updated_at with download count
Reported by Michael DiTore | April 29th, 2010 @ 11:26 AM | in Flagship 2.2.1
Hello Flagship Developers,
I have no confirmation of this being a bug, but browsing the
flagship database today, I noticed a suspicious trend in the dates
in the 'updated' column when browsing categories in grid view or
looking at the front page. large number of documents marked as
having been last updated 4/29/10 (today), and a smaller but still
significant number marked 4/28/10.
For example, the Guide to Student Government, all of the documents currently on the homepage, and all the documents at http://docs.studentsenate.rpi.edu/categories/111 all are marked 4/29/10 or 4/28/10.
Upon closer inspection, I notice that more realistic dates are given in the individual document pages, next to the revisions. Perhaps some record property has been modified, but not the document itself? In that case, it might be more helpful to show the date the actual file was last updated, so that students don't suddenly think the J-board has been sneaking changes into their decisions.

The updated_at column has been changing when the download count increments, causing a very dynamic "last updated" date to be shown. Patch in progress.
