Editing date of book item entries
by Emily Author IconMail Icon
I have a book item, classified as a “Collection” with entries displayed in the “full listing, 1 entry per page” format ("October 2018 NaNo Prep ChallengeOpen in new Window.) and I wondered if it was possible to show both when the entries were originally added as well as when they were last edited?

Currently, the main book page where all the entries are listed shows when the entries were last “entered,” which is the last edited date, and when you click into an entry, it shows that last edited date as the date the entry was “added,” which is not true.

I just went to check in my “Blog” item to see if this language was the same, and when on the main blog page where all the entries are listed, each entry shows a date, which is the date the entry was originally added. However, when clicking into the entry so that it is the only one displayed on the page, the same language of the entry being “added” on the edit date is used.

Sorry if I’m being overly complicated. The essence of my suggestion is this: is it possible to change the language of when a book entry was last edited to say that it was “edited on a date” rather than “added on a date?”

Thank you!
Emily

Just a bit creepy
