From the readme

Modified Date Control Control the modified date for a post with Gutenberg. Installation You can install the package via Composer: Usage Activate the plugin in WordPress and you will see a new panel available under the "Summary" section in Gutenberg: The panel will allow you to set a modified date for a post or allow the modified date to be set to the current date and time upon update. Out of the box, the plugin will continue to allow updates to the modified date unless disabled on a per-post basis. If you check Allow Updates to Modified, the modified date will be set to the current date and time when the post is updated. You will be unable to set your own modified date. If you uncheck the box, you will be able to set your own modified date. Saving the post will not cause the modified date to be updated, either, unless you manually updated it. [!NOTE] This plugin does not have support for non-Gutenberg editors. Filters wpmodifieddatecontroldefaultallowupdates Modify the default state
