Hello,
Thank you for contacting Rank Math and sorry for any inconvenience that might have been caused due to that.
Could you please clarify where you want to add/change this date format is it precisely on the Rank Math’s SEO title or on the actual WP Post title?
For Rank Math’s SEO title, you will have to create a custom variable that you can use in the SEO meta snippet section. To achieve this please insert this code in your theme’s functions.php file:
add_action( 'rank_math/vars/register_extra_replacements', function(){
rank_math_register_var_replacement(
'current_date_M',
[
'name' => esc_html__( 'Current month', 'rank-math' ),
'description' => esc_html__( 'Current server time displaying month in custom format', 'rank-math' ),
'variable' => 'current_date_M',
'example' => custom_date_callback(),
],
'custom_date_callback()'
);
});
function custom_date_callback(){
return date_i18n( 'Y/m/d \a\t g:ia' );
}
For this code, we have created the custom variable as %current_date_M% which is what you need to insert in the Meta snippet of the post you wish to include the date.
Hope this is helpful. We really look forward to helping you more.
Thank you.

Hello,
Thank you for keeping in touch with us.
In this case, you may insert this line in the call back function of the filter my colleague provided:
return date_format(new DateTime(get_the_modified_time()), 'c');
If you wish to only get the modified date of the post, you can use this instead:
return date_format(new DateTime(get_the_modified_date()), 'c');
Hope that helps and please do not hesitate to let us know if you need our assistance with anything else.
