 * I want to show the “last updated date” on the front of the post and page.
    so
   I add the following code in the functions.php file.
 *     ```
       function wpb_last_updated_date( $content ) {
       $u_time = get_the_time('U');
       $u_modified_time = get_the_modified_time('U');
       if ($u_modified_time >= $u_time + 86400) {
       $updated_date = get_the_modified_time('F jS, Y');
       $updated_time = get_the_modified_time('h:i a');
       $custom_content .= '<p class="last-updated" style="text-align:right">Last updated on '. $updated_date . ' at '. $updated_time .'</p>';
       }
           $custom_content .= $content;
           return $custom_content;
       }
   
       add_filter( 'the_content', 'wpb_last_updated_date' );
       ```
   
 * It works,it show on every page.
    but I don`t want to show it on my home page.
   How can I do ?

 * You can use [WordPress Conditional Tags](https://developer.wordpress.org/themes/basics/conditional-tags/)
 * At the top of your function you can return early if a condition is met. If you
   have a front-page set you can say:
 *     ```
       if( is_front_page() ) {
           return $content;
       }
       ```
   
 * Returning early would prevent your additional code from running.

 * Switch your code around
 *     ```
           $content .= $custom_content;
           return $content;
       ```
