Why would you want to do this? Here are a few reasons:

  1. New visitors to your site haven’t seen your old content. This will help them discover it.
  2. Old content won’t show up in date-based searches on search engines, but resetting the date can make them look fresh again.
  3. People like to share and link to new content, and they determine that by looking at the publication date.
  4. It will highlight older posts by moving them back to front page and in the RSS feed.
  5. RevivePress will improve your blog visibility, traffic and SEO!
  6. And also Google likes updated content if it’s done right.

FAQ

How to customize original post publication date format on frontend?

To customize original post publication date, you need to add this following snippet to the end of your active theme’s functions.php file:

add_filter( 'wpar/published_date_format', function() {
    return 'F jS, Y \a\t h:i a';
} );

Will it work with my theme?

Yes, our plugins work independently of themes you are using. As long as your website is running on WordPress, it will work.

Are posts duplicated?

By default, no. But you can configure it from plugin settings. The date on posts is updated to the current date making a post appear new. URLs don’t change and comments continue to display with the post.

Doesn’t changing the timestamp affect permalinks that include dates?

No, plugin can handle it efficiently by tinkering the Permalink Structure.

Reviews

Good plugin, but they don’t support anything

September 16, 2023
It is so nice plugin in real, but they don't read my message over 3 weeks... X(Twitter) becomes strange and I need their support very much... but they never read it. I sent 2 more but they don't reply at all... The amazing thing is that they read my message quite fast before. They become lazy I think.

Great plugin
