Link-update date displayed. Any way?

If I update a link is there any way to get such date displayed?
Is <txp:link_date /> able to perform in order to display such information?

..an other little question: I’ve noticed, when I correct links, that sometimes the correction causes a link duplication. Is there any way to prevent that, when corrections are applied to the links stored in the database?

yes
possibly via a mysql query

I can not confirm this bug in my setup.

I don’t think so. There’s no database column for modified date for links (only files and articles as far as I can tell). I just tried changing an entry and the date doesn’t change. I think your only option would be to add a new link and delete the old link.

If you need to show recently added links, take a look at this post. If you just want to flag new links without ordering by date, you could try using etc_if_date to see if link_date lies between now and x days ago.
