Request: Last mod. time
I did a search first and couldn’t find it, so if It has indeed already been done, I apologize. :)
“Last modified” information is held in the database, and you may have Txp output that info through headers. I’d like to have access to this info through a tag, so I can output/manipulate the display of last mod. time.
Does this extension already exist, and if not, would anyone be willing to make it?

Re: Request: Last mod. time
Last modified of the article or the whole site?
For the whole site there is a built in way, explained somewhere in the forum ;)
For an article, not to my knowledge.
Plugins:
ob1_advanced_search 1.032b, ob1_search_score 1.0, ob1_pagination 2.5, ob1_title 4.1, ob1_modified 2.1

Re: Request: Last mod. time
I wrote a last modified plugin (I think it’s somewhere around here) for the whole site

Re: Request: Last mod. time
Whoops, sorry I wasn’t too clear – for an article (called within an article/list context).

Re: Request: Last mod. time
Do note that a plugin will add another query to the database. A hack will use the one allready in place to fetch the last modified timer.
So what should it be? Plugin or hack?
Edit: Or combo even? ;)

Re: Request: Last mod. time
hmm. I guess I can live with a hack if its not too substantial — I’m trying to keep Txp as vanilla as possible. :)

Re: Request: Last mod. time
Hehe .. My TXP vanilla days were over at day one. =) I like having things my way ;)
Anyway. The plugin is done. Plugin at my site
I’ll add it to the lists soon.

Re: Request: Last mod. time
When the Heartland Library Cooperative was running on Movable Type, I used this code to indicate when the site was last rebuilt:
Updated on <MTEntries lastn="1"><$MTEntryDate format="%B "$><MTth><$MTEntryDate format="%e, "$></MTth><$MTEntryDate format="%Y"$></MTEntries>
Under TXP, I simplified it down to:
Updated <txp:article form="Date" limit="1" />
The Date form contains:
bc.<txp:posted />
I realize this didn’t answer the question, but it might come in handy for someone later.
