Support for article:modified_time
Is it possible to add support for article:modified_time? This would probably require jekyll itself to support housekeeping of post modification dates?
We could, like jekyll-sitemap, rely on jekyll-last-modified-at to provide the information. How do other sites (Facebook, Twitter, etc) use this info?
@pathawks to be honest I don't know.
Since this meta tag in http://ogp.me, I think it must be used by Facebook somehow. Although I understand having it listed in ogp probably doesn't mean is within the scope of jekyll-seo-tag.
I asked on stackoverflow and ogp mailing list for evidence of real world usage by Facebook, but got no answer so far.
The reason I opened this issue is because I'm writing a program that scrapes blog posts over the internet. Quite a few of wordpress / joomla blogs have this meta tag, while all jekyll blogs do not.

The resources of the Jekyll team are limited, and so we are asking for your help.
If this is a bug and you can still reproduce this error on the master
branch, please reply with all of the information you have about it in order to keep the issue open.
If this is a feature request, please consider whether it can be accomplished in another way. If it cannot, please elaborate on why it is core to this project and why you feel more than 80% of users would find this beneficial.
This issue will automatically be closed in two months if no further activity occurs. Thank you for all your contributions.
One of the major benefits of Last-Modified-At (LMA) is the ability to sort content based on last modified, allowing your users to see your freshest content first (example of what I mean for Hugo). LMA also allows users to easily add meta data to show last modified date, helping readers know when a post was last touched. In addition, use of LMA can be used to produce machine-readable time
elements embedded in the content to aid content accessibility.
BTW, jekyll-sitemap plugin honors last_modified_at
front-matter variable for generating sitemap.xml. I guess this should be a standard enforced at jekyll core
itself.
