Hello there,
1. Can I show read time on the article through GP?
2. Can I show update date instead of the published date?
3. Can I integrate a sense ads without a plugin?
Thank you.
Hi there,
1. Tom provides a function here:

2. This filter will display only the updated date if available:

3. Yes you can either use Widget Areas or the Hook Element to add the adsense scripts:

I'm looking for in-post ads. I will apply the remaining with instructions.
Thank you.
For in Post Ads we advise using a plugin Tom recommends one here:

Thank you.
You're welcome
Where should I put the codes for my questions 1 and 2?
Should I insert in Edit theme? What's the suitable place to put the functions so that its working properly.
They're both PHP Snippets - this article explains:

If you're not using a child theme then the mentioned code snippets plugin is the easiest option
