## Description

This plugin extends the core Post Date block variation, specifically the « Post 
Date » variation of the Date block. It appends the modified date to the block whenever
it differs from the published date (when rendered in the provided date format). 
You can configure prefixes and suffixes for both dates, and you can display the 
modified date on a separate line.

For a full writeup of this plugin, see my [blog post](https://weston.ruter.net/2026/01/19/post-date-block-published-modified/).

This is a prototype or stopgap for [gutenberg#53099](https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/issues/53099)(
Post date: It is not clear that « display modified date » replaces the publishing
date). See also [gutenberg#61920](https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/61920)(
Add prefix / suffix to Post Date block). What eventually lands in core will hopefully
leverage “[shortblocks](https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/issues/73929)” so
that the conditional prefixes and suffixes needn’t be provided in a block settings
panel.

#### Usage

 1. Open the Site Editor to edit a block template.
 2. Insert a Date block.
 3. In the block settings, click the “Transform to variation” button and select “Post
    Date”.
 4. A new “With Modified Date” panel appears in the settings. Enable the “Show modified
    date when different from published date” toggle.
 5. Configure the prefixes and suffixes for the published date and modified date when
    the two differ for the selected date format; optionally enable the toggle to show
    the modified date on a separate line.

**Note:** There is currently no preview in the editor. To see the changes, save 
the block template and navigate on the frontend to a post that has been modified
at least a day after publishing.
