Last Modified date

Gidday All,

Any comments on this process.

In our pages I would like to use ssi ( last modified date ) to reflect the published date of the page.

We have this problem that a page may be generated today but not published for say two weeks.

Do you think it is possible to touch the file when it is published to change the modified date to truly reflect the published date and if we do this will this have an effect on future deployments.

Should I do something else to display the published date.

Any help appreciated

Regards
Colin

If you touch a file, it will need to be resubmitted. So if you do this, then you will start having a lot more versions of a file than necessary. Even worse, you need to touch in the WA and then you may have conflicts if someone else is working on that file.

How about setting an entended attribute for the publish date ? You could create editions, but I do not know if that is what you are trying to accomplish.

Nipper,

I wanted to touch the file once rsynced to the server, e.g after it has left staging

another solution may be to set an ssi variable as published date when generated and hope that the file is actually not delayed in the workflow process, I can the use an ssi echo to display this variable.
