 * hopefully this hasn’t been answered before..I’ve tried searching around in here
   and on google and didnt’ get what I was looking for.
 * Anyway, I was trying to add a “date modified” that woulds show up under a post
   if that date was different than the date posted. which I think I figured out 
   how to do, but now I’m wondering if there is a way I can change the date modified
   field? similar to the method the advanced editing allows you to modify the date
   posted field.
    I’m not sure if I can copy-paste to that bit of code and the touch_time
   function and modify them to add a new date modified field?=.

 * I believe there is a plugin for that. Check this link:
 * [http://dev.wp-plugins.org/browser/last-modified/](http://dev.wp-plugins.org/browser/last-modified/)
 * From the Plugins’ read-me file:
 * `*****************
    * Last Modified * ***************** Description: Displays
   the date and time that the post was last modified.
 * Hope this is what you are looking for!
