 * Hi there,
 * is there a shortcode available to display the “last modified/updated” date of
   a post or page in the sidebar?
 * Thanks,
   Markus

 * Hi Markus,
 * Thanks for getting in touch about this.
 * There isn’t a shortcode available, but that element is output with a function
   called `ct_apex_output_last_updated_date()`. You could use a plugin like this
   to create a shortcode that simply runs that function: [https://wordpress.org/plugins/insert-php-code-snippet/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/insert-php-code-snippet/)
