## Beschrijving

Creates the `[lastupdated]` shortcode to display the date and/or time of the last
update to a post or page. If used without any arguments, it will display the date
in the format configured in the Settings > General tab. It supports several optional
arguments: format, before, and after. These options allow you to change how the 
date/time is formatted and if anything should appear before or after the date/time
is displayed.

## Installatie

 1. Download the latest zip file and extract the `last-updated-shortcode` directory.
 2. Upload this directory inside your `/wp-content/plugins/` directory.
 3. Activate ‘Literal Shortcode’ on the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress.
 4. Insert the shortcode in a post or page to return the date/time it was last modified.

## FAQ

  What is the shortcode?

You can use either `[lastupdated]` or `[lastupdate]`, they both work identically.

  What formatting options can I use

You can use any of the special date variables listed at this WordPress [codex page](https://codex.wordpress.org/Formatting_Date_and_Time).
If you want to insert plain text (like the word “at” for instance) escape each letter
with a backslash, \l\i\k\e \t\h\i\s.

  How do I insert this in theme files?

Just wrap the shortcode in `<?php do_shortcode( ); ?>`. So to get the default display,
just insert `<?php do_shortcode( [lastupdated] ); ?>`

  Why did you make this?

Everyone likes a good shortcode!

  Can I change the shortcode?

Yes, just open `last-updated-shortcode.php` and add or change what text you want
to trigger the shortcode in on of the arrays near the bottom. If this gets any kind
of popularity, I’ll make that easier by adding an options page.

  Can you add this feature I just thought of?

Can I? Yes. Will I? Yes, if I think it would be a helpful addition. I’m trying to
keep things clean and simple, but there’s always room for improvement, so let me
know if you think a feature is lacking!

 [fjordkommission](https://profiles.wordpress.org/fjordkommission/) 8 oktober 2018

Although it hasn’t been updated in years, this plugin is still working fine, even
with WordPress 4.9.8. Through the Editor in the Appearance menu (“Design” in the
German edition of WP) you can directly edit the plugin’s PHP file where you can 
set the text you wish to be displayed. Never worry about keeping your blog posts
marked as updated. Simple and effective. Five stars all the way.

So simple to use. I install this on every site I create where there are legal pages
like: terms of use, privacy policy, etc.
