This plugin is designed for content managers and site administrators who need to maintain accurate modification timestamps for their published content. It prevents the automatic updating of the 'last modified' date whenever a post or page is edited, ensuring that date only reflects significant revisions.

• Controlled date preservation: The modification date remains unchanged by default during any standard update to a post, page, or custom post type.
• Explicit override option: A 'Modify' checkbox is added to the publish meta box. Checking this box before updating allows the modification date to be refreshed, providing full control.
• Simple integration: The plugin works immediately upon activation, adding its functionality without requiring configuration.
• Accurate content history: Helps maintain a reliable record of when content was substantively altered, which is useful for auditing, SEO, or user transparency.
