Hi all

I'm new to CMS and need to write an app that retrieves all postings modified
within a given date range. Can someone explain the differences between the
LastModifiedDate and RevisionDate properties of the Posting class, i.e. whic
h
one I should use?

The app should also exclude postings that have been modified but not yet
approved. How would I go about this?

Many thanks in anticipation
Andy

Hi Andy,

the last modified date will show the date of the last modification.
The revision date will only show the date of the last approve.

Cheers,
Stefan

Hi Andy,

in addition: there is only one LastModifiedDate - but every revision of the
posting will have it's own revision date.
So you usually use the Revision Date when listing all historical revisions
of the postings.

Cheers,
Stefan
