moderated change or add "updated" date for updated files
It might be helpful to see the date a file was updated, instead of or in addition to the original date it was uploaded (which is all that shows now in the display).

I agree as well. I have updated our Guidelines several times of late, but having the old original upload date remaining is misleading to readers. My only option is to add the update date in the description. But readers may miss that.

There's already an update date at the bottom of the Guidelines and members don't see any "upload date" for Member Notices anyway. The request is inapplicable to them. -- J Messages are the sole opinion of the author, especially the fishy ones.

There's nothing preventing having an optional update notification for Group Guidelines, if Mark sees fit to implement that. But I'd say it's in the "don't hold your breath category." The request as stated here is a five-second fix. -- J Messages are the sole opinion of the author, especially the fishy ones.

Hi All, The Files section now displays the Updated date in the 'Uploaded' column. Cheers, Mark

I support that request. It would be very helpful in one of my groups which uses
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
a lot of small files with frequent updates to some of them.
