UpdateStamp – Last Updated Date & Content Freshness Wordpress Plugin - Rating, Reviews, Demo & Download
Plugin Description
Readers and search engines trust content that is kept up to date. UpdateStamp shows when each post was last updated, the right way:
- “Last updated on …” line before or after the content, on the post types you choose.
- Your own wording with template tags:
{modified_date},{modified_ago}(“3 days ago”),{modified_author},{published_date}and more. - Hide on fresh posts: only show the date when a post was really updated some time after publishing.
- Minor edit checkbox: fix a typo without changing the last updated date.
- dateModified structured data (JSON-LD) and the
article:modified_timemeta tag. If Yoast SEO, Rank Math, All in One SEO, SEOPress or The SEO Framework is active, UpdateStamp stays out of their way automatically. - “Last Updated Date” block that also works inside Query Loops, a
[updatestamp]shortcode and aupdatestamp_the_last_updated()template tag. - Sortable “Last Updated” column in your post and page lists.
- Hide per post from the editor sidebar.
- Lightweight: no jQuery, a tiny optional stylesheet, nothing loaded on pages without the date.
Switching from WP Last Modified Info?
UpdateStamp imports its settings (position, text, date format, post types) and the posts where you hid the date, in one click. Its [lmt-post-modified-info] and [lmt-page-modified-info] shortcodes keep working after you deactivate it, so you don’t have to edit old posts.

reviewedBy,lastReviewed), including inside Yoast SEO and Rank Math. - Content Review screen listing every post not updated or reviewed within your review period, oldest first, with one-click and bulk “Mark as reviewed”.
- Weekly email to your editors with the posts that are due.
- Outdated content notice shown to readers when a post is older than you choose.
- AI content labels (“AI-assisted” / “AI-generated”) per post, to help with transparency rules such as Article 50 of the EU AI Act.
