Feature Request: Date Updated

[Mikek]

Greetings!

Sometimes it's hard to stay current with the updates to our favorite systems. I use and appreciate the "last updated" box, I often wish I could tell exactly what's been updated if don't catch it during it's highlighted period. For example - when a single talkgroup is added to a large system, it's almost impossible to find once the highlighted period expires. Changed data can be even more difficult to detect.

So - how about adding the updated date/time column from the change history to the tables in the main section? In fact, to avoid clutter, it could be hidden by default and appear when a new "change history" button is activated by the user. With this, all users would be able to see instantly what's been updated and when.

Your thoughts?

Thanks again for an outstanding resource!
-Mike

I like the idea too, I really like the idea of a button, it's not always there but if you want to see the history you can hit the button.

i dont know about you guys, but what if we could make a per-member feature that the "highlighted" period doesnt exist, but instead the "hightlight" doesnt go away till a member visits the system in the database. that way if you dont visit the database for 2-3 weeks, the highlight is still there when you do go back to visit it.

wondering how much administrative overhead this would cause...

There are some great thoughts in here... let me consider them in the context of the updates and development work that I am doing now.

I would like to be able go directly from my state's database directly to that state's forum. If I am following the Virginia database, it would be neat to have a direct link on that page to the Virginia forum, and visa versa.


Also I would like follow threads or topics in the forum by RSS or XML.


This site is a great resource of information. I will continue to donate or subcribe.
