Hi

In Documents Seller, we only have Created Date and Modified Date and these information are get automatically from the files information.

Where do you see Publish Date ? Could you let me know more information about things you want ?

Thanks,

Tuan

In the Table view, Publish Date is one of the columns. It can't be re-set. It always takes the date of the upload of the file. That doesn't make sense. If anything, it should take the date of the document creation, not the file upload. Furthermore, it should be modifiable in some way.

When you upload a file the creation becomes the creation date on the target drive, not your original date. I guess you are looking for a 'Publish' date as in Joomla content which specifies when something is to be shown in the front end?

Actually, almost any type of real publish date would be superior to the current implementation. At a bare minimum, it would make much more sense to default to the creation entry date, not the upload date. Every person I asked agreed that the current implementation makes no sense.

Not to say that this is an otherwise wonderful component - just that the date implementation is crazy.

Hi all

I am sorry for the confusing in publish date. It is set to the document creation date and could not be changed. I am working on new version at the moment and will make it editable !

The new version will be released on next year and will have many improvement. Big changes, BTW .

Thanks,

Tuan
