[Resolved] Change published to update date

[Deniz Akay]

Hi,

I want to replace published date with the last updated date on post pages. Normally the code looks like this:

Last updated on <time datetime="<?php the_modified_time('Y-m-d'); ?>"><?php the_modified_time('F jS, Y'); ?></time>

I couldn’t find which file I should change. Thanks.

You could try this CSS:

.posted-on .updated {
    display: inline-block;
}

.posted-on .published:not(:last-child) {
    display: none;
}

I used “posted-on” (not post-on) on both CSS lines and it worked. Thanks.

How can I add the words “Last updated:” before update date?

Just edited my CSS above – can you give it another try?

Thanks, it works. How can I add the words “Last updated:” before update date?

You could try:

.posted-on .updated:before {
    content: "Last updated: ";
    position: relative;
}

Hey guys

I added this code (below) to my CSS as I only want to see ‘Last updated <DATE> By <AUTHOR>

It works but the original ‘published’ date still remains also

Any pointers?

This is what I added (but now removed)

.posted-on .updated {
display: inline-block;
}
.posted-on .published:not(:last-child) {
display: none;
}
.posted-on .updated:before {
content: “Last updated: “;
position: relative;
}

Thanks!

[Andrew]

don’t worry, I figured it after a bit more Googling!

.posted-on .updated {
display: inline-block;
}

.posted-on .updated + .entry-date {
display: none;
}
.posted-on .updated:before {
content: “Last Updated “;
}

Glad to hear that!
