Last Modified Date

From Becca: "One of the useful features on ucsc.edu and other sites is the "Last modified date" in the footer.
How can a "Last Modified date" be added to the footers in Campus Wordpress?
I tried to see if there was some shortcode or another way - a lot of the items online are plugins for Wordpress."

We had this in an early version but were requested to take it out. It can be re-added if that's the desire.

Thanks Jason. Yes, please add this back to the footer.

Here is the last commit where we had it working as we wanted it.

@knice, in the Last modified: paragraph sidebar settings, under Dimensions>Margin>Top what units are you using for the "1" px, em, rem?

[Herm71]

@knice Nevermind, I figured it out

[knice]

Should be 1rem?

@knice I'm preparing to push this up and issue a PR but before I do, here are some screenshots of my environment for comparison's sake. (BTW, the reason the shortcode worked when we tested it in your local-dev is because we moved it to the custom functionality plugin. No additional work is needed there.)

That looks good. We might need to adjust the font-weight, but let's go with that you have there for now. 👍

@Herm71 possible to add this after the global footer, so it looks similar to the way we had it configured here?

We add the global footer in functions.php. Maybe we can add the global footer, and then add another horizontal row with blue background (so it looks like it comes with the global footer) that contains the shortcode for last-modifed?

Here's what it looks like so far:
