Hi,
Is there a way to show post last updated date/time instead of post publish date in NewsPaper?

If not, any tested plugins we can use? Or modify the stylesheet or code to show?

Best Regards

Hello,

You can enable this option on the blocks -> https://i.imgur.com/DYXykP6.png
With tagDiv Composer, you can add the element Single Post Modified Date in Single Post Template and
you can change the additional text in “Last updated on” => https://www.screencast.com/t/EvfUQMfzkd, and the Single Post Modified Date will show you the last time you edited that post => https://www.screencast.com/t/j74uz43paZj

Thank you!

Thanks Ana, is there any way that it just replaces the first publish date with the last modified date.
As the way you suggested, it is showing the first publish date and also the last modified/update date.

Hi,

Please let me know where.
On the block is displayed the modified date if you enable it.
In the single post template, you can delete the Single Post Date and let only the Single Post Modified Date.

Thank you!

Hi,
Like this (it show both) – https://www.gadgetbridge.com/news/nokia-c12-launched-in-india-at-rs-5999/

The thing is – for many posts we update at times. We cannot go into each one and delete the time stamp manually it will be a cumbersome job. As we are a live news site.

Hence asked if it happens automatically in any way.

Also, both of them are appearing on the posts.

Is there a way if an author updates a post, then only the updated time stamp/last update/last modified only shows and not both. like this – https://prnt.sc/Z7okLL69WmxC

Hello,

You can do two posts template one to have the Single Post Date, and one for the modified date.

Thank you!

That will be added manual work for the authors. There are a few plugins out there that do it automatically. I hoped the team here have used one of them 🙂

Would this hack work?

Hi,

I don’t know, you can try it on staging.

Thank you!
