I want to show the modified date of a post next to the publish date. It´s important for my blog to show the customers that the post is always up to date.
Is there a possibility to show or add the modified date next to the publish date on a post?
Thank you for your help.
Hi,
One way would be to use a plugin that has that option. The other would be to make some modifications to the theme. Here is a related topic

You need to edit the corresponding file from the theme, according to the post template style that you are using.
For example if you are using Post template style 2, opening the single_template_2.php file from the main theme folder you will see the line that needs to be replaced

Like this

Then enter this code in Theme panel->Custom Css
.td-module-meta-info {
display:inline-flex;
}
.the-modified-date {
padding-left:5px;
padding-right:10px;
padding-top:2px;
}
You can use an existing class instead of the one currently in the code

This way there would be no need to enter the Css code in Theme panel.
At the moment there is no setting in the theme that would allow the modified date to be displayed on posts. That is why you could probably search for a plugin that you can use. Or try the method presented above.
Thanks
