GL 3.01-3.02 Validate Links and Add Date Column
After upgrade to these versions now always the field "Add Date" show current date.
It is a mistake or so it is conceived?

Problem in the following...
For example, client publishes link 2005-05-20.
Payment have not made during a week and I remove the link with departure to the client of the message:
Your link:

<%URL%>

that was submitted on <%Add_Date%> has been rejected , etc.

Accordingly, in a field <%Add_Date%> the current date that is wrong is substituted.

Certainly, I can create one new field and name it " correction_of_a_bug_in_301" and write date of publication.
It is a mistake or so should be?
Or I am not right, also a problem only at me?

BR,
Bigpat

When validating a link, Add_Date is set to the current date because that's the date it will be set to when it gets validated and is the 'real' date when the link was added (I guess it depends on how you think of it). On the other hand, yes, it does make the rejection e-mail incorrect. I'll have to see what can be done about that.

How about something like "Add Date", "Accepted/Rejected Date" & "Updated Date" so admin can use whatever they want in the email/page template.
