I am trying to have the article to display both the first publish date and the last update date, But I do not seems to be able to do so, Ive tried to use / adjust the coding with reference to Tip: Display article revision date instead of publication date.
I've manage to hide it completely or change the fonts, which is not really what i wanted.
Thanks

Thank you for your question regarding the "Created" date and the initial publishing date of articles.
To clarify, the "Created" date typically refers to the date when the article was initially created in the system, which might be in a draft state. The actual initial publishing date can indeed be different, as it depends on when the article is made publicly available. This means that the article could be created and remain in draft for days, weeks, or even months before it is published.
If you need to verify these dates, you can check the article's metadata directly. This can be done using the Zendesk Help Center API. Specifically, you can use the following endpoint to retrieve detailed information about an article:
Replace
{article_id}with the actual ID of the article you want to retrieve. This will provide you with metadata including the creation date and the publication date.If you have any further questions or need additional clarification, feel free to ask. We're here to help!
