Change date of published news???

How can i alter/change the date of the published news?

I tried changing the "Published date", but it doesn’t work!

Please help ASAP because it’s very important to me

(if it’s matter, I’m trying to put the date from the past month...)

What snippet are you trying to use. You likely need to explicitly set the sortBy parameter (or similar).

I’m using Ditto - 2.0.2 and NewsPublisher - 1.4.

It outputs everything great, but it shows today’s date.. not the one in Manager-"Published date" part (in NewsPublisher [+pub_date+] ).. and I want to change the date on some news (ex. 01.05.2007. tec...)

Also, to add to Ryan’s comment, one thing you have to keep in mind is using [tt]pub_date[/tt] as a parameter (e.g [tt]&sortBy=`pub_date`[/tt] and [tt]dateSource=`pub_date`[/tt]), not [tt]publishedon[/tt]. I have been confused a few times also even knowing this... Hope it helps

Also in addition to that’s your naslovna_vijesti template look like?

Hmm... and what I have to do now to change it?

Call me stupid or confused hehe

Sorry I shouldn’t have fed you with info before the question came

You have to add the sortBy and dateSource parameter :



Edit : Wait a minute... I see you’re using the startID parameter : which version of Ditto are you running ? If it’s 2.x you should change that to &documents or &parents

Edit 2 : re-read the thread, you’re using 2.0.2 you should not use startID anymore, and I am surprised it works since you don’t have [tt]&extenders=`compatibility`[/tt] in your Ditto call. Or maybe Mark had it load by default ?

It worked!!

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
