275085 - Editing extension description changes release date

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(addons.mozilla.org Graveyard :: Developer Pages, defect)

Description

[Jens Bannmann]

I just changed the Mouse Gestures description via the developers section, and
now the extension page reads "Mouse Gestures 1.0, by Optimoz Team, released on
December 17, 2004".

Interesting, it may be interpreting DateUpdated instead of DateAdded for that field.

Comment 2

http://lxr.mozilla.org/mozilla/source/webtools/update/extensions/moreinfo.php#221

$releasedate = date("F d, Y",  strtotime("$timestamp"));

should read...

$releasedate = date("F d, Y",  strtotime("$dateadded"));

Because of the if/else on Lines 211-218.

Fixed.

It now reads "Mouse Gestures 1.0, by Optimoz Team, released on June 12, 2004",
which doesn't seem right either. I think that is the date the extension was
added to UMO - but the text makes it sound like 1.0 was released at that time...
Which date is it supposed to show? I propose either "listed since {{DATE
ADDED}}" or "released on {{VERSION RELEASE DATE}}".

Additionally, I'm missing the release dates of the individual versions on the
releases page...

Attachment: Fix VerDateAdded to not be null, so it picks it over DateAdded

humm, the version's date added was null. So i'm not sure how the date was
correct before. This fixes that.

Also adds a released on to the all releases.
