[Zope] keeping original dates of objects when importing zexp ?

[Gilles Lenfant]

Thanks Casey.

In my case, I transered some ZWiki from an old server to a new one. =
Zwiki pages display their dates based on their =
bobobase_modification_time :((
I added to the Zwiki a custom view based on the most recent Zwiki pages. =
This view is now screwed.

When CMF object keep the dates in the meta data.

Of course a "retain existing object dates" would be fair in the import =
form (like for the ownership).

Cheers

--Gilles

The answer is that you should not rely on bobobase_mod_time as the =
application=20
modification date of your objects. You have uncovered a good reason why. =
Your=20
application should instead store and update the mod date on its own, =
like the=20
CMF does.
