types, you’ll need to implement the?wpseo_opengraph_show_publish_date?filter.

For example, the code snippet below added to the functions.php of your theme will make Yoast SEO output the?article:published_time?tag in all your post types.

add_filter('wpseo_opengraph_show_publish_date', '__return_true');

That’s probably it! It happens on custom post types. Will try it out.

Maybe there is also something I can do while registering the post type, that tells yoast it is post-like?

@jules-colle

Adding the aforementioned snippet would tell Yoast SEO to output the article:published_time tag for your custom post type posts like default post.
