 * Hello Hestia team,
 * I have a lot of blog posts that I always update when I get the chance. Among 
   other things, to get a better ranking on Google and to keep them up to date. 
   But that just doesn’t work with the theme. I now also have the date for last 
   updated underneath, but the published date always remains there. I don’t want
   the published date to always be used.
 * How can this be solved?
