Simple modification that adds date/time to each faq.

Great feature to have if you have your SITE POLICIES within the FAQ section.

Click the INSTALL button (to your right) if you want to be informed of updates.

So everything will be dated today? Anyway to enter the date in manually?

no manual ... all automatic

FYI
You can modify the query to update dateline to a previous date. Just change the UNIX_TIMESTAMP() to a previous date (unix time).

This is a great hack. I was just thinking the other day that someone could copy my article(s) and say they had it first and copyrighted. This will help.

The instructions are missing the step for admincp/faq.php I believe.

run this query: (add TABLE_PREFIX if you use one)
ALTER TABLE `faq` DROP `dateline`;
thereafter, run the queries found on the instructions again

follow directions on the newly uploaded file

Will you be updating this for 3.5.0? I would like to have this. ;)

currently, it's not possible without editing the files -- still waiting for vBulletin to add some hooks

Well, can you release a version with file edits until they do some hooks for it? ;)
