Freshtag – Last Modified Info & Timestamp, Detect Old Content, Boost SEO vs LiteSpeed Cache

Freshtag lets you manually set and display a custom “Last Modified” date for any post, page, or product. Instead of always showing the original publish date, you can highlight recent updates — keeping your content looking fresh and relevant. ✅ Key Features: Custom meta box in the post/page/product editor to manually set a “Last Modified” date Automatically display the last modified date at the top or bottom of posts/pages Hide the default WordPress “Published On” date Shortcode [freshtag] to place the date anywhere in your content Works with posts, pages, and WooCommerce products Simple setup — no coding required This is especially useful for blogs, news sites, and e-commerce stores where keeping content fresh builds SEO trust and user confidence. How To Use Option A — Auto-insert (no code) In your WordPress dashboard, go to Settings → FreshTag. Under Display Position, choose Above the post or Below the post. Click Save and refresh your site. You’ll see “Last updated: …” at the location you selected. Option B — Manual placement Shortcode (Classic or Block Editor): [freshtag] How it works: FreshTag reads the post’s Last Modified time (WordPress post_modified). Update your post (or adjust the Last Modified meta on the edit screen, if enabled) and the frontend will show the new “Last updated” time automatically. Freshtag Pro (Coming Soon) FreshTag Pro turns FreshTag into a full freshness monitoring system. Planned Pro features: Outdated content monitoring for posts, pages and custom post Email alerts when content becomes outdated Auto‑update post dates (modified or publish) Drip updates to spread refreshes over multiple days Updated content history and logs

Privacy This plugin includes some suggested text that you can add to your site’s Privacy Policy via the Guide in the WordPress Privacy settings. For your own information: LiteSpeed Cache for WordPress potentially stores a duplicate copy of every web page on display on your site. The pages are stored locally on the system where LiteSpeed server software is installed and are not transferred to or accessed by LiteSpeed employees in any way, except as necessary in providing routine technical support if you request it. All cache files are temporary, and may easily be purged before their natural expiration, if necessary, via a Purge All command. It is up to individual site administrators to come up with their own cache expiration rules. In addition to caching, our WordPress plugin has online features provided by QUIC.cloud for Image Optimization and Page Optimization services. When one of these optimizations is requested, data is transmitted to a remote QUIC.cloud server, processed, and then transmitted back for use on your site. QUIC.cloud keeps copies of that data for up to 7 days and then permanently deletes it. Similarly, the WordPress plugin has a Reporting feature whereby a site owner can transmit an environment report to LiteSpeed so that we may better provide technical support. None of these features collects any visitor data. Only server and site data are involved. QUIC.cloud CDN, if enabled, uses LSCache technology to access your site, and serve your content from remote global nodes. Your data is not accessed by QUIC.cloud employees in any way, except as necessary in providing maintenance or technical support. Please see the QUIC.cloud Privacy Policy for our complete Privacy/GDPR statement.
