I have two posts where the shortcode isn’t being rendered into HTML. After a lot of HTML/CSS debugging has given me any clues. I haven’t dug into PHP because I’m rather inexperienced there so far.

The The custom shortcode [lmt-post-modified-info] is simply being skipped, not rendered, as I discover when using the Inspect tool in Google Chrome. The curious detail is that if I switch to the simple [last-modified] shortcode, it is working.

One of these posts was an existing post that had some page-specific CSS, and the other was a brand-new post created from WP-ADMIN. In other words, it’s not based on another post’s template that could be masking the issue.

I really like the tool, and am ready to give a 5-star review once this is figured out because it’s in general a helpful and time-saving plugin.

Hello,

Love the plugin! I was using my own code for this previously, and this makes things uniform and will save a bunch of time. Thank you!

The only thing I hate is having a duplicate Last Modified column in my Posts and Pages admin view. I tried a bunch of names, including last_modified, and none of them were correct.

I have the code that can remove columns from these views, see below, but I can’t seem to find the name of either the original last modified or your plugin’s enhanced last modified column.

Since I’m always the author of my columns, I really don’t need your new column, but I’m fine to get rid of the original last modified column instead.

Thanks!

add_filter('manage_post_posts_columns', function ( $columns ) 
// Removes unwanted columns from the posts admin view //		   
{
    unset($columns['tags'], $columns['last_modified'], $columns['comments']);
    return $columns;
} );

This is such a handy plugin. But it hasn’t been updated in a long while. Any chance of an update just to get rid of the warning on the plugin page?

Hello,

we want to use your plugin to show Author + Last Update on a WordPress Page.

Unfortunately your Plugin show both Author + Date + Time (%sep% and %time%)

How can we edit the plugin in a way that %sep% and %time% is NOT shown anymore?

Or can you add an option within the plugin to show only Author, only data, only author + date, or show all?
That would be helpful.

Cheers
Troy

Hi Evan,

Thank you for this great plugin! I have a question, or rather, a feature request.

I have ACF to update fields on a separate post. These updated fields on displayed on the home page of a site. I want to know if you can add this feature:

The shortcode could include a parameter of [last-modified post=”123″] where “123” is the post id of a different post/page.

I could see this being useful in many cases. As of now, I’ve got a manual update on the Fields page. I would love to automate this using your plugin’s shortcode. It’s already installed, and this would indeed be a “Read only” request.

Thanks!

I translated all the plugin’s strings to my site’s language using Locotranslate using the recommended language file location languages/loco/plugins/last-modified-timestamp-fi.po. Any idea why the translated language version doesn’t appear to be used in the back end?

Can I add a last modified date under an audio link?

Thanks

Hi, I have just imported “Last modified timestamp”. Very easy to install and work with, but I have a question. Is it any possibility to center the text?

Hi , its a good plugin, why dont you keep it updated with the new version.
i dont see any major changes , just udpdate and keep it active in wp plugin repo?

thanks for this plugins.

Hello, the plugin work fine for me, but i have some questions.

What time zone are you consulting to generate am or pm?

Whay for searches without results nothing is printed?

https://imderty.gov.co/imdertynueva/?s=hola

Of rest this plugin has worked for me excellent thanks

I activated the plugin and I can only see the @ sign and nothing else. Any indication?

First thanks for providing such a useful plugin! But I encountered some issue when combining this plugin with our theme.

I tried to add last modified timestamp in a title attribute of a link tag but we always got the following output:

<span title="<span class="last-modified-timestamp">2019-01-01<span>">
  Last modified: <span class="last-modified-timestamp">2019-01-01<span>
</span>

So the output is invalid nested with HTML tags in attribute. Could you please add an option to remove the HTML tags?

Thanks!

hi bro, i am using your plugin and i like it but, at the main post page on wp-admin, i want to remove this last update section, look at pic look

I am attempting to reformat the time in WordPress admin tables and using this code snippet. What am I doing wrong?

function my_lmt_defaults( $d ) {

    $d['contexts']['messages']['timef'] = 'm/j/Y \a\t g:ia';

    return $d;
}
add_filter('last_modified_timestamp_defaults','my_lmt_defaults');

Another vote for this feature requested earlier.

On any site with more than two users it can be extremely helpful to know which user made the last revision to a post or page.

I found a script that a GitHub user wrote to display the username alongside the date. Hopefully that will help simplify adding this feature!

Your plugin is so helpful for me, and now needed an extra little feature of how is it possible to generate custom field like name: modified_date value: Jun 2, 2018 (for eg.) when post is modified.
This custom field is needed for me to pair it up with other output.

Hi,

I inserted modify date into post meta in [last-modified datef=”Y-m-d” format=”%date%” /]
form about three weeks ago.

And I did crawling work for all my posts in Google Search Console again, but still post date shows up instead of modify date.

Could you tell me how do i fix this?

Thank you.

Hello,

Great plugin, thank you very much.

Can you help me display only the month and the year? I’m using the shortcode on my posts but it shows day, month, year and hour.

Hi,

I want to change modify date format from month/day, year to 2018-03-24

I read “How to use the [last-modified] shortcode?” but i dont know how to apply date options in shortcode.

Please let me know how do i that.

my website is here

Thank you.

Hi. Thanks for the plugin. I have one specific question:

Is it possible to add the “edit” button and functionality to “Last modified on: ” value? Basically I can imagine the same function which can be found withing the “published”. Sometimes I make some slight changes to the posts, but I am not affecting the content. So I don′t want to have all the posts, where I am showing the modified date, to look like modified at the same date.

Thanks a lot for the answer. I can not find any other solution on internet.

the date and time of the last update isnt correct how can i fix this please

Thank you for plugin! Could you please say how to use shortcode in custom field, i want to get last modified stamps in all custom fields of my posts. It means it should automatically get into custom field like.

field name: custom_date field value:[last_modified]

It is showing wrong time. How to fix this?

Hi,

I would like instead of the standard date and time format: Last updated on Sep 21, 2017 @ 09:39

To show only date and the full name of the month like: Last updated on September 21, 2017

How can I do this?

Thank you in advance.

Hello,

I have been trying to add the ? last modified ? date on my articles thanks to your shortcode but, I dontt know what I’m doing wrong, it’s not displaying the actual date but only the letters used in the code (‘M j, Y @ G \h i \m\i\n’). I’m sure I did something silly but I can’t figure out what?
I’m using the Twenty-Twelve theme, by the way.

Thanks!!

Hi, this is a great plugin to have and quite handy. Can you help me with some modification?

The current set up i’m using is this inside the single post template.
Updated on <span class="update-date"><?php echo get_the_last_modified_timestamp() ?></span>

This outputs to: Updated on Mar 9, 2017 @ 10:20

I’d like to make the output to 09/03/2017 instead.

Plugin instructions get a bit complex once it goes into using different formats.

Thanks.

As you can see (look at the first block image at the top of the page) the Modified date sits right up against the title of the blog post. How can I add a space there?

Thank you

Need to Improvement based on View Mode value

• List View
• Excerpt View

By default value arrived like excerpt view.
When we have used list view update your modified date like (10 hours before & without time (only date value )).

This is essentially a re-bump of THIS REQUEST.

In the “Last Modified” column on the WP-Admin side, can we add who made the last modification, please? We’ve had several pages/posts that were modified with spammy stuff, so this would allow us to track down (potentially) which account was compromised.

On sites where there’s a few number of users, we can easily track that down. On larger sites (25+ writers), it becomes more of a challenge.

Thanks!
