Hi,
I would like to have a date posted and the date updated under the title tag of each post. It should read as follows:
“Posted on May 4, 2022 – Updated on October 4, 2022 by Derek(Author name)”
This should be in a smaller text than the writing on the page. I do wonder how this will work as within each post, there is only 1 single date that you can enter. When I go to update a post, how will it keep my original “posted” date?

Updated date.You can make more duplicates of those blocks, and remove the dynamic data, and use them to show some static text, such as
