How to publish a documents last update in date and time?

I tried with the snippet LastUpdate, but I could’nt get it to work. Can someone help me with this, please:

I won’t to show a document’s last update-time in date and time. As easy as that.


Thanks.

Never used it, but from its description LastUpdate "displays the last edited document", e.g the last time the website was upadted, not the last update for a given document.

Maybe I didn’t understand fully what you intend to do, but you could use the editedon field in your Ditto template (don’t forget to add the dateExtender) or the plain template variable [tt][*editedon*][/tt] which you can format with FormatDate or better use PHx date modifier : [tt][*editedon:date=`%d.%m.%Y`*] [/tt]

My mistake, I didn’t read the documentation good enough. I read $modx->documentObject[’variable-name’], and than i thought I had to make a snippet to make editedOn to work.

But after reading your answer, I went back to the documentation, and I saw that it also could be used as simple as you said: [*editedon*].

(For your information: It was the Last Edit for a given document.)

Thanks.

You’re welcome

You’ll have to use PHx date modifier or a snippet to format the date though, otherwise you’ll just get the unix timestamp
